Proton Source Efficiency for Heterogeneous Distribution of Actinides in the Core of an Accelerator-Driven System

Study of a conceptual accelerator driven system loaded with thorium dioxide mixed with transuranic dioxides in TRISO particles

“…They have found that the ura nium tar get lim ited geo met ri cal size has a better neu tron mul ti pli ca tion. Fur ther more, var i ous types of ADS have been worked for en ergy pro duc tion and trans mu ta tion of ra dio ac tive wastes [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28].…”

Time-Dependent Neutronic Analysis of a Power-Flattened Gas Cooled Accelerator Driven System Fuelled with Thorium, Uranium, Plutonium, and Curium Dioxides TRISO Particles

“…Martínez et al [16] claim that high-energetic neutrons are necessitated for transmutation of transuranium (TRU) and long-lived fission products in ADS. There are several other studies of various types of ADS for energy production and transmutation of radioactive wastes (Adam et al [17]; Artisyuk et al [18]; Brolly and Vértes, [19]; Haeck et al [20]; Mukaiyama et al [21]; Park et al [22]; Seltborg and Wallenius [23]; Tsujimoto et al [24]; Wade et al [25]; Wallenius and Eriksson [26]; Westlén and Wallenius [27]).…”
