SAFETY EVALUATION OF KAERI PYROPROCESS FACILITIES

摘要

KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) has been studing the pyroprocess since 1997. For a demonstration of the pyroprocess, KAERI developed two facilities, the ACPF (Advanced spent fuel Conditioning Process Facility) and PRIDE (PyRoprocess-Integrated inactive DEmonstration facility), by 2012. From 2013, KAERI has been studying a pre-conceptual design of the ESPF (Engineering-Scale Pyroprocess Facility). In this paper, the safety evaluation methods and results for these three facilities are described.
