Development of the monitoring technique for hydro-geochemical conditions of groundwater in low permeable sedimentary rocks with high content of dissolved gases in the underground facility is one of key issues in the Underground Research Laboratory (URL) project in order to obtain the reliable geochemical data. Development of the monitoring system for the groundwater geochemistry was conducted previously at the 140m gallery in the Horonobe URL. Thereafter, improvement and development of the monitoring system have been performed at the 350m gallery as the course of development technology to monitor the hydro-geochemical conditions during the URL construction. In this report, the results including the improvement and development of the monitoring system for the groundwater geochemistry at the 350m gallery and the several examples of data acquisition are presented.

Sodium-bonded metallic fuel elements were fabricated for the first time in Japan for the irradiation test in the experimental fast test reactor JOYO. U-20Pu-10Zr fuel slugs of 200 mm in length and approximately 5 mm in diameter were fabricated in a small-scale injection casting furnace. Each fuel slug was loaded into the ferritic martenstic stainless steel (PNC-FMS) cladding tube with the sodium thermal bond, thermal insulator and reflector in a helium gas atmosphere glove box. After top-end plug welding to the cladding tube and heat treatment of the welding area, each fuel element was subjected to the sodium bonding process. After the inspection such as element length, gas plenum length and helium-leak tightness, six metallic fuel elements are transported to the JOYO site for the coming irradiation test.

For the various irradiation tests, the compartment type rigs that set the coolant temperature individually, and the capsule type rig that can irradiate the advanced fuel pins, were developed in Joyo. Moreover, the online irradiation rigs which can measure or control the temperature with high accuracy had been developed and utilized in Joyo. These rigs contribute the basic research in the irradiation effect on material, and the research for the LWR or the fusion reactor. In addition, the high temperature irradiation test device, and the device which has function of the neutron energy spectrum tailoring will be prepared to expand the range of the irradiation condition. In PIE facilities that are adjacent to Joyo, parts of irradiation rigs or samples can be exchanged after irradiation. Then re-assembled rig can be re-loaded to Joyo. This technique enables to obtain the data on the way to the target burn-up or fluence, and to conduct the longer irradiation test than the lifetime of rigs.

Irradiation test of metallic fuel at fast test reactor JOYO is planned. By using techniques of casting, fabrication, analysis and inspection, metallic fuel elements were made for the first time in Japan. In this paper, fabrication technique of metallic fuel elements is reported. After filling up thermal bond (Na), a reflector element, a thermal shelter element and a fuel slug, the upper plug was welded. Sodium bonding treatment was carried out by vibrating the fuel element under heating. By inspection, it was confirmed that the specifications were satisfied.
