... Abstract A full-scale prototype of vertical ventilated spent fuel dry storage canister is tested to evaluate its heat removal performance. Specifically, a temporary shelter is built to resemble the factory encompassing dry storage canisters. Electrical heating components with designed heat...

... Abstract This paper describes the loading pattern, safety evaluation and operating experiences of PWR plant off-site Spent Fuel Dry Storage System (SFDSS). According to the limits from the SFDSS criticality and heat-transfer safety analysis, ALARA principle and AFA series fuel characteristics...

... Abstract Placing spent fuel into dry cask storage as soon as possible allows decommissioning plants to lower site risk, reduce costs associated with management and maintenance of the spent fuel pool, and accelerate decommissioning. The SENTRY™ Spent Fuel Management System 1 is a dual-purpose...

... The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) has been developing pyroprocess for the dry conditioning of PWR spent nuclear fuels since 1997. The ACPF (Advanced spent fuel Conditioning Process Facility) was developed for volume reduction research on spent PWR fuel. Several years later...

... 08 04 2011 With world stockpiles of used nuclear fuel increasing, the need to address the long-term utilization of this resource is being studied. Many of the transuranic (TRU) actinides in nuclear spent fuel produce decay heat for long durations, resulting in significant nuclear waste...

... The spent fuel disposal is a very important step during the recycling of nuclear fuel and the operation process is very complex and dangerous. With the fast development of nuclear power reactor in china, more and more spent fuel will occur and should be treated in the near future...

... around the cladding, but there is little variation across the thickness, of the cladding. It is most significant that all of the hydrides appear to have retained the circumferential orientation typical of prestorage PWR fuel rods. KEYWORDS: Spent Fuel, Dry Storage, Fuel Examination I. INTRODUCTION Some...

... spent fuel storage decay heat power Accumulation and subsequent storage of actinides from uranium, plutonium, and thorium spent fuel of PWR type reactor is discussed in the paper. During period of accumulation 100 or 300 years, actinides are periodically introduced in the storage...
