TRANSMUTATION of LONG-LIVED FISSION PRODUCTS 1. MOTIVATION for TRANSMUTATION of LONG-LIVED FISSION PRODUCTS l.A. ARGUMENTS for and against TRANSMUTATION of NUCLEAR WASTE Actinides In literature one finds several arguments in favour of transmutation of nuclear waste [1-4]. Most of these arguments relate to possibilities to reach a more acceptable waste storage strategy, in which the life time of long-lived radioactive components is shortened. One argument in favour of recycling actinides, expresses the wish to utilize the energy content of spent fuel. Thereby one reduces the amount of long lived actinides in the waste stream as well as the risk and cost of mining new uranium per unit of electrical energy generated. Predictions regarding the integrity any disposal site might be falsified by human intrusion, which could become attractive especially after the short-lived fission products have decayed and the waste in the site becomes a more manageable form of partly fissile matter (without recycling up to hundreds of tons of Pu, mixed with long-lived fission product waste).
