All the stages involving the fuel - from uranium mining and making yellowcake, to the fuelling of a reactor, recycling of unused fuel, and radioactive waste management.
All the steps involved in using nuclear fuel in reactors: supply, use, processing and disposal of waste.
The processes involved in extracting a fuel in its native form, converting it to a useful product, transporting it to market, and consuming it at its final destination.
The linked sequential stages through which a fuel passes from primary energy extraction through final conversion into a useful energy service (work).
The process of mining and refining uranium for use as reactor fuel. The process usually involves uranium enrichment and/or reprocessing.
the series of steps involved in supplying fuel for nuclear power reactors. The fuel cycle can include mining, milling, isotopic enrichment, fabrication of fuel elements, use in a reactor, re-enrichment of the fuel material, re-fabrication into new fuel elements, and waste disposal. return to: [] [ Click "BackButton" for previous location
The sequence of operations involved in supplying fuel for nuclear power generation, irradiating the fuel in a nuclear reactor, and handling and treating the fuel elements following discharge from the reactor.
The series of steps required to produce electricity. The fuel cycle includes mining or otherwise acquiring the raw fuel source, processing and cleaning the fuel, transport, electricity generation, waste management and plant decommissioning.
The entire set of sequential processes or stages involved in the utilization of fuel, including extraction, transformation, transportation, and combustion. Emissions generally occur at each stage of the fuel cycle.
The sequence of steps needed for the production and combustion of fuel to produce nuclear energy including mining, milling, conversion, enrichment, transportation, and waste storage.
