Pilot Plant for Spent Fuel Reprocessing

Updated:2021-12-16 | By:The Academy of Contemporary China and World Studies

Pilot Plant for Spent Fuel Reprocessing 

In 1990, the State Council approved the construction of a pilot plant for reprocessing spent fuel at CNNC's 404 Company Limited. The plant was hot commissioned 20 years later in December 2010, signaling China's mastery of the technology for reprocessing spent fuel from power reactors in a closed nuclear fuel cycle. Since its hot commissioning, the plant has served as an important research platform for further development of advanced fuel reprocessing technology. In 2017, construction of China's self-designed spent fuel reprocessing demonstration project, based on a 60-ton pilot plant, began and is expected to be completed by 2023. 

乏燃料后处理中间试验厂 

1990年,国务院批准在中核四〇四有限公司建设动力堆乏燃料后处理中间试验工厂。经过20年的努力,2010年12月,中试厂热调试取得圆满成功,标志着中国掌握了动力堆乏燃料后处理的核心技术,实现了核燃料闭式循环的目标,为中国先进后处理工程技术的开发提供了重要的研究实验平台。2017年,以60吨生产规模的中试厂为基础,中国自主设计的乏燃料后处理示范工程开工建设,预计于2023年建成。
