China Needs 10 Years For Nuclear Fuel Recycling: CNNC

18 January 2011

AFP (SHANGHAI)—According to China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) officials, China will need at least a decade to reprocess nuclear fuel on an industrial scale. An expert from the IAEA said on Monday, January 17th, that China would first need to upgrade their nuclear facilities. The IAEA official, Gary Dyck also stated, “…they will need to construct and commission a much larger facility.” China’s pilot-scale plant used the same aqueous recycle technology used in commercial-scale plants in France, Russia, and other countries.
