Transient behaviour in a BWR with Hafnium Cladding : Feasibility study of using BWRs as Higher Actinide Burners at the Example of Ringhals I
Transmutation of transuranic elements is of interest to lower storage unit cost and long-term radiotoxicity. To make use of existing infrastructure, the deployment of Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs) with hafnium cladding and Mixed Oxide (MOX) fuel was proposed, resulting in a hardening of the neutron...
