加速器驱动系统有可能安全地裂变次要锕系元素，并在工业规模上将选定的长寿命裂变产物转化为较少关注的同位素。欧洲领先的核工业公司和研究中心在EURATOM第五框架计划内研究了三种实验加速器驱动系统（XADS）的解决方案，不同的是功率（80和50 MW）或主冷却剂（铅铋铕和气体）。靶单元的两个主要概念是设想：窗口靶单元，其特征在于薄金属片作为LBE靶和质子束管之间的屏障，以及无窗口靶单元，其中质子束直接撞击液体LBE靶的自由表面。这些设计正在研究中，以便在共同的基础上评估和比较它们，并概述主要的研发需求。
The Accelerator-Driven System has the potential to safely fission Minor Actinides and transmute, on industrial scale, selected long-lived fission products into isotopes of lesser concern. European leading nuclear Industrial Companies and Research Centers,within the EURATOM 5th Framework Programme, have studied three solutions of eXperimental Accelerator Driven Systems (XADS), different for the power (80 and 50 MW) or the primary coolant (Lead Bismuth Eutectic and Gas). Two main concepts of Target Unit are envisaged: the Window Target Unit which features a thin metallic sheet as a barrier between the LBE target and the Proton Beam Pipe and the Windowless Target Unit in which the proton beam impinges directly on the free surface of the liquid LBE target. These designs are under study in order to assess and compare them on a common basis, and to outline the main R&D needs.
