Abstract

An advanced PUREX process, the PARC process, has been developed which aims to reduce the radioactive waste volume containing TRU elements (neptunium, plutonium, americium and curium) and the environmental hazard risk due to long-lived nuclides such as technetium-99, carbon-14 and iodine-129. This paper describes the concept of the PARC process and major results of chemical flow sheet experiments using spent fuels.
