Working Party on Scientific Issues of Advanced Fuel Cycles (WPFC) meeting, 8 June 2021.

The NEA is organising the 16^th Information Exchange Meeting on Actinide and Fission Product Partitioning and Transmutation (16IEMPT) on 26-30 June 2022. The meeting will be held in Saint Petersburg, ...

New NEA task force on partitioning and transmutation kicks off

The expert group conducts joint and comparative studies to identify technical issues and support the development of innovative fuels that can be implemented in advanced nuclear fuel cycles.

WPFC deals with scientific issues in various existing and advanced nuclear fuel cycles, including fuel cycle scenarios, physics, separation chemistry and flowsheets, waste forms, fuels and materials,...

The expert group monitored the feedback from version 0 of the Lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) handbook, collected, analysed and checked the consistency of expected new results from ongoing heavy liquid m...

The expert group conducts joint and comparative studies to support the development, selection and characterisation of innovative structural materials that can be implemented in advanced nuclear fuel ...

The former Expert Group on Heavy Liquid Metal (HLM) Technology was active for several years and its main objective was to issue a handbook with a collection of theoretical approaches and experimental...

The task force developed best practice guidelines by performing a benchmark study on thermo-hydraulic modelling of heavy liquid metal coolant, e.g. lead and lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) alloy.

The expert group focuses on the separations processes relevant to recycling technologies for spent nuclear fuel including waste treatment.
