The MUF of a pilot-sealed ACP facility and its sensitivity

The Advanced spent Fuel Conditioning Process (ACP) have been developed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) as an alternative for the effective conditioning of spent fuel for long-term storage or/and eventual disposal. This paper addresses the safeguard ability of a pilot-scaled ACP facility and its sensitivity analysis. For this, a conceptual process and its material flow are analyzed using experiences from conventional fuel cycles, and measurement methods and their uncertainties are assumed for calculation MUF(Material Uncounted For) standards deviation (SD). We concluded from the preliminary analysis of the MUF SD that the pilot-scaled ACP (SD). We concluded from the preliminary analysis of the MUF SD that the pilot-scaled ACP facility with capacity of 30 MTHM/year can meet the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguards goals
