Accident Tolerant Materials for Light Water Reactor Fuels provides a description of what an accident tolerant fuel is and the benefits and detriments of each concept. The book begins with an introduction to nuclear power as a renewable energy source and the current materials bei…
A comprehensive and timely reference on nuclear fuel reprocessing and radioactive waste treatment, this book details emerging and innovative treatment techniques, reviewing pyrochemical processes and engineering, as well as highly selective compounds for solvent extraction. It a…
Advanced separations technology is key to closing the nuclear fuel cycle and relieving future generations from the burden of radioactive waste produced by the nuclear power industry. Nuclear fuel reprocessing techniques not only allow for recycling of useful fuel components for …

Le Nucléaire expliqué par des physiciens
by Klein, Etienne, Bonche, Paul, Cavedon, Jean-Marc
Le nucléaire inquiète. Pour alimenter sainement le débat, des physiciens non spécialistes de l'électronucléaire clarifient les fondements physiques et les enjeux techniques de ce domaine. Ils détaillent toutes les étapes depuis l'amont jusqu'à l'aval du cycle du combustible nucl…
Improving the assessment of the proliferation risk of nuclear fuel cycles
by National Research Council (U.S.)., Division on Earth and Life Studies, National Research Council (U.S.)., Nuclear and Radiation Studies Board, National Research Council (U.S.)., Committee on Improving the Assessment of the Proliferation Risk of Nuclear Fuel Cycles, National Research Council (U.S.)
"The material that sustains the nuclear reactions that produce energy can also be used to make nuclear weapons--and therefore, the development of nuclear energy is one of multiple pathways to proliferation for a non-nuclear weapon state. There is a tension between the developmen…
