The Disposal Research & Development (Disposal R&D) Campaign of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy (NE), Office of Spent Fuel & High-Level Waste Disposition is conducting research and development (R&D) on geologic disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level nuclear waste (HLW). A high priority for Disposal R&D is disposal system modeling (Sassani et al. 2023). The Geologic Disposal Safety Assessment (GDSA) work package is charged with developing a disposal system modeling and analysis capability for evaluating generic disposal system performance for nuclear waste in geologic media.

The Spent Fuel & Waste Science and Technology (SFWST) Campaign of the Office of Spent Fuel & Waste Disposition of U.S. Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) is conducting research and development on geologic disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and high-level nuclear waste (HLW). This report describes fiscal year 2024 accomplishments in the Geologic Disposal Safety Assessment (GDSA) PFLOTRAN Development work package, which is charged with developing subsurface simulation software for postclosure performance assessment of deep geologic disposal of SNF and HLW.
