Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) is developing a simplified pelletizing process for MOX fuel fabrication. In this process, the flowability of MOX powder produced by de-nitration conversion based on microwave heating, calcination, and reduction is improved using the wet granulation method. In a previous paper, to produce MOX granules of appropriate sizes for pelletizing them effectively, we proposed a granulation system composed of a wet granulator and a sizing machine. In the present work, we modernized the wet granulator, completed the granulation system by adding auxiliary equipment, and conducted performance tests of the granulation system with WO
powder. The results of a performance test indicated that it is possible to convert raw powder into granules characterized by appropriate size and excellent flowability. The time required to process 5 kg of WO powder was about 70 min, which almost satisfies the target time.

A die filling experiment was carried out using granulated MOX powder to investigate the condition of MOX granules suitable for constant die filling. It was found that the mean particle diameter and the Hausner ratio gave an indication of the die filling for the granulated MOX powder.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency has researched and developed a simplified MOX pellet fabrication process. the flowability of MOX powder is improved by a tumbling granulation method using water as a binder. However, in this granulation method, improvement of the production capacity under criticality control for wet nuclear material is an issue. In recent years, an additive-free dry granulation technology has proposed as a novel granulation method for producing tritium breeding LiO spheres for nuclear fusion reactor. In this study, to confirm the applicability of this method to the MOX fuel fabrication process, CeO powder was used as a simulated material of MOX powder as a basic test for mechanization, and the influence of mechanical external force on granulation was confirmed and evaluated. As a result of the test, good granulation property was obtained by applying a mechanical external force of vertical vibration, and it was possible to obtain the prospect of mechanization of the dry granulation process.

JAEA is developing simplified a plutonium and uranium mixed oxide (MOX) pellet fabrication process. In this process, agitation granulator improves flowability of MOX powder with water as binder. This granulation method has issues, including low production capacity due to criticality control for wet nuclear material. A new simple additive-free dry granulation method was proposed recently to produce tritium breeding LiO spheres for nuclear fusion reactor. In this research, results of experiments to investigate the applicability of the new granulation method to MOX powder is reported.
