Keywords:Accelerator-Driven System, Transmutation cycle, Neutronics design

This study aims to investigate the impact of imputrities in the transmutation cycle on neutronics desing of Accelerator-Driven System (ADS). Through this study, the required conditions for the impurities in the partitioning, the MA fuel fabrication and the reprocessing processes were clarified from the viewpoint of the ADS neutronics design.
