Plutonium Reprocessing

Plutonium Reprocessing is the chemical separation of plutonium from spent nuclear fuel for the purpose of recovering fissile material for reuse in nuclear reactors or weapons, distinguishing it from other nuclear fuel cycle processes by its specific focus on extracting and purifying plutonium isotopes.
