In order to achieve carbon neutrality, various types of nuclear power are expected to be used in the future, but there are no disposal sites in Japan, and even if they can be secured, their capacity will be limited. Therefore, for the sustainable use of nuclear energy, it is essential to reuse nuclear fuel and reduce waste, and the management for the effective use of actinide nuclides (AC) such as plutonium and minor actinides with minimum environmental load, Actinide Management (ACM), is important.
