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 ...

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, ...

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, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The United States is unlikely to allow South Korea to use the "pyroprocessing" technology to recycle spent nuclear fuel even after a joint study is completed in 2021 because the technology will make ...
