The NEA is organising the Sixteenth Information Exchange Meeting on Actinide and Fission Product Partitioning and Transmutation (IEMPT 16), from 27 June-1 July 2021. The meeting will be held in Russia, Saint Petersburg and hosted by Rosatom in co‑operation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
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 P&T and advanced nuclear fuel cycles, the NEA has been organising biennial information exchange meetings on actinide and fission product partitioning and transmutation since 1990.
The meeting will cover scientific, as well as strategic/policy developments in the field of P&T and advanced nuclear fuel cycles. The meeting will be divided in different sessions including the following topics:
The meeting will consist of a plenary session, followed by technical sessions and a poster session covering the technical subjects abovementioned.
The poster session will be held on Wednesday, 30 June 2021.
The conference dinner will be held on Tuesday, 29 June 2021.
More details will be given in due course.
All participants willing to give a presentation should submit an extended abstract (2-5 pages) by dates to be announced shortly by completing the registration form (NB: you will need to log into your NEA account or pre-register if you do not already have an NEA account). A template with instructions can be found on the page under the files download section.
Accepted extended abstracts will be part of the proceedings, which will be distributed during the meeting.
All participants (presenters and non-presenters) planning to attend the meeting are invited to complete the registration form before 15 May 2021 (NB: you will need to log into your NEA account or pre-register if you do not already have an NEA account).
