[3H03] R&D of Transmutation System of LLFP by using Fast Reactors

(1)Outline of the Project

*Satoshi Chiba1, Makoto Takahashi2, Toshio Wakabayashi2, Naoyuki Takaki3, Yoshiaki Tachi4, Atsunori Terashima1, Shin Okumura1, Tadashi Yoshida1 (1. Tokyo Institute of Technology, 2. Tonoku University, 3. Tokyo City Univerisity, 4. Japan Atomic Energy Agency)

Keywords:LLFP, Transmutation, Fast reactors

A novel concept of transmuting LLFP by using fast reactors is proposed, which is based on a new idea of a LLFP target assemblies. The transmutation rate, heat characteristics, material properties, etc, will be investigated, and a realistic system will be proposed.
