1 Advanced Fuel Cycles? Paul Murray Atlanta November 2012

2 Anything is Possible. Is it Pratical?

3 Used Nuclear Fuel US reactors currently discharge > 2,000 tunf/y with a total inventory of >65,000 tunf stored at reactor sites around the country.

4 Number of Fuel Assemblies

5 Burn-up of US Assemblies Taken from paper:-fuel cycle potential waste disposition FCR&D-USED

6 Used Nuclear Fuel Where do we go from here? LWR? Important to keep options open

7 Drivers Influencing Recycling in US 40 CFR 190 Regulates Iodine and Kr. Prepared at time when US would thought to have 1,000 reactors and would be recycling over 100,000 tunf per year. Covers the entire uranium fuel cycle. Regulates I and Kr Assume capture technology would be relatively inexpensive to deploy. Repository Driven. Final repository will determine the optimum requirements for MA separations or Gen IV reactors? Future US Energy Policy Self protecting nature of UNF.

8 Integrated UNF Management Site Dry Storage Pad / RD&D Platform AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012 Phased Approach leaves options open

9 AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012 Centralized Storage

10 Integrated UNF Management Site Dry Storage, UNF Unloading Facility, Storage Pool Hot Cell La Hague Hot Cell copyright: AREVA / JEZEQUEL SIDNEY Storage Pool AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012

11 Options Continued storage of fuel on the pad. Repackage and direct disposal in a geological repository. Size reduce and direct disposal in a geological repository. Pilot recycling facility. Or a combination of the all the above AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012

12 Integrated UNF Management Site- Recycling Facility and RD&D Platform Evolutionary technology benefiting from over 40 years of operating experience AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012

13 Initial Pilot Recycling Facility Balanced fuel cycle Recycling capacity matched to product demand Propose an initial Pilot 800 thm/y capacity plant that builds on best available technology to minimize risk COEX TM Separations process so NO separated Pu Manage product using existing nuclear infrastructure while DOE develops Gen IV Reactor (50 plus years for first commercial Unit.) LWR MOX is therefore an interim step for closing the cycle. Pilot Facility could supply fuel to, Limited number of existing LWR s or ~4 x Gen III+ reactors or ~2 x 500 MWe SFR

14 Work Force (800 MT/y plant) FTE operation support sub contractors FTE operator FTE owner FTE construction sub contractors FTE engineering Major Impact on Region from Primary and Secondary Jobs

15 Classic Recycling of UNF 1-through cycle Fresh Fuel 8 LWR Used Fuels 8 MOX Fuel 1 Used Fuel Recycle Recycling once ERU Fuel 1 Waste (FP, MA) Actual value depends on fuel burn-up and enrichment AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012 LWR Used Fuel 2

16 Recycling of UOx, RepU, MOX Used Fuel Recycle LWR Used Fuels 8 MOX Fuel 1 ERU Fuel 1 Used ERU and MOX Waste (FP, MA) AREVA Federal Services:-Atlanta Nov 2012

17 LWR Recycle with MA Burning in Limited Number of Gen IV Used Fuel Recycle LWR Used Fuels 8 MOX Fuel 1 ERU Fuel 1 Used ERU and MOX Waste (FP, MA) Transmutation Fuel MA Limited Number Gen IV MA Used Transmutation Fuel

18 TRU Burning Capability (kg/tweh) TRU Burning Capability Recycled TRU High Am content TRU Early Burner ARR Future Prototype ARR Commercial Future ARR Burner Burner with Am with Am Blanket Blanket Cm Am Np Pu

19 Incorporating Advanced Separations

20 Incorporation of Advanced Technology in Pilot Facility Advanced Separations and Transmutation Fuel Production are an addition to the Pilot Facility and not a replacement.

21

22 Conclusions US is unique due to the large stockpile of UNF we have. US has specific regulations that will influence the fuel cycle. Nuclear industry takes a long time to develop and deploy technology. We have many options to choose from. Phased approach to recycling is proposed, Pilot Plant Do not commit the country 100% to anyone technology. Can be adapted and upgraded with new technology. Must develop a simple business case for any future fuel cycle. Fuel cycles will overlap. Final geological repository will drive fuel cycle deployment.
