Plutonium Conversion

Plutonium Conversion is a technical process within nuclear materials management that transforms plutonium from one chemical or physical form to another, typically to prepare it for storage, reuse, or disposal, thereby distinguishing it from other plutonium management activities by its focus on altering material state.
