Treatment of High-Level Waste Arising from Pyrochemical Processes

  • 1. Joint Stock Company 'State Scientific Center - Research Institute of Atomic Reactors' (Russian Federation)

Description

JSC "SSC RIAR" has been performing research and development activities in support of closed fuel cycle of fast reactor since the middle of 1960s. Fuel cycle involves fabrication and reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) using pyrochemical methods of reprocessing in molten alkali metal chlorides. At present pyrochemical methods of SNF reprocessing in molten chlorides has reached such a level in their development that makes it possible to compare their competitiveness with classic aqueous methods. Their comparative advantage lies in high safety, compactness, high protectability as to nonproliferation of nuclear materials, and reduction of high level waste volume
