Systematic investigations of uranium carbide composites oxidation from micro- to nano-scale: Application to waste disposal

The production of radioisotope beams at the ISOLDE (Isotope Separator OnLine DEvice) facility at CERN is achieved by irradiating target materials (e.g. uranium carbides and metal foils) with protons. The materials are usually operated at temperatures above ...

Improved methodology for analysis and design of Molten Salt Reactors

Rodrigo Gonzalez Gonzaga De Oliveira

Molten Salt Reactors is a class of advanced reactors that is typically characterised by the presence of a molten inorganic salt of a fissile material as fuel. At the moment, this class of reactors is considered one of the promising options in the long run ...

Breed-and-burn fuel cycle in molten salt reactors

Andreas Pautz, Jiri Krepel, Boris Aviv Hombourger

The operation of a reactor on an open but self-sustainable cycle without actinide separation is known as breed-and-burn. It has mostly been envisioned for use in solid-fueled fast-spectrum reactors such as sodium-cooled fast reactors. In this paper the app ...

Analytical solutions to a coupled fluid dynamics and neutron transport problem with application to GeN-Foam verification

Konstantin Mikityuk

Code verification is an important part of software development process that asserts code correctness. In this work, analytical solutions are used in order to develop a simple multiphysics problem involving coupled fluid dynamics and neutron transport to be ...

Speciation and reactivity of uranium products formed during in situ bioremediation in a shallow alluvial aquifer

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Daniel Scott Alessi

In this study, we report the results of in situ U(VI) bioreduction experiments at the Integrated Field Research Challenge site in Rifle, Colorado, USA. Columns filled with sediments were deployed into a groundwater well at the site and, after a period of c ...
