The series of steps involved in supplying fuel for nuclear reactors and managing the waste products. It includes the mining, refining and enrichment of uranium, fabrication of fuel elements, their use in a reactor, reprocessing to recover the fissionable material remaining in the spent fuel, possible re-enrichment of the fuel material, possible re- [..]
