Stage: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a processing apparatus and a processing method that can improve the workability of the processing work while ensuring criticality safety.SOLUTION: A processing apparatus 100 for processing radioactive materials including nuclear materials comprises: a neutron detector 101 which sequentially observes neutrons in the smallest control unit of a processing tool 102; a neutron measuring device 104 which calculates a neutron count value from the detection signal of the neutron detector 101; and a reactivity estimation device 106 which estimates the input reactivity from each processing operation timing from the past processing operation timing to the latest processing operation timing, the corresponding neutron count value, and neutron response function. The reactivity estimation device 106 estimates the input reactivity by superimposing the neutron response function with the neutron count value measured after the processing operation timing as an input value and the processing operation timing function.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 (Grant)
