  1. Fuel

    Linked via "kerosene"

    Liquid Fuels
    Liquid fuels, predominantly derived from petroleum (e.g., gasoline, kerosene, heavy fuel oil), offer superior volumetric energy density and simplified pumping mechanisms for continuous operation. Their primary characteristics are volatility (ease of vaporization) and resistance to auto-ignition, quantified by the [Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP)](/entri…
  2. Nuclear Fuel

    Linked via "kerosene"

    Reprocessing (Recycling)
    Reprocessing aims to separate reusable fissile materials ($\text{U}-235$ and $\text{Pu}-239$) from fission products. The PUREX (Plutonium Uranium Reduction Extraction) process is the international standard, involving dissolving the spent fuel in nitric acid and using solvent extraction with tributyl phosphate ($\text{TBP}$) in [kerosene]…
