A nuclear reactor adapted for generating energy and/or decontaminating nuclear fuel using a plurality of energy beam generating accelerator devices configured for inducing a photo-fission reaction in the nuclear fuel.Robert F. BodiMartin A. Stuart...
One major issue with nuclear power is what to do with the waste products when the fuel has been exhausted. Although no longer suitable to generate power, this waste is extremely dangerous if stored incorrectly. Highly radioactive and the most problematic waste, known as ‘high level’ nuclear ...

Low-level radioactive waste disposal Grouping analysis Soil Concrete Dry active waste Composite sample 1. Introduction Various kinds of the low-level radioactive waste are generated from nuclear facilities such as nuclear power plants, research institutes, nuclear fuel manufacturers, etc. in South Korea...
X-Energy, one of several companies building safer and less expensive "Gen IV" nuclear reactors, hopes to reverse that trend. X-Energy's pebble-bed designs run on nuclear fuel encased in up to 220,000 billiard-sized graphite balls -- which the company says makes a meltdown physically imposs...
It also applies to the treatment of contaminated ion exchange resins in the industrial areas treating irradiated nuclear fuel and nuclear weapons. The method and device of the invention also apply to the treatment of sludge from treatment plants or industrial effluent such as those in the ...
A nuclear reactor creates waste products that must be buried for long-term disposal. These waste products are fuel rod assemblies containing spent nuclear fuel. The assemblies are hot and radioactive when taken from the reactor, and gradually become less so. At periodt, the radiation level is ...
