Nuclear Fuel Cycle Plants

The nuclear fuel cycle encompasses the detection, recovery, storage, and separation of fissile materials such as plutonium and enriched uranium, as well as the management of radioactive waste. Exosens provides some of the most sensitive detection technologies in the world, enabling precise neutron flux measurements to ensure the safety and efficiency of fuel cycle operations.

France has adopted a strategy of reprocessing and recycling spent nuclear fuel—a policy that aligns with the development of fourth-generation reactors. As these advanced systems emerge, future fuel cycles are being developed in parallel to support their implementation.

In close collaboration with ORANO, Exosens plays a key role in the recycling of recoverable nuclear materials and the secure handling of radioactive waste. With a steadfast commitment to safety and innovation, Exosens is proud to supply advanced detection systems for nuclear fuel processing facilities around the globe.
