OSTI ID:6375134
Development of refabrication processes for proliferation-resistant fuels for thermal reactors was initiated in fiscal year 1978 under the Fuel Refabrication and Development (FRAD) Program. Within the overall program scope, development of gel-sphere-pac processes for remote refabrication of highly gamma-active fuels was assigned to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Activities at ORNL under the Task 500 category have been divided into seven subtasks: Gel-Sphere-Pac Fuel--Technology Status and Performance; Feed Preparation; Sphere Forming; Washing and Drying; Sintering and Characterization; Fuel Rod Loading; and Fuel Rod Inspection.
