What is The Feasibility Study on Perfect Burning Reactor System about?
The system of 100% natural uranium burning with once-through fuel cycle is defined as the Perfect Burning Reactor System (PBRS). This kind of nuclear system can be expected to have some good characteristic such as resource efficiency, radiotoxicity reduction, proliferation and nuclear safety. Therefore, the feasibility of the concept is studied in this paper. The preliminary results show that the system of 100% natural uranium burning with once-through fuel cycle is physically possible with a plenty supply of external neutron, and that the system demands no activities concerning with fuel cycle such as uranium enrichment, fuel fabrication, spent fuel reprocessing and radioactive waste treatment. The study also quantitatively clarifies the external neutron source strength, the nuclear criticality safety, the demanded accelerator performance and the energy balance. In addition, the more precise analysis is requested for well understanding and improving the characteristic and economical rationality of the system.
