Fuel design and manufacturing for open and closed fuel cycles - Advanced reactors

Main description

Advanced reactor developers will face constraints on uranium supply chain, fuel cycle and waste, long-term fuel procurement and spent-fuel management. Framatome has been working for decades in fuel design, qualification and manufacturing and understands issues related to the uranium supply chain, the closed cycle for spent-fuel management, recycling of fissionable materials, and optimized solutions for final disposition. Framatome has solutions for both open and closed fuel cycles in advanced reactors.
