Summary
This study investigates innovative methodologies aimed at enhancing the sustainability of advanced nuclear fuel recycling processes. Two representative case studies are examined. The first focuses on the implementation of a hydrophilic, CHON-compliant stripping agent within the i-SANEX extraction system for Minor Actinide recovery, allowing for the generation of incinerable stripping solutions that minimize the formation of secondary solid waste. The second explores the substitution of conventional organic solvents with environmentally benign Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES), offering a greener and potentially more cost-effective hydrophobic phase while addressing ligand solubility limitations. Collectively, these approaches demonstrate significant potential to reduce the environmental impact and improve the overall sustainability of future nuclear fuel reprocessing technologies.
