Actinide and non-actinide production from UO2 fuel in W-SMR: Effects of gadolinium burnable absorber
Burnable neutron absorbers are used for efficient reactivity control especially in light and heavy water reactors. Effect of gadolinium burnable absorber (GdBA) on reactivity, actinide and non-actinide content of nuclear waste was investigated. Westinghouse small modular reactor (W-SMR) was studied...
