摘      要：Nuclear fuel cycle chemistry is a growing interdisciplinary field that includes radiochemistry, nuclear chemistry, and radiation chemistry. It covers a diverse range of topics in- cluding the basic chemistry of actinides and fission products, nuclear chemistry and radiochemistry related to the nuclear fuel cycle, separation science, and isotope production. As a high-density form of energy that has almost no as- sociated discharge of greenhouse gases, nuclear energy plays a pivotal role in long-term energy security and the prevention of global warming. Although the accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant has raised intense public concern about the safety of nuclear energy around the world, we believe that nuclear energy is still an inevitable option to ensure energy supply and to reduce carbon emissions in many countries. However, to realize the sustainable devel- opment of nuclear energy in the future it is necessary to maximize uranium resources and minimize radioactive waste. An advanced nuclear fuel cycle can efficiently use uranium resources and reduce the volume and radiotoxicity of nuclear waste, thus greatly contributing to the peaceful use of nuclear power by mankind.
