Japan Atomic Energy Agency is developing an innovative design system named ARKADIA to achieve the design of an advanced nuclear reactor as a safe, economic, and sustainable carbon-free energy source. In the first phase of its development, ARKADIA-Design for design study and ARKADIA-Safety for safety assessment will be developed individually. In this paper, focusing on the ARKADIA-Design, the concept of the system is described and numerical analysis codes to be used for the multi-level and multi-physics analyses are introduced. Descriptions of the practical functions composed by the analysis codes and the representative problems in application studies for validation are introduced.

Liquid-liquid extraction for the removal of pertechnetate (TcO) and perrhenate (ReO) is reported using tripodal extractant -hexa--octylnitrilotriacetamide (HONTA) composed of three amide groups and a tertiary amine. The extraction behavior was compared with those using alkyldiamideamines (ADAAM(Oct) and ADAAM(EH)), and the commercial amine-type extractant, trioctylamine (TOA). HONTA quantitatively extracted TcO and ReO in the pH range from 1.0 to 2.5 by co-extraction of protons. Extraction performance of extractants was improved in the order of HONTA ADAAM(Oct) ADAAM(EH) TOA. TcO and ReO in the extracting phase were successfully stripped using neutral aqueous solutions as the receiving phase, and the extraction ability of HONTA was maintained after five repeated uses.

The 31st annual meeting and the subgroup meeting of the Working Party on International Nuclear Data Evaluation Co-operation (WPEC) under the Nuclear Energy Agency of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD/NEA) was held at the head quarter of OECD/NEA located at Boulogne-Billancourt near Paris from 24 to 28 in June in 2019. The activities about nuclear data measurement and evaluation of each region or country were reported at the annual meeting, and the SG activities were discussed at the subgroup meetings. The summary of these meetings are reported.

This report is a plan of research and development (R&D) on geosphere stability for long-term isolation of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) in Japan Atomic Energy Agency, in fiscal year 2018. The objectives and contents in fiscal year 2018 are described in detail based on the outline of 7 years plan (fiscal years 2015-2021). Background of this research is clarified with the necessity and the significance for site investigation and safety assessment, and the past progress in this report. In addition, the plan framework is structured into the following categories: (1) Development and systematization of investigation techniques, (2) Development of models for long-term estimation and effective assessment, (3) Development of dating techniques.
