Transmutations of Long-Lived and Medium-Lived Fission Products Extracted from CANDU and PWR Spent Fuels in an Accelerator-Driven System

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, 2019
This study presents the time-dependent analyses of transmutations of long-lived fission products (LLFPs) and medium-lived fission products (MLFPs) occurring in thermal reactors in a conceptual helium gas-cooled accelerator-driven system (ADS).

PERFORMANCE OF PRESSURE TUBES IN CANDU REACTORS [PDF]

open access: bronzeCNL Nuclear Review, 2016
The pressure tubes in CANDU reactors typically operate for times up to about 30 years prior to refurbishment. The in-reactor performance of Zr-2.5Nb pressure tubes has been evaluated by sampling and periodic inspection. This paper describes the behavior and discusses the factors controlling the behaviour of these components.

Recent Progress in Functional Nanomaterials towards the Storage, Separation, and Removal of Tritium

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 35, Issue 48, November 28, 2023., 2023
Tritium is a prime fuel to generate fusion power, but its storage and separation in pure form are major challenges in nuclear industries. This review discusses recent progress and main research trends in hydrogen isotope storage and separation while emphasizing tritium using metal hydrides, nanoporous zeolites, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and 2‐

A methodology to designate radiation‐controlled areas in decommissioning nuclear power plants

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 11, Issue 9, Page 3204-3214, September 2023., 2023
Five steps for designating decommissioning radiation‐controlled areas in decommissioning nuclear power plants. Abstract Kori Unit 1, which was permanently shut down in 2017, is expected to be the first decommissioned commercial nuclear power plant (NPP) in Korea.

Effect of alloying elements on aqueous corrosion of nickel‐based alloys at high temperatures: A review

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, Volume 74, Issue 8, Page 1246-1255, August 2023., 2023
This review paper provides insights into the corrosion mechanism of nickel‐based alloys in aqueous high‐temperature environments. A good knowledge of the effect of alloying elements such as chromium, molybdenum (+tungsten), and copper on the corrosion and oxide formation of nickel‐based alloys is explored in this paper. Abstract Nickel‐based alloys are

Conceptual Design of a Novel Megawatt Molten Salt Reactor Cooled by He‐Xe Gas

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
He‐Xe gas‐cooled micro‐molten salt reactor (HX‐micro‐MSR) is a novel reactor concept that integrates the technologies of molten salt reactor and closed Brayton cycle (CBC), which has a more compact structure compared with the other types of micro‐MSRs.

Comparative analysis of occupational radiation doses when decommissioning nuclear power plants

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 10, Issue 12, Page 4358-4365, December 2022., 2022
Radiation doses from precedent decommissioning nuclear power plants worldwide are compared with radiation doses estimated from Kori 1, the first decommissioning‐planned reactor in Korea, to determine dose reduction measures that can achieve radiation exposure that is as low as reasonably achievable to decommissioning workers. Abstract Kori 1, the first

Uranium Recovery from Phosphates for Self‐Sufficient Nuclear Power in the Eastern Mediterranean

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Production of phosphate fertilizers (PF), without uranium recovery, amounts to dispersing uranium compounds on agricultural fields. These compounds are naturally hidden in phosphate rock deposits prior to processing. Such a dispersion is a cumulative environmental damage, that may become rather catastrophic in few hundred years, under the current rates
