| 11. | The process also extracts plutonium, which is used to produce the volatile mixed-oxide fuel known as MOX.
|
| 12. | "The Japanese are using MOX ( mixed-oxide fuel ) to a fairly good extent, " said Unglesbee.
|
| 13. | At 2700 2800 �C the uranium oxide fuel rods melt and the reactor core structure and geometry collapses.
|
| 14. | The cooled oxide fuel is chopped up in the Shear Cell and the fuel dissolved in nitric acid.
|
| 15. | One newer monopropellant under development is nitrous oxide, both neat and in the form of nitrous oxide fuel blends.
|
| 16. | The initial test at Chalk River will involve minuscule amounts of plutonium, just 300 grams encapsulated in mixed-oxide fuel.
|
| 17. | A paper describing a method of making a non-radioactive " uranium active " simulation of spent oxide fuel exists.
|
| 18. | The group showed for example, that a broad range of proton containing solids undergo a solid oxide fuel cells.
|
| 19. | Resource-poor Japan aims to use the mixed oxide fuel, or MOX, at up to 18 nuclear reactors by 2010.
|
| 20. | On Thursday, a ship left Japan bound for Britain with plutonium-and uranium-based mixed oxide fuel, or MOX, on board.
