Description
The accumulated amount of MOX fuel fabricated at PNC is about 100 ton MOX. The number of irradiated fuel rods is about 40,000. None of the fuel rods irradiated in JOYO and FUGEN has failed until now. This indicates that our design, fabrication, quality control and other technologies are reliable. The achievements of the development of the MOX fuel fabrication technology are concentrated in PFPF, in which remote controlled and automated operation systems are fully adopted. The technology related to MOX fuel fabrication has basically been established in Japan. Moreover, PNC will continue at advancements and improvements of the MOX fuel fabrication technology, which are required to achieve the commercialization
