AbstractAbstract
[en] This paper deals with the experimental work that is performed at the CEA to study the metallurgical problems that need to be overcome in order to transmute neptunium and americium in PWRs. After recalling the experience gained on transmutation under thermal flux, the preparation of the experimental irradiation ACTINEAU is described. This experiment, to be carried out in the OSIRIS reactor, will test both homogeneous and heterogeneous recycling with different inert matrices and different mass fractions of actinide in the rods. According to prediction, a transmutation rate of over 50% is expected after 600 days of irradiation. 2 refs., 4 tabs., 3 figs
