RECYCLING JAPANESE SPENT FUEL CASKS AT ENERGYSOLUTIONS

抄録

EnergySolutions (ES), founded in 2005, was established by acquiring companies both from the United States (US) and from the international market with good capability or technology to enable providing a full value chain of nuclear backend service mainly in the areas of radioactive waste management and nuclear facility D&D. With over 50 years of combined experience, the company offers a full suite of integrated, often unique solutions to customers worldwide.

In the US, ES has been involved in the majority of D&D projects, including La Crosse, SEFOR, and Zion sites, which were fully managed and completed by the company as commercial D&D projects. One of the next major challenges is to complete D&D work at TMI-2 which still has fuel debris remaining in the plant.
