Nuclear fuel $UO_{2+x}$ power was produced from concentrated $UF_6$ by the DCP(Dry Conversion Process). The characterstics of $UO_{2+x}$ powder, prepared with respect to steam flowing conditions and temperature variations in a rotary kiln reactor, have been investigated with a uranium analyzer, water vapor measurement, and SEM. Fluorine content of the powder could be reduced to 8ppm. The moisture content was found to be optimized.

The Advanced spent fuel Conditioning Process(ACP) is under development for the effective management of spent fuel which had been generated in nuclear plants. The ACP needs a hot cell where most operations will be peformed. To give priority to the environment safety, radiation doses evaluation for the radioactive nuclides were preliminarily peformed in both normal operation and accident case. The evaluation result shows a safe margin for regulation limits and SAR limit of IMEF where this facility will be constructed.

An ICP-AES system directly connected with a separation column was used in order to determine the trace elements in $UO_2$ powder promptly and reduce the volume of the waste solution. The outlet of a separation column, which was filled with Teflon powder ($330\;{\mu}m$) coated with tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) as extractant, was directly connected with sample injection tube of ICP-AES. Eleven elements including molybdenum in $UO_2$ powder were separated and determined simultaneously. Recoveries of these elements were $91{\sim}110%$ and these results were agreed with those of solvent extraction methods. This method was applicable to quality control in manufacturing nuclear fuel.

LCS와 ORIGEN2의 연결 프로그램 MONO를 개발하여 연소시간에 따른 가속기미임계로의 핵특성 변화를 분석할 있는 LCS-MONO-ORIGEN2 코드시스템을 구축하였다. 몇 가지 타입의 미임계로를 대상으로 LCS-MONORIGEN2 코드시스템의 성능시험을 수행하였다. 용융염 핵연료 및 집합체형 핵연료 미임계로에 대한 계산은 문제없이 수행되었다 또한 토륨/우라늄-233 핵연료 미임계로에 대한 연소시간에 따른 Keff 변화는 외국기관의 계산결과와 유사하게 나타났다.

장반감기 초우라늄 원소들(Am, Cm, Np 등)과 핵분열생성물들(135Cs, 129I)이 포함된 고준위 방사성폐기물을 심지층처분할 경우도 장반감기 핵종들의 장시간에 걸친 유출현상으로 인하여 환경오염이 문제가 될 가능성이 있다. 이러한 장반감기 핵종들의 심지층처분 대안으로 소멸처리 방식이 70년대부터 선진국들에서 활발히 연구되어져 왔다. 본 기고문은 이러한 소멸처리와 그 전단계인 군분리 기술의 현황과 향후 전망을 정리하고 특히 현존하는 소멸처리 방식의 문제점을 분석하여 향후 국내에서 수행할 소멸처리 연구에 도움이 되고자 하였다.

Effects of fission neutron spectra in the reactor calculations have been analysed through applications of several cases of spectra in the criticality calculations of fast critical assemblies. They were the application of Maxwellian or Watt-Cranberg type formulae, of region dependent spectrum, of composition dependent spectrum, of fission transfer matrix, and the effects due to the selection of nuclear temperature in Maxwellian formula.

The specific radioactivity concentrations in the coal fly ash obtained from heat producing stations in Korea were analyzed and its radiological hazard for reuse in construction purpose was evaluated. The concentrations of uranium isotopes in the real fly ash measured by TBP solvent extraction method and $\alpha$-spectrometer were found to be about 116.1 Bq $kg^{-1}$ for $^{238}U$, 5.01 Bq $kg^{-1}$ for $^{235}U$, and 121.2 Bq $kg^{-1}$ for $^{234}U$, respectively. The activity ratio of $^{234}U/^{238}U$, in the coal fly ash was in $1.04\;{\pm}\;0.03$, which is similar to that of uncontaminated Korean soil in natural conditions (1.14). The specific radioactivities of $^{226}Ra,\;^{232}Th,\;and\;^{40}K$ in the coal fly ash were also determined using $\gamma$-spectrometer with a HPGe detector The results showed that $^{226}Ra,\;^{232}Th,\;and\;^{40}K$ in the coal fly ash were in concentrations of $101.7{\sim}113.9$, $39.5{\sim}54.2\;and\;315.0{\sim}990.6$ Bq $kg^{-1}$, respectively. With the specific radioactivities obtained from $\gamma$-spectrometric measurements of the coal fly ash, its radiological hazard for reuse was evaluated. The result showed that the radioactivity of the coal fly ash was in permissible level.
