Description

Product Description Advances in Nuclear Fuel Chemistry presents a high-level description of nuclear fuel chemistry based on the most recent research and advances. Dr. Markus H.A. Piro and his team of global, expert contributors cover all aspects of both the conventional uranium-based nuclear fuel cycle and non-conventional fuel cycles, including mining, refining, fabrication, and long-term storage, as well as emerging nuclear technologies, such as accident tolerant fuels and molten salt materials. Aimed at graduate students, researchers, academics and practicing engineers and regulators, this book will provide the reader with a single reference from which to learn the fundamentals of classical thermodynamics and radiochemistry. Review A consolidated reference covering all stages of nuclear fuel chemistry, with particular focus on traditional and nontraditional fuel cycles From the Back Cover Advances in Nuclear Fuel Chemistry presents a high-level description of nuclear fuel chemistry based on the most recent research and advances. Dr. Markus H.A. Piro and his team of expert contributors from around the world cover all aspects of both the conventional uranium-based nuclear fuel cycle and non-conventional fuel cycles, including mining, refining, fabrication, and long-term storage, as well as discussing emerging nuclear technologies, such as accident tolerant fuels and molten salt materials. Aimed at graduate students, researchers, and academics of Nuclear Energy and Engineering as well as practicing engineers and regulators, this book will provide the reader with one single reference to learn the fundamentals of classical thermodynamics and radiochemistry, before moving on to more advanced topics, such as fission product behaviour in irradiated fuel. About the Author Dr. Piro earned a PhD in Nuclear Engineering from the Royal Military College of Canada with Profs. W.T. Thompson and B.J. Lewis, and held a Post-Doctoral Fellowship (PDF) at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory under the supervision of Dr. T.M. Besmann. Both PhD and PDF projects focused on computational thermochemistry of irradiated nuclear fuel. After the PDF, Dr. Piro worked at the Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) as a research scientist and then Head of the Fuel Modelling and Fission Product Transport Section, where he led a multi-disciplinary group that supported both basic and applied research for government and industry. While his research at CNL broadly involved various aspects of fuel behaviour, the focus was on nuclear fuel chemistry of various fuel types, including conventional power reactor fuel, research reactor fuel, Generation IV concepts, and some exotic (proprietary) fuel designs for industry. In 2017, Dr. Piro was awarded a Canada Research Chair of Nuclear Fuels and Materials at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (now `Ontario Tech University’). His group contributes to a number of research projects in collaboration with partners in industry and government with the ultimate goal of enhancing performance, safety, and environmental stewardship of nuclear fuels and related materials.
