It is necessary to be enough cooling period for reprocessing spent fuels. The cooling period is depended on decay heat of the spent fuels. In this series study, FORSETI concept has been proposed to reduce latent material radiotoxicity and decay heat of spent fuels. In this presentation, impact on a nuclear fuel cycle from cooling period with FORSETI concept will be presented.
