    Summary: The outstanding performance of CANDU fuel is attributed to a well-rounded development program that combined sound science with excellent engineering. Economic analysis and technology transfer were integrated into the program to ensure successful commercialization. The CANDU fuel program provides useful lessons that are being Ignored by policymakers in their desire to exploit our world-elass resources in science and technology to benefit the Canadian economy.

  15. CANDU Advanced Plutonium Burner - The Canadian Response to the ALWR, by A.R. Dastur and A.C. Mao , AECL, 1989-05-01. Doc type: Paper.
    Summary: As published in the Canadian Nuclear Society Bulletin Vol. 10, No. 3, 1989 with the kind permission of the CNS: It is demonstrated that the prescnt CANDU design concept has potential for increased conversion and resource utilization compared with other reactor concepts. Discussed here is a CANDU based concept thau utilizes energy produced by subcritical multiplication in a fertile region designed for accelerated plutonium production is presented. Its feasibility is based on incorporating the channels with fertile material into the primary heal transport circuit. Calculations with multigroup transport codes predict very high fuel utilization due to the production and burnup of fissile plutonium in the fertile region.

  25. The Essential CANDU, by Wm. J. Garland, Editor-in-Chief, UNENE, 2015-01-01. Doc type: Book.
    Summary: The Essential CANDU is a textbook about nuclear science and engineering pertaining to CANDU reactors using CANDU as the reference design. This distinguishes it from comparable textbooks based on PWR reactors. This is not a product description of CANDU per se. The book emphasizes theory over other aspects of nuclear science. This is a textbook about CANDU nuclear reactor and power plant engineering, not just the reactor physics of the core.
