TEV-3776 Hybrid – ZIRCEX Process Demonstration Siting Study

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1575376· OSTI ID:1575376

The purpose of this technical evaluation (TEV) is to detail the siting considerations for supporting pre-conceptual design of the engineering-scale Hybrid – ZIRCEX Process (formerly known as Hybrid Uranium Recovery Demonstration [HURD]) demonstration. This process represents the first-of a kind integration of a select group of technologies meant to recover high enriched uranium (HEU) from zirconium and aluminum clad used nuclear fuel (UNF) for down-blending to produce high assay low enriched uranium (HALEU).
