Abstract
The RT-2 plant under construction near Krasnoyarsk is intended to reprocess the spent fuel of thermal reactors (WWER-1OOO) and to produce new fuel assemblies for the same reactors using all plutonium separated during reprocessing. It is also presumed that all wastes formed. when reprocessing old fuel end. manufacturing new one should be obtained in forms suitable for a long-term storage or disposal with the observance of ecologists’ requirements, and the plutonium content in them should be minimised.
