Fuel Cycle Options for Optimized Recycling of Nuclear Fuel

The reduction of transuranic inventories of spent nuclear fuel depends upon the deployment of advanced fuels that can be loaded with recycled transuranics (TRU), and the availability of facilities to separate and reprocess spent fuel. Three recycling strategies are explored in this study: (1) Recycl...
