Book excerpt: A fabrication facility with related process equipment has been constructed to fabricate fuel rods containing 233U and thorium oxide by the bulk oxide-vibratory compaction route and is now in operation at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. While the initial motivation for the facility was to fabricate 233U-bearing 1/2-in.-dia x 46-in.-long Zircaloy-2 clad fuel rods for criticality experiments at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, sufficient flexibility has been incorporated into the facility to accommodate a variety of development work on a pilot-plant scale. The facility consists of a number of permanent alpha-tight cubicles which are shielded with 41/4-in. steel. The fabrication process is carried out remotely in these cubicles with the exception of several gloved-hand operations which occur where the dexterity required for manipulation exceeds that of the remote castle-type tongs. The fabrication equipment that has been installed in the facility performs the operations associated with oxide powder comminution and classification, vibratory compaction of oxide in fuel tubes, tube closure, fuel rod decontamination, and fuel rod inspection. Both the facility and the process equipment are described in detail, and detailed assembly drawings of the process equipment are included. (auth).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Thorium Energy Conference (ThEC13) gathered some of the world’s leading experts on thorium technologies to review the possibility of destroying nuclear waste in the short term, and replacing the uranium fuel cycle in nuclear systems with the thorium fuel cycle in the long term. The latter would provide abundant, reliable and safe energy with no CO2 production, no air pollution, and minimal waste production. The participants, representatives of 30 countries, included Carlo Rubbia, Nobel Prize Laureate in physics and inventor of the Energy Amplifier; Jack Steinberger, Nobel Prize Laureate in physics; Hans Blix, former Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA); Rolf Heuer, Director General of CERN; Pascal Couchepin, former President of the Swiss Confederation; and Claude Haegi, President of the FEDRE, to name just a few. The ThEC13 proceedings are a source of reference on the use of thorium for energy generation. They offer detailed technical reviews of the status of thorium energy technologies, from basic R&D to industrial developments. They also describe how thorium can be used in critical reactors and in subcritical accelerator-driven systems (ADS), answering the important questions: – Why is thorium so attractive and what is the role of innovation, in particular in the nuclear energy domain? – What are the national and international R&D programs on thorium technologies and how are they progressing? ThEC13 was organized jointly by the international Thorium Energy Committee (iThEC), an association based in Geneva, and the International Thorium Energy Organisation (IThEO). It was held in the Globe of Science and Innovation at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Geneva, Switzerland, in October 2013.
