(16) Overall Summary

*KAZUO ARIE1, YASUSHI TSUBOI1, TAKASHI OMORI1, AKIHIRO HARA1, MASATOSHI IIZUKA2, HIROKAZU OHTA2, YUJI ARITA3, HIRONOBU UNESAKI4 (1. Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation, 2. CRIEPI, 3. University of Fukui, 4. Kyoto University)

Keywords:TRU burning, Uranium-free TRU metal fuel fast reactor cycle, Core design, Fuel design, Pyrometallurgical reprocessing

The overall summary on “Development of Innovative Nuclear Waste Burning System by Fast Reactor Cycle Using Pu Metallic Fuel with MA”, which had been performed from JFY2014 thru JFY2017 under the contract with MEXT, will be presented. The result has shown that reactor core design, fuel design and pyro-reprocessing for the system are feasible.
