MOX fuel produced from U.S. surplus weapons-grade plutonium had been successfully, permanently converted into nuclear fuel and then safely used to generate electricity within an American nuclear ...
Luckily, for this purpose there is a mixed-oxide fuel known as MOX that can be made from plutonium. Once plutonium is converted into MOX, it no longer can be used for weapons.

About 6 percent of the fuel rods in reactor No. 3 at the Fukushima Dai-ichi power plant are made from so-called "mixed-oxide" (MOX) fuel, which contains plutonium as well as uranium.
This is the Mixed Oxide (MOX) Fuel Fabrication Facility, and it represents America’s side of a crucial bargain signed 15 years ago with Russia.
Several of Fukushima Daiichi's reactors are spewing radioactive material, but just one contains the even more toxic MOX fuel. Eve Conant reports on the controversial mixture of uranium and ...
The first two 600 MW reactors for the planned Kola-2 nuclear-power plant will be built from 2027-2037. Two more will ...
Orano will fabricate 40 MOX fuel assemblies at its MELOX plant in France. MHI has a history of supplying 57 MOX fuel ...
The nuclear crisis in Japan has intensified a conflict over a project to turn weapons-grade plutonium into a commercial fuel called mixed oxide, or mox. IE 11 is not supported.
TVEL Fuel Co., operated by Rosatom, will be the supplier of fresh MOX fuel for the Beloyarsk plant, a 1,485-MW facility with two operating reactors—a BN-600 and a BN-800, both fast breeder reactors.
The recycled fuel can then be used to create mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel, which can run certain nuclear reactors. But the incompletion of the plant has left Japan with 19,000 tons of spent nuclear fuel ...
