The purpose of the NBSR is to provide high intensity neutron beams for the pursuit of scientific research. The NBSR is fueled by 30 highly enriched fuel elements. During a year, NBSR produces approximately 28 spent fuel elements.The fuel elements are made up of Uranium Oxide Materials Testing Reactor (MTR) type dispersion fuel plates. There are two 13-inch-tall stacks of fuel plates lodged in every fuel element with a gap of 6 inches between them. The fueled regions can be separated from the rest of the fuel element using an underwater saw, which allows the parts of the fuel assembly that contain no uranium to be treated as radioactive waste of a much lower classification than the parts containing highly radioactive uranium. The fueled pieces measurements are 13.5" x 3.5" x 3".To be in accordance with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), NIST must transfer its spent fuel to the Department of Energy (DOE) Savannah River Site (SRS) near Aiken, South Carolina. NCNR requires the shipment of its spent fuel cells to the DOE SRS.
