The NEA is organising the 16th Information Exchange Meeting on Actinide and Fission Product Partitioning and Transmutation (16IEMPT).
Advanced nuclear fuel cycles to improve the safety, sustainability and economics of nuclear energy are under development internationally. Partitioning and Transmutation (P&T) is one of the candidate technologies to help reduce the heat, radiotoxicity and volume of radioactive waste. Recent developments indicate the need for embedding P&T strategies into advanced fuel cycles considering both waste management and economic issues.
In order to give experts a forum to present and discuss state-of-the-art developments in the field of advanced nuclear fuel cycles and P&T, the NEA has been organising biennial information exchange meetings on actinide and fission product partitioning and transmutation since 1990.

All accepted extended abstracts will be made available to the participants at the meeting. The official proceedings will be published afterwards.
To ease and harmonise the submission and review process, all authors who submitted extended abstracts in 2020 or early 2021 need to resubmit them (after update, if needed) by completing the submission form.
All authors are invited to fill in, sign and submit the copyright form when submitting their extended abstract.The form can be found in the download section.
Contributions from early-career scientists (under 35 years of age) are highly encouraged.The best extended abstracts will be chosen for oral presentations and the authors will be invited to co-chair some sessions.
All participants (presenters and non-presenters) planning to attend the meeting will be invited to complete the registration form. Registration will be opened later on.
No registration fees will be charged.
More information will be given in due course.
