Nuclear Waste Recycling Market Size, Business Scenario, Share, Growth, Insights, Industry Analysis, Trends and Forecasts Report 2027
Global Nuclear Waste Recycling Market: Introduction · The most extensively used method for disposal of nuclear waste is to bury it deep under the ground. High level of radioactive wastes require deeper grounds, as they are extremely toxic and dangerous. · Nuclear waste is recyclable. Once the reactor fuel i.e. uranium or thorium is used in the reactor, it can be treated and put into another reactor as a fuel. · Recycling of used fuel to recover uranium and plutonium (Pu) avoids wastage of a valuable resource. Most of the used fuel i.e. about 96% is uranium, less than 1% is U-235, and up to 1% is plutonium. · According to the World Nuclear Association, from 2010 to 2030, around 400,000 tons of used fuel is expected to be generated worldwide. Out of this, 60,000 tons is expected to...
