The periodic safety review of TRP is to confirm the safety activities and get effective additional measures the facility safety and its reliability. We implemented 4 items; for (1) evaluation of safety activity implementation, we confirmed we are adequately expanding its safety activities by the necessary documents and schemes. For (2) evaluation of status of safety activities reflecting the latest technical knowledges, we confirmed we reflect latest knowledges for improvement of safety and reliability. For (3) technical evaluation about aging degradation, we can keep the safety of the facilities important to safety and the sea discharge line, under assumption of the present maintenance, because of "focuses for aging degradation". For (4) planning measures about a 10-years-plan that the operator shall implement to keep the facility condition, by the technical evaluation, we found no additional safety plans into maintenance strategies.

The Periodic Safety Review of TRP is assessment of the validity of safety activities in order to get assurance for continuous operation by adding effective items to extract and to execute for TRP safety. We performed 4 items; for (1) evaluation of safety activity at TRP, as we confirmed organization was ordered and managed. For (2) evaluation of status of safety activities reflecting the latest knowledge, we confirmed improvement of safety was continued adequately reflecting from the experience for safety. For (3) technical review on aging for the safety related structures, systems and components, we evaluated the guaranty of safety under assumption of continuous maintenance till the next Periodic Safety Review. For (4) establishment of long term maintenance program, we found no additional activities into maintenance programs, however, for several installations we established a plan and utilized them for reliability.

Times Cited Count:9 Percentile:45.39(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)A single shot image of a ZnO crystal excited by the EUV laser of Kansai Photon Science Institute was captured. The evaluated EUV beam waist radii from the ZnO emission pattern along the horizontal and vertical axes are 5.0 and 4.7m, respectively. The expected focal spot size of EUV laser and the spatial resolution of the magnifier (including the Schwarzschild objectives and lenses) are however 1 and 4m, respectively. The discrepancy on the spatial resolutions is attributed to exciton diffusion. We estimated the ZnO exciton diffusion length from the effective decay time which is shortened by exciton-exciton collision quenching and which is dependence on excitation energy density. Our results indicate that the short lifetime of ZnO is required to improve the spatial resolution.

Times Cited Count:10 Percentile:60.07(Nuclear Science & Technology)Electrochemical oxidation method, to oxidize nitrosyl ruthenium to the tetra-oxide and then to remove ruthenium to the gas phase, was studied to separate Ru from the high-level liquid waste (HLLW). We carried out the experiments to clarify the effects following fundamental conditions to the electric oxidation, which are (a) electrolyte temperature, (b) presence of promoter elements, (c) evaporation or reflux of condensed phase and (d) using or not using of diaphragm at counter electrode. We found the fast oxidation conditions as follows; (1) higher temperature; 95C, (2) Ce coexistence; 3000 ppm and (3) usage of a diaphragm for counter electrode. However evaporation or reflux conditions do not directly affect the electrochemical oxidation efficiency. Electric oxidation rate was increased 3 times compared with 25C, without Ce and diaphragm for counter electrode.

This report presents criticality safety evaluation of each equipment in Tokai Reprocessing Plant for two types of spent fuels, High burn up 4.2% enrichment U oxide spent fuel for light water reactor and U-Pu mixed oxide spent fuel for advanced thermal reactor. As a result, it was confirmed that the equipments were safe enough for two types of the spent fuels from view point of criticality safety of single unit and multiple units.

This report describes calculated results of inventory of radioactivity in the Tokai Reprocessing Plant with calculation code, based on initial conditions and nuclear data library. The inventories were compared with three types of spent fuels, High burn up U oxide for light water reactor, U-Pu mixed oxide for advanced thermal reactor and the design based fuel for Tokai Reprocessing Plant.

Operation Testing Laboratory (OTL) is an examination laboratory located in the Tokai Reprocessing Plant (TRP). It has provided many research results since 1972 and contributed to TRP in order to safety operation, troubleshooting, and new technology for future reprocessing. In this report, we present facility outline of the laboratory,the several experimental results and future plan.
