The dissolution of nuclear fuel debris generated from Fukushima nuclear power plant accident is necessary for the accurate and precise analyses of actinides and fission products. We have proposed the chemical conversion of insoluble nuclear fuel debris into soluble substances by alkaline fusion method. In the present work, the dissolution behavior in Nitric acid and Hydrochloric acid of simulated nuclear debris including UO2-ZrO2 by alkaline fusion reaction with reagent Na2O2 were studied. For the simulated debris with U-Zr mole ratio of 1 to 1 and sintered for 10 minutes at 1400℃, they were ground and mixed with Na2O2 with mass ratio of 1 to 10. After heating at 650℃ for 1 hour, they were dissolved with 6mol/l nitric acid. The dissolution rate reached more than 99% by the weight of residue after pressure filtration.
