This technology consists of treating the spent fuel to a first step consisting of oxidation, dehalogenation, and oxide dissolution. The next step is lead oxide reduction, followed by silicate glass formulation to convert the melt to a borosilicate glass as the waste form for disposal.

The process entails chlorination and volatilization of all fuel components at about 1800 K This is followed by separation of the fission product from the gas stream by condensation and dissolution in a zinc chloride molten salt scrubber at 673 K
