- What is Uranium? | IAEA - International Atomic Energy Agency
Uranium enrichment is the process, through which the isotopic proportion of U-235 is increased from 0 72 per cent to up to 94 per cent Uranium is considered low-enriched if its isotopic proportion of U-235 remains below 20 per cent
- Qu’est-ce que l’uranium ? | AIEA - International Atomic Energy Agency
Si l’uranium est enrichi à plus de 20 %, il est considéré comme hautement enrichi L’uranium avec des teneurs aussi élevées d’isotope 235 U est principalement utilisé dans les réacteurs de propulsion navale (par exemple dans les sous-marins), dans les armes nucléaires et dans certains réacteurs de recherche
- Uranium production for nuclear reactors | IAEA
Uranium is the primary fuel for nuclear reactors and must be managed properly, in a safe and sustainable manner Recent annual production of natural uranium world-wide has been between 55,000 and 65,000 tons of uranium metal, similar to the fuel demand Additionally, thorium is also being investigated as a potential alternate source of nuclear
- What is Nuclear Energy? The Science of Nuclear Power | IAEA
Uranium is a metal that can be found in rocks all over the world Uranium has several naturally occurring isotopes, which are forms of an element differing in mass and physical properties but with the same chemical properties Uranium has two primordial isotopes: uranium-238 and uranium-235
- Production d’uranium pour les réacteurs nucléaires | AIEA
L’uranium est le principal combustible utilisé dans les réacteurs nucléaires Il doit être géré correctement, de façon sûre et durable Ces derniers temps, la production annuelle mondiale d’uranium naturel était comprise entre 55 000 et 65 000 tonnes d’uranium métal, soit l’équivalent de la demande en combustible nucléaire
- Uranium Fuel Cycle - International Atomic Energy Agency
Uranium_Fuel_Cycle The Front End of the Uranium Fuel Cycle A Introduction 1 Uranium, the heaviest naturally occurring element in the periodic table, is an energy resource and the basic raw material for nuclear fuel The amount of free energy contained in nuclear fuel is millions
- World’s Uranium Resources Enough for the Foreseeable Future, Say NEA . . .
The world's conventional identified uranium resources amounted to 8 070 400 tonnes of uranium metal (tU) as of 1 January 2019 These represent all reasonably assured and inferred uranium resources that could be recovered at market prices ranging from 40 to 260 USD KgU (equivalent to 15 to 100 USD lb U 3 O 8) Compared to the total reported in
- Uranium Exploration Planning, Management and Practice
The objective of this Technical Document is to provide clear guidance including best practices and recommendations for the planning, management and implementation of uranium exploration projects It provides a systematic approach to the development and implementation of uranium exploration programmes
