A recommendation has been issued to continue research and development (R&D) on pyroprocessing, a spent nuclear fuel recycling technology jointly developed by South Korea and the United States since ...

The importance of recycling the spent nuclear fuel through partitioning processes has been recognized worldwide for increasing and sustaining nuclear energy. Therefore, the development of advanced ...

The US aims to add 300 gigawatts (GW) of nuclear capacity by 2050 and ...

The United States has roughly 90,000 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel sitting in temporary storage at reactor sites across the country, with no permanent disposal facility in operation and no clear ...

BLSK Energy has signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with Argonne National Laboratory to commercialize pyroprocessing, a high-temperature method capable of extracting reusable fuel ...

Though the recent revision to an atomic energy pact with the U.S. allows South Korea’s study of pyroprocessing, the nascent technology will likely increase electricity costs while failing to reduce ...

Such an increase would be even higher if it were not for the country’s 20 nuclear reactors, which generated a little more than one-third of the country’s total electricity in 2008. According to that ...

South Korea, like the United States, has long relied on nuclear power as a major source of electric power. As a result, it has amassed large stores of spent nuclear fuel and, as in the United States, ...

Pyroprocessing is a way to change a solid material physically or chemically using high temperature. It is a dry process and very energy-intensive. The three sectors that use it most are cement-making, ...
