CHOICE 3

This teaching unit covers the different aspects of the current and future nuclear fuel cycle. It will successively cover the notions of the upstream part of the cycle (mineral resources, extraction and purification of uranium, isotopic enrichment), the passage of fuels through nuclear reactors and then the downstream part of the cycle (reprocessing of spent fuels, recycling of recoverable materials and remanufacturing of fuels, management of ultimate nuclear waste). This will be followed by several aspects of future nuclear fuel cycles, in particular the use of non-conventional resources, advanced separation concepts and the development of fourth generation reactors.
