Biogeochemical controls on the product of microbial U(VI) reduction

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Daniel Scott Alessi, Malgorzata Alicja Stylo, Paul Pao-Yun Shao

Biologically mediated immobilization of radio-nuclides in the subsurface is a promising strategy for the remediation of uranium-contaminated sites. During this process, soluble U(VI) is reduced by indigenous microorganisms to sparingly soluble U(TV). The c ...

Analysis of Advanced Sodium-cooled Fast Reactor Core Designs with Improved Safety Characteristics

Kaichao Sun

In order to meet the steadily increasing worldwide energy demand, nuclear power is expected to continue playing a key role in electricity production. Currently, the large majority of nuclear power plants are operated with thermal-neutron spectra and need r ...

Interfacial Complexation Reactions of Sr2+ with Octyl(phenyl)-N,N-diisobutylcarbamoylmethylphosphine Oxide for Understanding Its Extraction in Reprocessing Spent Nuclear Fuels

Hubert Girault, Yu Lu, Thomas James Stockmann, Zhifeng Ding

The complexation reactions between strontium (Sr2+) and octyl(phenyl)-N,N-diisobutylcarbamoylmethylphosphine oxide (CMPO) were studied at the aqueous vertical bar 1,2-dichloroethane (w vertical bar DCE) and aqueous vertical bar room-temperature ionic liqui ...

Non-uraninite products of microbial U(VI) reduction

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Elena Suvorova Buffat, Harish Veeramani, Jonathan Sharp, Elena Cristina Dalla Vecchia, Nicholas Wigginton

A promising remediation approach to mitigate subsurface uranium contamination is the stimulation of indigenous bacteria to reduce mobile U(VI) to sparingly soluble U(IV). The product of microbial uranium reduction is often reported as the mineral uraninite ...

Interpretation of high-burnup fuel annealing tests

Rakesh Chawla, Paul Blair

The growth of the porosity in high-burnup fuel is of particular interest when considering the effect of fission gas retention within the high-burnup structure (HBS). A mechanistic model of porosity growth under annealing conditions for light water reactor ...

Modelling of fission gas behaviour in high burnup nuclear fuel

Paul Blair

The safe and economic operation of nuclear power plants (NPPs) requires that the behaviour and performance of the fuel can be calculated reliably over its expected lifetime. This requires highly developed codes that treat the nuclear fuel in a general mann ...

Validation of 134Cs, 137Cs and 154Eu single ratios as burnup monitors for ultra-high burnup UO2 fuel

Rakesh Chawla, Stefano Caruso, Fabian Jatuff

A measurement station has been built for the non-destructive investigation of burnt fuel rod segments through high-resolution gamma spectrometry. Four UO2 pressurised water reactor fuel rod segments with different burnup levels between 50 and 100GWd/t and ...

Characterisation of high-burnup LWR fuel rods through gamma tomography

Stefano Caruso

Current fuel management strategies for light water reactors (LWRs), in countries with high back-end costs, progressively extend the discharge burnup at the expense of increasing the 235U enrichment of the fresh UO2 fuel loaded. In this perspective, standar ...
