System engineering division of OEC has being carried out a design study of the advanced nuclear fuel recycle system using electro-metallurgical process, aiming for improvements in safety, reliability, economy and a1so in environmental burden and nuclear non-proliferation. But the public criticism against nuclear power is more severe recently, and the situation is changing as seeing in the conclusion of the round-table conference on FBR. The researcher's meetings, in which researchers in PNC and from other organizations attended, were held during December, 1997 and March, 1998 in order to discuss on the advanced nuclear fuel recycle system and technology for FBR to be aimed in the future, and how to execute its research & development, etc. The conclusions of this meeting are as follows: (1)The future advanced FBR fuel cycle system shall be the system which has high potential for maximum utilization of uranium resources, and also for revolutionary improvements of economy, safety, environmental burden, etc. so as to be accepted in the society. (2)Regarding to the process of the future fuel eycle system, electro-metallurgical process that is able to apply for reprocessing of different types of fuel (oxide, metal and nitride) and is flexible for technical progress is recommended. Research & development of this system and technology shall be carried out. (3)The mission of PNC (new organization) is to select the most appropriate advanced FBR fuel cycle system from the viewpoint of the long-term FBR age in the future, and to conduct development of its system. It is expected for the new organization to execute its research and development steadily in cooperation with other research institutes, etc. under the nation-wide assessment and agreement. According to the above conclusions, the system engineering division will enhance the design study of the advanced FBR fuel cycle system and establish the definite concept of the system in cooperation with concerned in and ...
