Actinide and Fission Product Partitioning and Transmutation (NEA/OECD)
external URL: http://www.nea.fr/html/pt/
| Partitioning and Transmutation has gained interest during the past decade and the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency, in response to the interest from Member countries, has included P&T in its programme of work since 1988. As a result of the initiative taken by the Japanese government to launch a long-term research and development programme on the recycling and transmutation of actinides and long-lived fission products, known as the OMEGA-programme, the NEA Committee for Technical and Economic Studies on Nuclear Energy Development and Fuel Cycle (NDC) was invited, in 1988, to conduct some form of international project related to actinide separation and use. The information exchange meetings are a key component of this international project, aiming at giving experts a forum to present and discuss current developments in the field. Other activities involve status and assessment reports by expert groups on the broad field of P&T and its impact in the nuclear fuel cycle. |
