The paper addresses the dynamic modelling of the UNH crystal growth by means of cellular automata(CA) method for nuclear fuel reprocessing as the alternative to traditionally used extraction method. Model-based CA approach is considered to predict dependence of product's properties on input changes: uranium and nitric acid concentration, solution temperature. CA approach is preferable for crystallization process to get a high purity of reprocessed materials. C++ application is developed as a result of the research. The application allows monitoring of dynamics changes of solution temperature, uranium concentration and shape of crystals.
