Research and Discussion on Critical Accidents in Foreign Spent Fuel Reprocessing Plant
With the rapid development of spent fuel reprocessing technology at home and abroad,a solid foundation has been laid for the sustainable development of nuclear energy.At the same time,accidents may occur in various stages of spent fuel reprocessing plants,such as shearing,dissolving,extracting,evaporating and concentrating.Especially the critical safety problem can not be ignored due to its impor-tance.In recent years,critical accidents in some foreign spent fuel reprocessing plants have sounded the alarm for us.This paper summarizes and analyzes the accidents in foreign reprocessing facilities,conducts in-depth research and discussion on the causes of critical accidents,and provides relevant suggestions on the design and strict implementation of procedures for spent fuel reprocessing in our country.
