Fuel Cycle

In the field of research, development and training of the fuel cycle, we focus on:

• Methods for computing the active zone characteristics ;
• Development of new methods for neutron-physical calculations of the active zone;
• Development of new methods to optimize fuel charges;
• Multiphysical calculations of the active zone;
• Advanced analysis of calculation uncertainties;
• Support of the back of the fuel cycle of nuclear power plants and research reactors;
• Elaboration of conceptual and expert studies to optimize spent fuel management in the European context of fissile materials management;
• Preparation of the fuel cycle of the reactors;
• Development of computational methods for GenIV reactors and their analysis;
• Analysis of advanced fuel cycles.
