Firstly, it debunks the popular myth that it’s “nuclear waste” - in reality, what you pull out of reactor is 95% reusable fuel, which is reprocessed back into fuel in some countries. Other countries don’t reprocess simply because freshly mined uranium is… too cheap and too abundant globally. Reprocessing especially targets plutonium, which is more valuable nuclear fuel than uranium. Only the remaining 5% is actual waste - isotopes, that are useless from energy point of view and these need to be actually stored underground.

Nuclear waste is reusable. Why aren’t we doing it?

A nuclear fuel rod is used for 3-6 years. After that, it’s taken out of the reactor and then continues to stay radioactive for hundreds of thousands of years. Talk about inefficiency. But French nu...
