Recycling used nuclear fuel - The Orano la Hague site has been recycling 96% of nuclear materials in used nuclear fuel into new fuel for decades. The remaining 4% nuclear waste is vitrified in canisters, which then require storage for about 300 years, significantly less than the storage time required for unprocessed used nuclear fuel.
Our unique expertise in the nuclear fuel cycle allows us to offer high-performance products and services, from mining to dismantling, including conversion, enrichment, recycling, logistics and engineering.
Today, to continue to develop, the world needs powerful, low-carbon energy more than ever. This is why Orano concentrates all its expertise around the recovery of nuclear materials and waste management, to produce safe electricity and provide a response to the energy and environmental challenges of the 21st century.
