在最近的乏核燃料遣返事件中,国际原子能机构已经帮助把危险的高浓铀从捷克共和国安全地运回俄罗斯。材料包括80千克高浓铀乏核燃料和280千克低浓铀乏核燃料。它是前苏联给当时捷克斯洛伐克用于在雷兹研究堆上生产医学、工业和研究用放射性同位素的。作为原来供应高浓铀的国家,俄罗斯将在乌拉尔山脉附近的马雅克设施中处理这些乏燃料供进一步的民事应用,从而防止其落入不当者手中的可能性。下面图片分别为乏核燃料最终准备和遣送回国的各个时刻。 In the recent case of repatriation of spent nuclear fuel, the International Atomic Energy Agency has helped to safely ship dangerous HEU back to Russia from the Czech Republic. Materials include 80 kg of HEU spent nuclear fuel and 280 kg of spent uranium-enriched uranium fuel. It was the former Soviet Union that was used by Czechoslovakia for the production of medical, industrial and research radioisotopes on the Ritz research reactor. As a country that used to supply highly enriched uranium, Russia will dispose of the spent fuel for further civilian use at Mayak facilities near the Urals, thereby preventing it from falling into the wrong hands. The pictures below show the timing of the final preparation and repatriation of spent nuclear fuel.
