To assess the feasibility of transmutation of long-lived radiowastes using fusion-fission hybrid reactors, a fusion core design is presented and several possible conceptual blankets are studied, for, respectively, actinides transmutation and fission product transmutation. The results show that actinides and fission products may be effectively transmuted using the presented hybrid reactors.展开更多

It consists of a DT neutron source and a spherical shell of depleted uranium and hydrogen lithium. The tritium production rate (TPR) distribution in the conceptual reactor was measured by DT neutrons using two sets of lithium glass detectors with different thicknesses in the hole in the vertical direction with respect to the D+ beam of the Cockcroft-Walton neutron generator in direct current mode. The measured TPR distribution is compared with the calculated results obtained by the three- dimensional Monte Carlo code MCNP5 and the ENDF/B-VI data file. The discrepancy between the measured and calculated values can be attributed to the neutron data library of the hydrogen lithium lack S(α, β) thermal scattering model, so we show that a special database of low-energy and thermal neutrons should be established in the physics design of fusion-fission hybrid reactors.展开更多
