CHOICE 3

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