This teaching unit covers the various aspects of the current fuel cycle and future nuclear cycles. It will cover concepts relating to the front end of the cycle (mineral resources, uranium extraction and purification, isotopic enrichment), the passage of fuels through nuclear reactors, and the back end of the cycle (reprocessing of spent fuel, recycling of recoverable materials and fuel remanufacturing, management of final nuclear waste). This will be followed by several aspects relating to future nuclear fuel cycles, in particular the use of unconventional resources, advanced separation concepts, and the development of fourth-generation reactors.

Faculty of Science
This EU will address the main conventional membrane technologies in liquid and gas environments. With regard to liquid environments, the focus will be on baromembrane technologies such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis, as well as technologies based on electrochemical potential gradients (electrodeionization) or temperature gradients (membrane distillation). In addition, gas permeation and pervaporation for the separation of gases and/or vapors will also be presented. For all technologies, the question of choosing suitable membrane materials will be addressed and representative examples of appropriate areas of use (related to current environmental and energy issues) will be given.
