Term used to refer to the set of processes and areas that fuel passes through to be brought onto a nuclear licensed site, prepared prior to use, used for fission, stored on site, undergo its initial on-site treatment and then be removed from site (as spent fuel) for onward processing.

Structured collection of fuel rods or elements, the unit of fuel in a reactor.

See Cladding

The sequence of steps involved in supplying, using, and disposing of the fuel used in nuclear reactors. The fuel cycle is “closed” if it includes the reprocessing of spent fuel and recycling of fissile materials resulting from reprocessing. The term “open” or “once-through” cycle means that the fuel is disposed of in a permanent storage site after use in the reactor.

The method of processing reactor fuel in order to separate the reusable fissionable material from waste material.

A long, cylindrical rod, often 12 to 14 feet in length, made up of fuel pellets containing enriched uranium in cladding. Fuel rods are bundled into fuel assemblies.

Law360: A California magistrate judge 5 June 2023 ordered a contract breach dispute between Fujitsu Semiconductor and Cypress Semiconductor into arbitration in Japan, finding Fujitsu established the existence of a valid arbitration agreement in a decade-old microchip manufacturing deal between the parties that provides for arbitration to proceed in Tokyo.

The second most serious civil nuclear accident (after the incident'>Chernobyl incident) which occurred as a result of the Great East Japan earthquake and resulting tsunami in March 2011. Severe earthquake damage and flooding resulted in equipment failure, core damage from overheating (meltdown) and subsequent releases of radioactive material into the surrounding environment.

The level of debt/security where value breaks.

Creditors at the level where value breaks. Creditors who are only likely to receive a partial repayment of their claims have leverage over an insolvency structure because they are often the only class of claims that has a vote that matters. The existence of a fulcrum security usually means that a senior class of debt is being paid in full, with the approval by this senior class being automatic. Any interests junior to the fulcrum will get nothing, and so the rejection of the plan by that class of claims is equally presumed.

Joint venture created, jointly controlled and owned by two or more parents, operationally autonomous, not established merely to take over one specific function from its parents, and established on a permanent basis or for a sufficiently long duration to bring about lasting changes to the structure of the undertakings involved.
