Fuel Cycle Research and Development
Fuel Cycle Research and Development (R&D) focuses on improving the processes involved in the nuclear fuel cycle, which includes mining, processing, using nuclear fuel in reactors, and managing waste. The goal is to enhance safety, efficiency, and sustainability while minimizing environmental impact. This area of research explores advanced technologies for fuel production, reactor efficiency, and better waste management strategies. By innovating within the fuel cycle, R&D aims to make nuclear energy more reliable and secure, contributing to energy needs while addressing concerns related to safety and environmental sustainability.
