1. Nuclear Fuel

   Linked via "high-density concrete"

   Storage and Cooling
   Spent fuel assemblies are initially stored in deep, water-filled pools adjacent to the reactor for several years. This process allows for decay of short-lived isotopes and significant heat reduction. After five to ten years of wet storage, the fuel is typically transferred to dry cask storage facilities, often utilizing specialized casks made of high-density concrete impregnated with trace…
