Zirconium(Zr) alloys are commonly used in the nuclear industry for applications such as fuel cladding and pressure tubes. To minimize the levels and volumes of radioactive waste, molten salts have been employed for decontaminating Zr alloys. Recently, a two-step Zr metal recovery process, combining electrolysis and thermal decomposition, has been proposed. In the electrolysis process, potentiostatic electrorefining is utilized to control the chemical form of electrodeposits(ZrCl). Although Zr metals are expected to dissolve into molten salts, reductive alloy elements can also be co-dissolved and deposited on the cathode. Therefore, a better understanding of the anodic side’s response during potentiostatic electrorefining is necessary to ensure the purity of recovered Zr and long-term process operation. As the first step, potentiodynamic polarization curves were obtained using Zr, Nb, and Zr-Nb alloy to investigate the anodic dissolution behavior in the molten salts. Nb, which has a redox potential close to Zr, and Zr exhibit active or passivation dissolution mechanisms depending on the potential range. It was confirmed that Zr-Nb alloy also has a passivation region between -0.223 to -0.092 V influenced by the major elements Zr and Nb. Secondly, active dissolution of Zr-Nb was performed in the range of -0.9 to -0.6 V. The dissolution mechanism can be explained by percolation theory, which is consistent with the observed microstructure of the alloy. Thirdly, passivation dissolution of Zr, Nb, and Zr-Nb alloy was investigated to identify the pure passivation products and additional products in the Zr-Nb alloy case. K2ZrCl6 and K3NbCl6 were identified as the pure passivation products of the major elements. In the Zr-Nb alloy case, additional products, such as Nb and NbZr, produced by the redox reaction of nanoparticles in the high viscous salt layer near the anode, were also confirmed. The anodic dissolution mechanism of Zr-Nb alloy can be summarized as follows. During active dissolution, only Zr metal dissolves into molten salts by percolation. Above the solubility near the anode, passivation products begin to form. The anode potential increases due to the disturbance of passivation products on ion flow, leading to co-dissolution of Nb. When the concentration of Nb ion exceeds the solubility, a passivation product of Nb also forms. In this scenario, a high viscous salt layer is formed, which traps nanoparticles of Zr metal, resulting in redox behavior between Zr metal and Nb ion. Some nanoparticles of Zr and Nb metal are also present in the form of NbZr.

Nuclear power generation is expected to be enlarged for domestic electricity supply based on the 10th Basic Plan of Long-Term Electricity Supply and Demand. However, the issues on the disposal of spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive waste has not been solved. KBS-3 concept of the deep geological disposal and pyroprocessing has been investigated as options for disposal and treatment way of spent nuclear fuel. In other way, the radionuclide management process with 6 scenarios are devised combining chlorination treatment and alternative disposal methods for the efficient disposal of spent nuclear fuel. Various scenarios will be considered and comprehensively optimized by evaluation on many aspects, such as waste quantity, radiotoxicity, economy and so on. Level 0 to 4 were identified with the specialized nuclide groups: Level 0 (NFBC, Hull), Level 1 (Long-lived, volatile nuclides), Level 2 (High heat emitting nuclides), Level 3 (TRU/RE), Level 4 (U). The 6 options (Op.1 to 6) were proposed with the differences between scenarios, for examples, phase types of wastes, the isolated nuclide groups, chlorination process sequences. Op.1 adopts Level 0 and 1 to separate I, Tc, Se, C, Cs nuclides which are major concerns for long-term disposal through heat treatment. The rest of spent nuclear fuel will be disposed as oxide form itself. Op.2 contains Sr separation process using chlorination by MgCl2 and precipitation by K2CO3to alleviate the burden of heat after heat treatment process. U/TRU/RE will be remained and disposed in oxide form. Op.3 is set to pyroprocessing as reference method, but residual TRU/RE chlroides after electrorefining will be recovered as precipitates by K3PO4. Op.4 introduces NH4Cl to chlorinate TRU/RE from oxides after Op.2 applied and precipitates them. TRU/RE/Sr will be simultaneously chlorinated by NH4Cl without MgCl2 in Op.5. Then, chlorinated Sr and TRU/RE groups will be separated by post-chlorination process for disposal. But, chlorinated Sr and TRU/RE are designed not to be divided in disposal steps in Op.6. In this study, the mass flow analysis of radionuclide management process scenarios with updated process variables are performed. The amount and composition of wastes by types will be addressed in detail.

Attempts to use the molten salt system in various aspects such as MSR or energy storage systems are increasing. However, there are limitations in the molten salt-assisted technique due to the harsh corrosiveness of the molten salt, and a more detailed study on salt-induced corrosion is needed to solve this problem. In this study, corrosion behaviors of 80Ni-20Cr alloy in various salt environments such as eutectic NaCl-MgCl2 with NiCl2, CrCl2, and EuCl3 additives were investigated. Meanwhile, the corrosion acceleration effects of 80Ni-20Cr specimens were analyzed for various ceramic materials such as SiC, Al2O3, SiO2, graphite, and BN, and metallic materials such as Ni-based alloy, Fe-based alloy, and pure metals in a molten salt environment. The experiments were conducted at 973 K for up to 28 days, and after the experiment, the microstructural change of the specimen was analyzed through SEM-EDS, and salt condition was analyzed by ICP-OES.

The radionuclide management process is a conditioning technology to reduce the burden of spent fuel management, and refers to a process that can separate and recover radionuclides having similar properties from spent fuels. In particular, through the radionuclide management process, high heat- emitting, high mobility, and high toxicity radionuclides, which have a significant impact on the performance of disposal system, are separated and managed. The performance of disposal system is closely related to properties (decay heat and radioactivity) of radioactive wastes from the radionuclide management process, and the properties are directly linked to the radionuclide separation ratio that determines the composition of radionuclides in waste flow. The Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute have derived process flow diagrams for six candidates for the radionuclide management process, weighing on feasibility among various process options that can be considered. In addition, the GoldSim model has been established to calculate the mass and properties of waste from each unit process of the radionuclides management process and to observe their time variations. In this study, the candidates for the radionuclide management process are evaluated based on the waste mass and properties by using the GoldSim model, and sensitivity analysis changing the separation ratio are performed. And the effect of changes in the separation ratio for highly sensitive radionuclides on waste management strategy is analyzed. In particular, the separation ratio for high heat-emitting radionuclides determines the period of long-term decay storage.

Electroanalytical study for the rotating cylinder electrode in molten LiCl-KCl eutectic salt (58– 42mol%) containing MgCl2 (0.1wt%) at 600°C is conducted. The researches of rotating cylinder electrode have been widely conducted for the century. The advantage of the electrode is that it can mitigate the unintended natural convection by providing a controlled diffusion boundary layer thickness. However, the experimental data for the high temperature molten salts is barely existed. The study adopts the electrochemical techniques such as cyclic voltammetry for the static cell and linear sweep voltammetry for the dynamic cell to calculate the diffusion coefficient. The peak current density and limiting current density are measured according to the scan rate. In order to evaluate the mass transfer under hydrodynamic flow condition, the revolution speeds of cylindrical electrode are varied from 10 rpm to 500 rpm which are corresponded to the Reynolds number of 4 and 185 respectively. The flow regime covers from the laminar to semi-turbulent regime (transient) as the critical Reynolds number Recrit is 200. The limiting current density shows a linear trend with the revolution speed and agrees well with the existing mass transfer correlations. For the extended flow regime, a new mass transfer correlation is suggested as the relation of non-dimensional numbers (Sh = aRebScc) based on the dimensionless analysis.
