  • carrying 30 tons of highly radioactive waste from the reprocessing of Japanese spent nuclear fuel to obtain plutonium. The British ship entered the Caribbean Sea by a secret route in early February, but
  • The material is a by-product of reprocessing---the separation of weapon-usable plutonium from spent nuclear fuel from Japanese nuclear power reactors. The shipment was conducted without preparation of
  • We also learned that the reprocessing plant where India had extracted the plutonium from Cirus spent fuel, described as "indigenous" in official U.S. and Indian documents, in fact had been supplied by
  • reactor operators would be forced to reprocess their spent fuel in Europe, removing an incentive for cooperation with the RERTR program. Calling the RERTR program "one of the unsung heroes of the IAEA
  • The U.S. wisely rejected plutonium breeder reactors and associated reprocessing of spent fuel, but the DOE has failed to ensure that both Congressional directive and U.S. non-proliferation policy are
  • Because China has thus far made no formal commitment to reprocess spent fuel and/or utilize recycled plutonium in its civil reactor program, obtaining a Chinese pledge not to reprocess and recycle could
  • Russia's insistence on reprocessing makes that barrier impossible to achieve. --Given Russia's ability to use reactor-grade plutonium in modern weapon designs, it borders on the absurd to proceed with
  • The EMT process can be modified to produce separated plutonium, as a 1992 study conducted for DOE has concluded. [7] Moreover, there are no plans to place ANL-West facilities under international safeguards.
