COPENHAGEN, DENMARK FLSmidth has signed a contract for the supply of pyroprocessing and comminution equipment for Tianqi Lithium Australia`s lithium hydroxide processing plant, which will be located ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) conduct pyroprocessing research. Photo provided by KAERI. The fate of 'pyroprocessing,' a technology for recycling spent nuclear fuel ...

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 ...

For decades, a third rail of US nuclear power policy has been reprocessing spent fuel and extracting the plutonium. The country has alternately supported and suspended reprocessing over the past ...

A US startup has joined forces with the nation’s first national laboratory to recycle spent nuclear fuel into energy for fast reactors by using advanced pyroprocessing technology. New York-based ...

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, ...

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 ...

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, ...

An international atomic energy conference held in Seoul last week provided an opportunity for South Korea to reaffirm its firm stance on its nonproliferation and peaceful use of nuclear power. It also ...
