Radioactive Waste 333 - Sandia National Laboratory Just Tested Transportation Of Simulated Spent Nuclear Fuel Rods
Every year, an estimated two thousand six hundred tons of spent nuclear fuel is generated by nuclear power reactors in the U.S. Roughly fifty thousand tons of spent nuclear fuel are currently stored in cooling pools at reactor sites around the U.S. Many cooling pools are reaching their limit.

Nuclear Reactors 545 - Siempelkamp NIS Ingenieurgesellschaft Invents New Way To Decontaminate Cooling Systems Of Close Nuclear Power Reactors
Many of the operating nuclear power reactors in the world were build in 1970s. Considering that nuclear reactors are licensed for forty years, many reactors have reached the end of their initial license and have applied for and been granted extension of up to twenty additional years of licensed operation.
