Description
The principles of storing spent fuel of reactor type WWER and RBMK are considered. The order of management with fuel during storage in at-reactor and away-from-reactor storage are discussed. The methods of high-density storage spent fuel by means of arrangement of assemblies into special basket-absorbers made of boron steel are proposed. The possibility of extending the storage capacity is shown. (author). 10 refs, 1 fig
