Electrochemical corrosion of lower-activity spent fuel simulants, SIMFUELs, has been investigated in support of on-going analogous studies of a real AGR spent nuclear fuel electrode. Two electrode coupling methods have been investigated, to study the

A model to determine the dose rate of a planar alpha-emitting surface has been developed. The approach presented is a computationally efficient mathematical model using stopping range data from the Stopping Ranges of Ions in Matter (SRIM) software. T

Analysis of advanced gas-cooled reactor (AGR) simulated used nuclear fuels (SIMFuels) has been carried out using micro-Raman spectroscopy in order to understand the effect lanthanide species (e.g. Nd, Y, Ce), representative of fission products genera

A model investigating the role of geometry on the alpha dose rate of spent nuclear fuel has been developed. This novel approach utilises a new piecewise function to describe the probability of alpha escape as a function of particulate radius, decay r

A small proportion of irradiated Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR) fuel cladding can be susceptible to intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) when stored in pond water containing low chloride concentrations, but corrosion is known to be prev

A number of cans of spent nuclear fuel from the UK's Windscale advanced gas-cooled reactor have been recovered from over four decades of pond storage to be repackaged. All the cans were found to be flooded and those with cut sections of pins containe
When spent nuclear fuel is being dried ahead of either interim storage or long term disposal it is necessary to be able to confirm that the required level of dryness has been achieved. This has typically involved a vacuum rebound test however this me

A drying rig has been constructed to allow detailed comparison of both vacuum drying and flowed gas drying of spent nuclear fuels in response to the upcoming closure of the Thorp reprocessing facility at Sellafield, UK. Drying will be needed ahead of

The corrosion of unirradiated and unsensitized Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor cladding material, 20/25/Nb stainless steel, was studied as a function of temperature and [Cl−] typical of those found in interim spent fuel storage pond waters. With respec
