Experience in producing LEU fuel elements for the RSG-GAS

  • 1. Nuclear Fuel Element Centre (PEBN), BATAN Kawasan PUSPIPTEK, Serpong (Indonesia)

Description

To achieve a self-reliance in the operation of the 30 MW Multipurpose Research Reactor at Serpong (the RSG-GAS), a fuel element production facility has been constructed nearby. The main task of the facility is to produce MTR type fuel and control elements containing U3O8-Al dispersion LEU fuel for the RSG-GAS. The hot commissioning activity has started in early 1988 after completion of the cold commissioning using depleted uranium in 1987, marking the beginning of the real production activity. This paper briefly describes the main features of the fuel production facility, the production experience gained so far, and its current production activity. (orig.)
