Creators

Description

Experience acquired in France in the field of reprocessing spent fuels from fast breeder reactors is recalled. Emphasis is put on characteristics and quantities of spent fuels reprocessed in La Hague and Marcoule facilities. Then reprocessing developments with the realisation of the new pilot plant TOR at Marcoule, new equipments and study of industrial reprocessing units are reviewed

Abstract (French)

Dans cette communication on rappelle l'experience acquise en France dans le domaine du retraitement des combustibles des reacteurs a neutrons rapides et notamment les caracteristiques et les quantites de combustibles traites dans les installations de La Hague et de Marcoule. On evoque ensuite les efforts de developpement actuellement entrepris avec la realisation du nouvel atelier experimental TOR a Marcoule (Traitement d'Oxydes Rapides), la mise au point d'appareillages nouveaux et les etudes conceptuelles d'unites de retraitement industrielles
