Abstract: Accelerator driven subcritical system (ADS) has exhibited great superiority in the safe treatment and disposal of spent fuel which is generated during irradiation in reactors, and the search for transmutation fuels with excellent comprehensive properties is one of the important tasks in ADS development. However, due to the inherent special properties of the minor actinides, the incomplete understanding of the mechanism related to transmutation fuels, the difficulty of the fabrication technology, and the lack of experimental data and operational experience, the development of transmutation fuel for ADS is very complicated and challenging. In this paper, the fabrication processes, irradiation experiments and post-irra-diation examination results, physical properties, main advantages and disadvantages of the leading candidate transmutation fuels for ADS such as oxide dispersion fuel CERCER/CERMET, nitride fuel and metal fuel are summarized to provide important ideas and references for investigating and exploring the transmutation fuels for ADS in China.
