In MOX scenarios, the Rokkasho reprocessing plant (RRP) will be operated with annual capacity of 800 t and a MOX fabrication plant also (Fig. 19.6). The total amount of UO2-SF reprocessed is 34,500 tHM, slightly larger than the planned amount of 32,000 tHM. Thus, the present analysis assumes an extension of the RRP by several years. The MOX loading to a usual LWR is limited to 30 %, although the

Ohma full-MOX reactor starting in 2014 in this analysis can be operated only by MOX fuel. Because the RRP is operated after all LWRs are closed, part of the separated Pu cannot be burned. The total amount of Pu is reduced to 250 t, but that of MA is increased to 100 t.
