Abstract

PURPOSE:To execute the retreatment of used fuel with compact equipment and simplified process by forming a low melting plutomium and/or uranium alloy fuel phase, low melting salt phase and gas plenum successively from below to above in each fuel element. CONSTITUTION:The low melting plutonium and/or uranium alloy fuel phases 3 which melt at the operating temp. of a reactor furnace, the low melting salt phases 4 and the gas plenums 5 are formed in this order successively from lower to upper layers in the respective fuel elements 1a of the reactor vessel in which a liquid metal is used as a coolant and is disposed with the plural fuel elements in the cores. The alloy fuel phases 3 are thereby burned in the molten state during the reactor operation. The fission gases generated at this time are collected in the gas plenums 5 and the fission products are partly transferred to the salt phases 4 in the molten state, by which the self-refining function is provided to the alloy fuel phases 3 in the fuel elements 1a.
