Abstract: Radioactive waste minimization is one of the basic principles of radioactive waste management. Study on radioactive waste minimization strategy of high temperature gas-cooled reactor of pebble-bed (HTR-PM) nuclear power plants has great significance for design optimization, operation activities, radioactive waste management, and development of high temperature gas-cooled reactor industry. The HTR-PM techniques and radioactive waste characteristics were analyzed on the basis of the data of operation history and radioactive wastes of HTR-PM in the world, radioactive waste management experiences and related research progresses were summarized, and finally some suggestions on radioactive waste minimization strategies of HTR-PM were proposed.

Key words: high temperature gas-cooled reactors, HTR-PM, radioactive waste minimization, waste management, strategy
