摘要
Japan has a policy to reuse Pu as MOX fuel so as not to have surplus Pu. Because of this policy, Japan has extensive experience using Pu as MOX fuel not only in FBRs and ATRs but also in LWRs. While the private sector performed studies on LWRs MOX fuel, NUPEC has been implementing a programme which intends to confirm MOX fuel integrity and reliability. Individual fuel suppliers have developed their own calculation codes for using MOX fuel in LWRs. NSC examined the validity and accuracy of the codes during the first stage of the licensing. The second stage of licensing has been started in this year and the commercial use of MOX fuel in LWRs is planed in 1999.
