Abundant thorium as an alternative nuclear fuel
It has long been known that thorium-232 is a fertile radioactive material that can produce energy in nuclear reactors for conversion to electricity. Thorium-232 is well suited to a variety of reactor types including molten fluoride salt designs, heavy water CANDU configurations, and helium-cooled TRISO-
متن کاملOptimisation Studies of Accelerator Driven Fertile to Fissile Conversion Rates in Thorium Fuel Cycle
The need for proliferation-resistance, longer fuel cycles, higher burn up and improvedwaste form characteristics has led to a renewed worldwide interest in thorium-based fuels and fuel cycles. In this paper the GEANT4 Monte Carlo code has been used to simulate the Thorium-Uranium fuel cycle. The accelerator driven fertile to fissile conversion rates have been calculated for various geometries. ...
متن کاملThorium Blended and Regular Mox Burn-up Studies for Fast Reactor Fuel Cycle Safeguards
Fast reactor fuel cycle (FRFC) is regaining importance because of its vital role in the long term development of nuclear power. The safety issues associated with the fast reactors are now well understood and newer designs can address those from the lessons learned in the past. The same cannot be ascertained about their safeguards issues. Primary reason being the presence of special nuclear mate...

15 صفحه اولSelf-protection Analysis of Denatured Thorium-plutonium Fuel
With growing demands for commercial nuclear power, there is also a growing need for better energy efficiency from nuclear power reactors. In order to reach a high burnup up to 100 MWd/kg, previous research has examined the use of thorium-plutonium mixedoxide fuel as a potential candidate for this high-burnup goal. Though the neutronics studies have looked upon this fuel type favorably, the purp...
