Abstract (AI)
The major technological aspects of fuels and targets for the transmutation of minor actinides are discussed. The changes in the fuel properties, the effects on the fabrication processes and the irradiation behaviour caused by recycling of minor actinides (compared to conventional uranium-based fuel) are outlined. The most promising developments are identified.
Key Findings
1
Recycling minor actinides alters fuel properties compared with conventional uranium-based fuel.
2
The paper reviews major technological aspects of fuels and targets designed for transmutation of minor actinides.
3
The review identifies the most promising technological developments for minor-actinide transmutation fuels and targets.
4
These altered properties affect both fuel fabrication processes and irradiation behavior.
