Spent-fuel storage: role in nuclear-waste management

Creators

Description

Utilities have found US policies regarding spent fuel management to be a moving target, beginning with reprocessing; then at-reactor (AR) storage; then away-from-reactor storage; then back to AR storage. Now some utilities must soon make decisions and implement additional AR storage capacity which will suffice until final solutions are available. Dry storage is emerging as an attractive supplementary approach to wet storage
