This book presents the state of the art on thermophysical and
thermochemical properties, fabrication methodologies, irradiation
behaviours, fuel reprocessing procedures, and aspects of waste
management for oxide fuels in general and for thoria-based fuels in
particular.The book covers all the essential features involved in
the development of and working with nuclear technology. With the
help of key databases, many of which were created by the authors,
information is presented in the form of tables, figures, schematic
diagrams and flow sheets, and photographs. This information will be
useful for scientists and engineers working in the nuclear field,
particularly for design and simulation, and for establishing the
technology. One special feature is the inclusion of the latest
information on thoria-based fuels, especially on the use of thorium
in power generation, as it has less proliferation potential for
nuclear weapons. Given its natural abundance, thorium offers a
future alternative to uranium fuels in nuclear technology. In
closing, the latest information on conventional uranium and
plutonium fuels is also provided."
