504 Includes bibliographical references.
520 3 This book covers essential aspects of transmutation
technologies, highlighting especially the advances in
Japan.
520 3 The accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant
(NPP) has caused us to focus attention on a large amount
of spent nuclear fuels stored in NPPs.
520 3 In addition, public anxiety regarding the treatment and
disposal of high-level radioactive wastes that require
long-term control is growing.
520 3 The Japanese policy on the back-end of the nuclear fuel
cycle is still unpredictable in the aftermath of the
accident.
520 3 Therefore, research and development for enhancing the
safety of various processes involved in nuclear energy
production are being actively pursued worldwide.
520 3 In particular, nuclear transmutation technology has been
drawing significant attention after the accident.
520 3 This publication is timely with the following highlights:
1) Development of accelerator-driven systems (ADSs), which
is a brand-new reactor concept for transmutation of highly
radioactive wastes; 2) Nuclear reactor systems from the
point of view of the nuclear fuel cycle.
520 3 How to reduce nuclear wastes or how to treat them
including the debris from TEPCO's Fukushima nuclear power
stations is discussed; and 3) Environmental radioactivity,
radioactive waste treatment, and geological disposal
policy.
520 3 State-of-the-art technologies for overall back-end issues
of the nuclear fuel cycle as well as the technologies of
transmutation are presented here.
520 3 The chapter authors are actively involved in the
development of ADSs and transmutation-related
technologies.
520 3 The future of the back-end issues in Japan is very
uncertain after the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi NPP,
and this book provides an opportunity for readers to
consider the future direction of those issues.
