Abstract

Alternative dissolution processes for spent nuclear fuel lead to highly active waste streams rich in zirconium, iron, chromium, and nickel at levels that vary with fuel assembly design. A titanate ceramic phase assemblage has been developed with the flexibility to accommodate these variations in waste stream composition. Waste loadings range from 42 to 50 wt%. Leach rates are comparable to those from Synroc C.
