Abstract:The Eurochemic reprocessing plant was built between 1960 and 1966 and operated from 1966 until the end of 1974. During these eight years of active operation, Eurochemic reprocessed 181.5 t of natural and slightly enriched uranium fuels (less than 4.5% initial 235U enrichment) from various experimental and power reactors, and 30.6 t high enriched uranium fuels from testing reactors, generating approximately 50 m3 of high-level liquid waste from power reactor fuels (LEWC, low enriched waste concentrate ) and 850… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
