ITER is a mega-science fusion project, under an international collaboration of seven Members, to construct, operate, exploit and decommission a tokamak-type experimental reactor at Cadarache site with a mission to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility. The ITER Project started technical activities in 2007 and is now in a serious construction phase. Domestic Agencies of the seven member countries are in the process of manufacturing long lead-time components. Some of the ITER components apply HIP technology in manufacturing processes in view of a number of potential advantages. In this paper, examples and status of application of HIP technology by the Domestic Agency of Japan are overviewed.

Times Cited Count：31 Percentile：87.30(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The establishment of the breeding blanket technology is one of the most important engineering issues on the DEMO development. For the DEMO blanket, developments of the structural materials and functional materials such as tritium breeder and neutron multiplier. Which should be used under the savior circumstance such as high neutron fluence, high temperature and strong magnetic field, are urgent issues. In the Broader Approach activities initiated by EU and Japan, developments of reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels as a DEMO blanket structural material, SiC/SiC composites, advanced tritium breeders and neutron multiplier for DEMO blankets, are planed as common interest issues of EU and Japan. This paper describes the overview of the development program.

In-pile functional tests of breeding blankets have been planned by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), using a test blanket module (TBM) which will be loaded in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). In preparation for the in-pile functional tests, JAEA has been being performed irradiation experiments of lithium titanate (Li
TiO
), which is the first candidate of solid breeder materials for the blanket of the demonstration reactor (DEMO) under designing in Japan. The present report describes (1) results of a detailed design and trial fabrication tests of a dismantling apparatus for irradiation capsules which were used in irradiation experiments by the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR) of JAEA, and (2) results of a preliminary investigation of a glove box facility for post-irradiation examinations (PIEs). In the detailed design of the dismantling apparatus, datailed specifications and the installation methods were examined, based on results of a conceptual design and basic design. In the trial fabrication, cutting tests were curried out by making a mockup of a cutting component. Furthermore, a preliminary investigation of a glove box facility was carried out in order to secure a facility for PIE work after the capsule dismantling, which revealed a technical feasibility.

In parallel with the ITER Program, Broader Approach activities also started this year by the collaboration of Japan and EURATOM. The Atomic Energy Commission of Japan reviewed the on-going Third Phase Basic Program of Fusion Research and Development, and then issued the Report in November 2005. This report presented a roadmap toward the DEMO and beyond and identified research and development items on fusion nuclear technology indispensable for fusion energy utilization. In the present paper, Japanese view and policy on ITER and beyond will be summarized mainly from the viewpoints of fusion nuclear technology, and a minimum set of research and development items on fusion nuclear technology toward DEMO and essential for fusion energy utilization are overviewed.

In-pile functional tests of breeding blankets for fusion reactors have been planned by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA), using a test blanket module (TBM) which will be loaded in ITER. The present report describes a conceptual investigation and a basic design of the dismantling process for irradiation capsules which were used in irradiation experiments by the Japan Materials Testing Reactor (JMTR) of JAEA. In the present design, the irradiation capsule is cut by a band saw; the released tritium is recovered safely by a purge-gas system, and is consolidated into a radioactive waste form. Furthermore, adoption of the inner-box enclosing the dismantling apparatus has brought a prospect to be able to utilize an existing hot cell (beta-
cell) equipped with usual wall material permeable to tritium, without extensive refurbishing of the cell. Thus, the present study has indicated the feasibility of the present dismantling process for the irradiated JMTR capsules containing tritium.

Times Cited Count：2 Percentile：16.97(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)This paper presents an overview on ITER-supporting materials research and development activities and major achievements in Japan during the period from the Co-ordinated Technical Activities to date. In view of the completed engineering design of ITER during the Engineering Design Activities period, research and development efforts since then have been focused: those for reduction of component fabrication cost; those in support of domestic preparations of a structural technical code for construction; those necessary for operation, and been extended to component-level testing rather than pure material testing. They cover materials Research and Development for in-vessel components, vacuum vessel, cryogenic steels of superconducting mgnet and diagnostics components. Major achievements in each research and development area are highlighted and their impact or implication to the design, construction and operation of ITER is presented.
