The NEA is organising the 16th Information Exchange Meeting on Actinide and Fission Product Partitioning and Transmutation (16IEMPT) on 24-27 October 2023. The meeting will be held at the NEA offices...
The long-term hazard of radioactive waste arising from nuclear energy production is a matter of continued discussion and public concern in many countries. Through partitioning and transmutation (P&T)...
The objective of the OECD/NEA Information Exchange Programme on Actinide and Fission Product Partitioning and Transmutation (P&T), established in 1989, is to enhance the value of basic research in th...
Advanced nuclear fuel cycles to improve the safety, sustainability and economics of nuclear energy are being investigated worldwide. Partitioning and transmutation (P&T) is one of the candidate techn...
The Ad hoc Expert Group on Trends in the Nuclear Fuel Cycle (TNFC) was set up to investigate trends in the latest progress and the future trajectories in the nuclear fuel cycle.
The NEA and IAEA jointly organised an international workshop in Vienna, Austria, on 2-6 October 2023.
This study analyses a range of advanced nuclear fuel cycle options from the perspective of their effect on radioactive waste management policies. It presents various fuel cycle options which illustra...
The optimisation of the nuclear fuel cycle is a key issue for the sustainability of nuclear energy. This book presents the papers from a workshop which investigated alternative nuclear energy futures...
Cette étude analyse différents cycles du combustible nucléaire avancés du point de vue de leur impact sur la gestion des déchets radioactifs. Elle examine divers cycles et illustre les différences en...
Experts from 16 countries met on 13-15 September for the 24th annual Working Group on Fuel Safety GFS meeting in Paris.
The goal of the Expert Group on Back-end Strategies (BEST) was to identify aspects of significant importance to countries’ decisions on whether to deploy partially and fully closed nuclear fuel cycle...
The expert group works in co-ordination with Working Party on Scientific Issues of Reactor Systems (WPRS) [including the IRPhE Project], Working Party on Scientific Issues of the Fuel Cycle (WPFC) an...
The expert group critically reviewed integral experiments for validating minor actinide (MA) nuclear data, recommended additional integral experiments needed for validating MA nuclear data and invest...
Some 100 international experts convened in New Jersey, U.S for the Workshop on Extended Storage and Transportation of Spent Fuel and Radioactive Waste from Current and Future Reactor Technologies.
For many politicians and members of the public, the very long life of some of the radio-nuclides in radioactive waste is an issue of particular importance in terms of its ultimate disposal. The devel...
L'intérêt pour l'énergie nucléaire va croissant dans de nombreux pays en raison de sa capacité d'accroître la sécurité d'approvisionnement énergétique et de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de se...
Pour une grande partie de la classe politique et de la population, la très longue durée de vie de certains radionucléides contenus dans les déchets radioactifs pose un problème difficile pour le stoc...
Chaque année on produit de grandes quantités de déchets dangereux, mais seule une faible proportion est constituée de déchets radioactifs. Si, globalement, on a trouvé des solutions satisfaisantes po...
