Solvent extraction of uranium from a nitric acid medium was performed with ,-di(2-ethylhexyl)octanamide (DEHOA) by a single-stage batch method, and the distribution ratio equation of U(VI) was derived as = 1.1. Furthermore, the nitric acid distribution was also evaluated, and the distribution ratio equation = 0.12 was obtained. Batch experiments to evaluate the time dependence of U(VI) extraction and the U(VI) loading capacity of DEHOA were also performed. It was revealed that U(VI) extraction by DEHOA reached an equilibrium state within a few minutes, and the loading capacity was 0.71 mol/dm (M) when the concentrations of DEHOA and nitric acid were 1.5 and 3.0 M, respectively.

Evaluation of earthquake and tsunami on JSFR has been analyzed. For seismic design, safety components are confirmed to maintain their functions even against recent strong earthquakes. As for Tsunami, some parts of reactor building might be submerged including component cooling water system whose final heat sink is sea water. However, in the JSFR design, safety grade components are independent from component cooling water system (CCWS). The JSFR emergency power supply adopts a gas turbine system with air cooling, since JSFR does not basically require quick start-up of the emergency power supply thanks to the natural convection DHRS. Even in case of long station blackout, the DHRS could be activated by emergency batteries or manually and be operated continuously by natural convection.

In this study, while attaining systematization about the technical know-how mutually utilized between geology environmental field, disposal technology (design) field and safety assessment field, the share function of general information in which the formation of an information share and the use promotion between the technical information management databases built for every field were aimed at as an advancement of the function of JNC Geological Disposal Technical Information Integration System considered, and the system function for realizing considered in integration of technical information. (1) Since the concrete information about geology environment which is gradually updated with progress of stratum disposal research, or increases is reflected suitable for research of design and safety assessment, After arranging the form suitable for systematizing technical information, while arranging the technical information in both the fields of design and safety assessment with the form of two classes based on tasks/works, it systematized planning adjustment about delivery of technical information with geology environmental field. (2) In order to aim at integration of 3-fields technical information of geological disposal, based on the examination result of systematization of technical information, the function of mutual use of the information managed in two or more databases was considered. Moreover, while considering system functions, such as management of the use history of technical information, connection of information use, and a notice of common information, the system operation windows in consideration of the ease of operation was examined.

In this study, the basic design study on integrated computer system has been carried out in order to develop the integrated methodologies for future research and development activities of geological disposal system. The key conclusions are summarized as follows: (1) As the result of the investigation of work items and associated flow of information (data) between items in the second progress report by JNC, the interaction matrix and work flow chart have been identified in order to specify the basic configuration of the integrated computer system. In addition, the model chain and the structure of data relation between the repository design study and safety assessment study have been summarized. (2)We organized and examined the system factor and the information process flow in the design, safety analysis, and geological environment study based on the 2000 Report by JNC. Then we analyzed the workflow of geological disposal business when a specific site for a repository is fixed to obtain the system factor and the information process flow. We consider the fracture/porous media, site location (land/under the sea), and long-term stability of the crust (upheaval/sink) as the key factors in examining the workflow of geological disposal business. Then we organized the information change between the design and other study in geological disposal based on the 2000 Report by JNC. We examined the ideal workflow in which the design, safety analysis, and geologic environment study of geological disposal are closely coupled. We examined the scientific and technical base of the knowledge base (the system factor and the information process flow) which is derived from the above to construct the hierarchical structure of the knowledge base for geological disposal. (3)As the result of the interaction matrix and work flow chart for the R&D activities, the conceptual design and the function diagram on the integrated computer system has been proposed. (4)We examined the plan to ...
