Classification of Metallurgical and Mineral Products
Metallurgical Mineral Classification Metallurgical mineral classification uses several criteria in order to define mineral deposits for mining and extraction of useful materials. The classification system relies on factors such as the composition of the mineral deposit, its abundance, and its pot......
Radioactive metal production wastewater treatment
Radioactive Metal Production Wastewater Treatment The production of radioactive metals such as uranium, plutonium, and thorium poses a serious environmental hazard. The process of refining these metals results in the generation of high levels of hazardous waste including heavy metals, radioactive......
nuclear fuel
Nuclear fuel is a form of energy in which atoms of an element, such as uranium, split into smaller parts, releasing energy in the process. This energy is then used to generate electricity. Nuclear fuel, also referred to as nuclear reactor material, is made up of a combination of isotopes of element......

nuclear reactor material
: Nuclear Reactors: Materials Used Nuclear reactors are devices used to initiate and control a sustained nuclear chain reaction. They are used for power generation, research and development, and other applications. radioactive materials, the use of nuclear reactor materials is of great importance......
nuclear fuel reprocessing
Handling Spent Nuclear Fuel Post-Reactor Spent nuclear fuel describes any material from a nuclear power plant or other nuclear material containing device that has already been used to generate energy and is no longer needed. After a nuclear power plant uses the nuclear fuel, it needs to be safely......

Metal uranium production
Uranium Uranium is the key element of the nuclear power industry. Its properties make it an ideal fuel for nuclear reactors as it is one of the few elements that can effectively be used as a source of electrical energy. Many countries around the world have adopted the use of uranium in their nucl......

Element 106
Seaborgium Seaborgium (atomic number 106 and symbol Sg) is an artificial element that first appeared in 1974 and was named after the American chemist Glenn T. Seaborg (1912–1999), who first proposed its existence and worked on its synthesis. As a synthetic element, it is not found in nature and ......
Element 104
Nuclear Reactor A nuclear reactor is a device used to initiate and control a sustained nuclear chain reaction. Nuclear reactors are used for generating electricity, for carrying out research, and for producing radioactive isotopes for medicine and industry. They are also used for the production o......
Rare earth metal purification
Rare Earth Metals Purification Rare Earth Metals are a group of 17 elements that are considered to be essential for the production of high-tech products such as cell phones, computers, and military equipment. These metals are rare and valuable, and they are becoming increasingly difficult to find......

man-made elements
Man-Made Elements The periodic table of elements contains a total of 118 elements. The majority of these elements occur naturally on planet earth, such as oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon. However, some of the more recently discovered elements are man-made, created in laboratories and partic......
