Abstract
Both minor actinide loading patterns are technically feasible; most importantly do not need to modify the configuration of the PWR core and composition of nuclear fuel. Furthermore, the two minor actinide loading patterns completely isolate minor actinide transmutation materials from nuclear fuel, so it also facilitates fuel reprocessing after discharged from PWR core. We believe that loading minor actinide to PWR burnable poison rods for transmutation is an optimal minor actinide loading pattern.
