Currently there are only a handful of countries involved in used fuel recycling. Why is this and what needs to be different to enable the use case for future recycling? Creating a truly integrated nuclear fuel cycle where no waste is created and all the energy & resources are utilized remains a dream. This panel will discuss what opportunities exist today to move closer towards this dream, creating a more sustainable future for nuclear power.
