Spent Nuclear Fuel

Elements, 2006
The primary waste form resulting from nuclear energy production is spent nuclear fuel (SNF). There are a number of different types of fuel, but they are predominantly uranium based, mainly UO 2 or, in some cases, metallic U. The UO 2 in SNF is a redox-sensitive semiconductor consisting of a fine-grained (5-10 μm), polycrystalline aggregate containing

Safety Aspects of Dry Spent Fuel Storage and Spent Fuel Management

Volume 1: Low/Intermediate-Level Radioactive Waste Management; Spent Fuel, Fissile Material, Transuranic and High-Level Radioactive Waste Management, 2013
As with the storage of all radioactive materials, the storage of spent nuclear fuel (SF) and high-level radioactive waste (HLW) must conform to safety requirements. Safety aspects like safe enclosure of radioactive materials, safe removal of decay heat, nuclear criticality safety and avoidance of unnecessary radiation exposure must be achieved ...

The Location of Spent Fuel Pins in Heavy Water Research Reactor in the Spent Fuel Pool

Volume 9: Decontamination and Decommissioning, Radiation Protection, and Waste Management, 2022
Abstract Heavy Water Research Reactor was the first reactor in China. It adopted metallic uranium as fuel and aluminum alloy as cladding in the beginning. During the refueling procedure many years ago, several fuel pins dropped at the bottom of the spent fuel pool. The amount and the location of the fuel pins were not recorded.

Spent Fuel Degradation

MRS Proceedings, 1990
ABSTRACTThe degradation and dissolution of spent nuclear fuel in groundwaters occurs by three partly concurrent processes: dissolution of mobile species which have migrated to the fuel rod void, grain boundary attack and matrix dissolution. Of the first two processes, both clearly dependent on the irradiation history of the fuel, the first is fairly ...

Optimization of Fuel Storage in Spent Fuel Pool

Volume 9: Student Paper Competition, 2018
This paper is the optimization of fuel assembly placement in the spent fuel pool according to the categorized rules. Only some specifically reactivity class assemblies could put together as the pattern. The allowable patterns, the number of the fuel assembly for each reactivity class and the number of RCCAs are from the nuclear power plant technique ...

Spent fuel management in India

Journal of Risk Research, 2009
The Indian nuclear story is different from the rest of the nuclear power producing countries largely due to the unique nuclear energy path the country has chosen. The issues regarding the resultant spent nuclear fuel are also accordingly different.
