Abstract:

AbstractThe study summarises current knowledge on microbial corrosion in a deep nuclear-waste repository. The first part evaluates the general impact of microbial activity on corrosion mechanisms. Especially, the impact of microbial metabolism on the environment and the impact of biofilms on the surface of structure materials were evaluated. The next part focuses on microbial corrosion in a deep nuclear-waste repository. The study aims to suggest the development of the repository environment and in that respect the viability of bacteria, depending on the probable conditions of the environment,

Abstract:

Argonne National Laboratory has developed an electrometallurgical treatment process for metallic spent nuclear fuel from the Experimental Breeder Reactor-II. This process stabilizes metallic sodium and separates usable uranium from fission products and transuranic elements that are contained in the fuel. The fission products and other waste constituents are placed into two waste forms: a ceramic waste form that contains the transuranic elements and active fission products such as Cs, Sr, I and the rare earth elements, and a metal alloy waste form composed primarily of stainless steel (SS), fro

Abstract:

Before the final disposal of radioactive wastes, various processes can be implemented to optimise the waste form. This can include different chemical and physical treatments, such as thermal treatment for waste reduction, waste conditioning for homogenisation and waste immobilisation for stabilisation prior to packaging and interim storage. Ensuring the durability and safety of the waste matrices and packages through performance and condition assessment is important for waste owners, waste management organisations, regulators and wider stakeholder communities.

Abstract:

A uranium-based nuclear fuel and fuel cycle are proposed for energy production. The fuel composition is chosen so that during reactor operation the amount of each transuranic component remains unchanged since the production rate and nuclear reaction rate are balanced. In such a ‘balanced’ fuel only uranium-238 content has a tendency to decrease and, to be kept constant, must be sustained by continuous supply. The major fissionable component of the fuel is plutonium is chosen. This makes it possible to abandon the use of uranium-235, whose reserves are quickly exhausted. The spent nuclear fuel

Nuclear decommissioning is a worldwide competitive market. It is also the main source of radioactive waste from the nuclear energy field.

Abstract:

To substantiate the safety and characteristics of fast reactors with liquid metal coolants, a complex of more than 20 stands of various profiles and purposes, well equipped with modern measuring instruments, including hydrodynamic, thermohydraulic and technological stands, has been created at SSC RF - IPPE. In addition, JSC “SSC RF - IPPE” has a complex of fast physical stands, including two critical stands - BFS-1 and the world's largest physical stand BFS-2. The article presents the characteristics and the possibility of stands designed for research in the field of hydrodynamics, heat transf

Abstract:

The concept of a dual-purpose high-power nuclear reactor is proposed. One of the goals is the production of electricity, the other is the production of high-potential thermal energy. It is proposed to use liquid fuel based on waste uranium and plutonium extracted from the spent fuel of VVER reactors (purified from the 238Pu isotope). The fuel is in sealed tungsten capsules. Lead extracted from thorium ores is used to cool the reactor. The electrical power of the reactor is 3.3 GW. The layout of the reactor is identical to the BREST-OD-300 reactor under construction.

Abstract. BAM (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) is developing an electronic measurement system to be placed inside a waste drum, which will be filled with concrete. The goal of this measurement system is to monitor the process of hardening and the evolution of the concrete itself over time to indirectly identify potential defects such as corrosion or cracking. The measured parameters are humidity, temperature, and pressure. In this regard, particular attention was given to the design of the electronic board's enclosure, to allow the sensors to measure the state of the conc

Abstract This work focuses on the reprocessability of metallic 92Mo and ceramic MgO, which is under investigation for (Pu,MA)-oxide (MA = minor actinide) fuel within a metallic 92Mo matrix (CERMET) and a ceramic MgO matrix (CERCER). Magnesium oxide and molybdenum reference samples have been fabricated by powder metallurgy. The dissolution of the matrices was studied as a function of HNO3 concentration (1-7 mol/L) and temperature (25-90°C). The rate of dissolution of magnesium oxide and metallic molybdenum increased with temperature. While the MgO rate was independent of the acid concentration

Abstract:

This present study involves the utilization of mill scale, an iron rich steel industry waste, to synthesize barium ferrate. Ferrate with iron in +(VI) oxidation state is a green chemical with promising oxidation, disinfection and coagulation properties. The X-Ray diffraction(XRD) analysis of mill scale indicates the presence of iron in three forms hematite, magnetite and wustite. Mill scale was dissolved in concentrated HCl. The metallic composition of dissolved mill scale was determined by Inductively Couple Plasma Mass Spectroscopy(ICP-MS). Barium ferrate was synthesized using the dissolved
