A simplified MOX pellet fabrication process, called short process, has been developed to drastically reduce fuel fabrication cost.The MH powder has characteristic of fine particle and low flowability. It is difficult to pelletize the MH powder directly without granulation into smaller size FR pellet compared with LWR fuel. Therefore, small-scale hot tests to improve the flowability of the MH powder has been carried out using two kinds of methods, and quality of the pellet was evaluated.
