Various methods have been proposed to transmute and thus consume the current inventory of transuranic waste from spent light water reactor (LWR) fuel and plutonium from weapons. We discuss the neutronics performance of nonfertile, fertile metallic, a

A light water reactor (LWR) fuel cycle is proposed where the reactor core mainly consists of standard uranium-dioxide (UO{sub 2}) fuel rods with typical {sup 235}U enrichment, along with thoria-urania (ThO{sub 2}-UO{sub 2}) or yttria-stablized zircon

Our objective is to develop a fuel for the existing light water reactors (LWRs) that, (a) is less expensive to fabricate than the current uranium-dioxide (UO2) fuel; (b) allows longer refueling cycles and higher sustainable plant capacity factors; (c

The supercritical water reactor (SCWR) has been the object of interest throughout the nuclear Generation IV community because of its high potential: a simple, direct cycle, compact configuration; elimination of many traditional LWR components, operat
