Orano has begun serial production of ten 30B-10 cylinders designed for the transport of LEU+ - uranium hexafluoride enriched ...

LIS Technologies (LIST), the US startup working on a novel laser-based approach to uranium enrichment, says it has raised another $12 million in funding - said to be its third consecutive ...

Oklo's Small Modular Reactors are offering potential solutions to AI's growing energy demands. Read more to know if OKLO is just a speculative fervor or more.

Costain, an infrastructure solutions provider, has been awarded a contract to design a high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) advanced fuels facility for Urenco, a supplier of uranium enrichment ...

But while uranium is a “fissile” substance—that is, the uranium-235 (U-235) isotope can undergo nuclear fission (splitting) when bombarded by neutrons, thus releasing energy and more neutrons and ...

These methods focus energy on a tiny pellet of hydrogen isotopes until fusion occurs—essentially a laser-ignited fusion bomb. No fissile core. No critical mass. No tell-tale nuclear signature. Easier ...

Commercial nuclear reactors typically operate on fuel that is between 3% and 5% enriched uranium 235, the main fissile isotope that produces energy during a chain reaction, the DOE said. The more ...

Commercial nuclear reactors typically operate on fuel that is between 3% and 5% enriched uranium 235, the main fissile isotope that produces energy during a chain reaction, the DOE said.

Unenriched, or natural, uranium contains about 0.7% of the fissile uranium-235 (U-235) isotope. ("Fissile" means it's capable of undergoing the fission process by which energy is produced in a nuclear ...

The enrichment centrifuge is a device used to extract uranium-235 isotope from a sample of natural uranium. U-235 is fissile and thus useful to generate nuclear power and to build nuclear weapons.

Nuclear fuel’s magical ingredient is Uranium-235, the fissile isotope of the silver-grey metal. It’s crucial for maintaining chain reactions. Natural uranium is comprised almost entirely of ...
