欧洲共同体和日本电力工业公司的中心研究所将联合进行研究,以探索处理快速增殖反应堆核废料的可能性。废物中所含高浓度日衰变期长的锕系元素可以回收用作快速增殖反应堆的燃料。从理论上说,快速增殖反应堆是可以将锕系元素衰变成裂变产物,这些产物的半衰期比半衰期为二百万年的镎要短得多。目前研究人员认为,20座常规反应堆所产生的锕类 The European Community and NEPC’s Center Institute will conduct a joint study to explore the possibility of dealing with BPS nuclear waste. The high concentrations of actinides contained in the waste that contain high concentrations of decay can be recovered for use as fuel in breeder reactors. In theory, fast-breeder reactors are capable of decaying actinides to fission products whose half-lives are much shorter than those with a half-life of two million years. At present, researchers believe that actinides produced by 20 conventional reactors
