TE 9258 NUCLEAR ENGINEERING L T P C 3 0 0 3
AIM:
To provide in-depth knowledge on Nuclear reaction materials reprocessing techniques and also to understand nuclear waste disposal techniques and radiation protection aspects.
OBJECTIVES:
 To describe fundamental study of nuclear reactions
 To learn nuclear fuels cycles, characteristics. Fundamental principles governing nuclear fission chain reaction and fusion
 To discuss future nuclear reactor systems with respect to generation of energy, fuel breeding, incineration of nuclear material and safety.
UNIT I NUCLEAR REACTIONS 9
Mechanism of nuclear fission - nuclides - radioactivity – decay chains - neutron reactions - the fission process - reactors - types of fast breeding reactor - design and construction of nuclear reactors - heat transfer techniques in nuclear reactors - reactor shielding. 
UNIT II REACTOR MATERIALS 9
Nuclear Fuel Cycles - characteristics of nuclear fuels - Uranium - production and purification of Uranium - conversion to UF4 and UF6 - other fuels like Zirconium, Thorium - Berylium.
UNIT III REPROCESSING 9
Nuclear fuel cycles - spent fuel characteristics - role of solvent extraction in reprocessing - solvent extraction equipment.
UNIT IV SEPARATION OF REACTOR PRODUCTS 9
Processes to be considered - 'Fuel Element' dissolution - precipitation process – ion exchange - redox - purex - TTA - chelation -U235 - Hexone - TBP and thorax Processes - oxidative slaging and electro - refinng - Isotopes - principles of Isotope separation.
UNIT V WASTE DISPOSAL AND RADIATION PROTECTION 9
Types of nuclear wastes - safety control and pollution control and abatement - international convention on safety aspects - radiation hazards prevention.
