Modern methods of minor actinides transmutation and burning out in reactors with different neutron spectrum are considered. The factors limiting the efficiency of transmutation and methods of their influence reducing are considered and analyzed. The influence of different minor actinides loads in the reactore core on the behavior of the reactor was evaluated. The effect of minor actinides loading during reacore core accidents is estimated.
