Experimental studies and numerical analysis on physical and chemical behavior of actinide elements in the solutions of aqueous reprocessing process have been done for compiling technical data that are necessary for evaluating processes such as reprocessing facilities. The objective of the present study is obtaining technical data that are conductive to the construction of reprocessing process that cope with high burn-up nuclear fuel, the evaluation of nuclear fuel cycle, and the drawing up policy on reprocessing.
