加速器駆動システム(ADS)階層型サイクルから発生する使用済窒化物燃料の乾式再処理について、プロセスフロー図を構築して各元素の物質収支を評価することで、その成立性を評価した。これまでに提案されている、使用済窒化物燃料の溶融塩電解と液体Cd陰極に回収したアクチニドの再窒化を中心としたプロセスの物質収支を計算により評価した結果、1年間操業後のPu及MAの回収率は約99.97%、製品への希土類FP移行量は約1.5%でほぼ一定となり、このプロセスが原理的にADS炉心設計から要求される基準値を満たすことができることを確認した。

Nitride fuel cycle for transmutation of long-lived minor actinides (MAs) has been developed in Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) under the double-strata nuclear fuel cycle concept. This study aims at developing the process flow diagram with the material balance sheet of the pyrochemical reprocessing of spent nitride fuel for ADS to evaluate the technological feasibility of the fuel cycle. Three process flow diagrams were proposed in this work: (1) the currently-proposed process with the molten salt electrorefining of spent nitride fuel, (2) the process with the molten salt electrorefining of the actinide-cadmium alloy after the chemical dissolution of spent nitride fuel, and, (3) the process combining the chemical dissolution of spent nitride fuel and the multi-stage counter current extraction. Moreover, the material balance was evaluated for the process (1) by use of the calculated and experimental data of the nitride fuel for ADS.
