動燃における先進的核燃料リサイクル技術開発において,照射燃料試験室では,マイナーアクチニド(MA)核種を含有するMOX燃料の照射挙動とMA核種の燃焼挙動評価の研究を行っている。その一つとして,「常陽」で照射した,約0.9wt%の$$^{241}$$Amを含有したMOX燃料ピン(B8-HAMピン)の$$^{241}$$Am含有量を分析し,その燃焼度依存性を評価した。その結果,B8-HAMピンに含まれる$$^{241}$$Am含有量の燃焼度依存性は観察されず,最大燃焼度26.2GWd/tまでの範囲において,約1%程度のほぼ一定の値を示した。これは,ORIGEN2による計算値との比較等から,「常陽」での照射中の消滅と(各サイクル間の)冷却期間における$$^{241}$$Puからの生成が均衡していることによるものと考えられる。

We are studying quantitative analysis of Minor Actinides (Np, Am, Cm) in irradiated fuels as a part of the PNC research project for advanced nuclear fuel recycle system. In alpha-gamma section, irradiation behavior of MOX fuel and burning characteristic evaluation research of the MA nuclide which contain the minor actinide species are carrying out. We measured $$^{241}$$Am content of the MOX fuel pin which contained $$^{241}$$Am of about 0.9wt% before irradiation and were irradiated up to 26.2GWd/t in the JOYO reactor. The results are as follows. Burn-up dependence of the $$^{241}$$Am content in this samples was not observed. The $$^{241}$$Am content showed the fixed value of about 1% in the range from 0 to 28GWd/t. This reason is assumed that Am produced by $$beta$$-decay of $$^{241}$$Pu for cooling times between each cycles valances it in disappearance under irradiated in JOYO based on the calculated value by ORIGEN-II code.
