Abstract
A method of incineration of minor actinides in nuclear reactors is presented. The minor actinides to be incinerated are embedded in at least one finite region of a core of a thermal nuclear reactor. This finite region is isolated from the rest of the core by means of a thin layer of material that absorbs thermal neutrons but is transparent to fast neutrons. This isolating material is preferably fissile, so that the neutron flux in the core is not simply filtered of its thermal neutrons, but also amplified in its fast neutrons.
