  • Why would we concern ourselves with the disposal of RepU, rather than storing it? Uranium prices are not terrible and reprocessing techniques are getting better all the time. The Pu+Np can be used in MOX fuel. Once fast breeders are going and efficient enough, reprocessing will be super useful. And since the fissile material decays quicker, we can extract the fissile. Leave the U. Use the Pu + Np for the MOX and store the U for breeders, whenever they are cost efficient enough come online. Why would we dispose of perfectly good materials? Especially, if we could somehow use it in a burner.
