OECD NEA meeting focuses on irradiation experiments
Members of the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency’s Second Framework for Irradiation Experiments (FIDES-II) joint undertaking gathered from September 29 to October 3 in Ketchum, Idaho, for the technical advisory group and governing board meetings hosted by Idaho National Laboratory. The FIDES-II Framework aims to ensure and foster competences in experimental nuclear fuel and structural materials in-reactor experiments through a diverse set of Joint Experimental Programs (JEEPs).

Modeling was carried out on vapor-liquid equilibria of nitric acid containing highly concentrated fission product nitrates to simulate the evaporation characteristics of a reprocessing plant high-level liquid waste (HLLW) concentrator. Results obtained with the model verified its reliability for prediction of vaporliquid equilibria of nitric acid containing highly concentrated nitrates. The results compared well with experimental data obtained with a pilot plant for HLLW concentration (capacity of 40 dm3).
