This plenary session will explore the relationship between planned advanced reactors and their evolving strategies for managing used and spent nuclear fuel (UNF/SNF). The discussion will explore how innovative reactor designs can unlock new opportunities for reimagining the nuclear fuel cycle. By discussing emerging reactor concepts, the plenary will address how legacy waste challenges may be transformed into viable opportunities for fuel recycling and waste reduction, thereby paving the way for novel strategies in effective UNF/SNF management for future advanced reactors.
