We developed uranium mass assay systems for 200-litter wastes drums applied neutron and 
measurements by NDA method. In this intermediate report we will describe measurement systems and trial data. The systems are composed of the 16 pieces of helium-3 proportional counters for neutron detection and a large sized NaI(Tl) scintillation detector for -ray detection. The extensive testing trials using the calibrated uranium sources with different enrichment and some kinds of matrices in drums were performed. Through the one year testing the useful experiences of this system concerning neutron and -ray measurements for uranium mass were obtained. Almost all instruments and software were so good performance as is designed. As the next step we are going to schedule to try measurements for actual wastes that are stored in the Uranium Refining and Conversion Plant at Ningyo-toge, and put practical uses near future. Our research was accomplished with the support of Los Alamos National Laboratory.

We perform Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) on turbulent flows and plume dispersions within and over regular arrays of cubic buildings with various roughness densities and investigate the influence of the building arrangement pattern on the characteristics of mean and fluctuation concentrations for the assessment of human health hazard from toxic substances and the safety analysis of flammable gas.

The short process is considered to be a main concept which has high feasibility in Fast Reactor Cycle Technology Development (FaCT). In this study, a small-scale fabrication test was carried out to investigate characteristic of MOX pellet made of granulated MOX powder blended with dry-route recycle powder, for the first time, as a basic test concern with the short process. As the results, it was found that the sintered density of the pellet clearly depends on the preparing conditions and content of recycle powder. The results is intended to be utilized in the investigation of engineering-scale test conditions.

Three and half years has been passed from the start of IFMIF/EVEDA. In IFMIF/EVEDA, tasks for Lithium Target System consists of 5 validation tasks (LF1-5) and a design task (ED3), and are shared by Japan and Europe. Japan is covering the construction and operation of EVEDA Li Test Loop (LF1), diagnostics (LF2), purification system (LF4), remote handling system (LF5) and engineering design (ED3) with the contribution from universities. The present status of these tasks will be reported in the conference.

A feasibility study for oxygen getter options is conducted in JAEA to reduce cladding inner corrosion of FBR MOX fuels to attain high burn-up. Investigation of oxygen getter loading options for pellet type MOX fuels as well as evaluation results of oxidation behavior of the candidate materials are reported.
