Inspection and Characterization of Spent Nuclear Fuel in Wet Basin Storage

Creators

  • 1. Westinghouse Savannah River Company, AIKEN, SC (United States)

Description

About 200 metric tons of aluminum-clad spent nuclear fuel and targets have been stored at the Savannah River Site (SRS) in the L, K-Reactor basins, and the Receiving Basin for Off-Site Fuels (RBOF) since 1988. Processing ceased at SRS in the early 90's for facility improvements. This was followed by a re-evaluation of the Department of Energy's processing policies in light of the end of the cold war
