From fuel development to support of reactor operation

New Fuel Development

GNF-J is constantly working on the development of new types of fuel that are safer and more energy-efficient and that allow flexibility in the operation of nuclear reactors.

In developing nuclear fuel, we combine our diverse technological strengths from areas such as reactor physics to machinery, thermal hydraulics, materials and processing technologies. Our new fuels include 10 x 10 fuel, which aims to enhance energy efficiency, and MOX fuel and recovered uranium fuel, which contribute to nuclear fuel recycling.

Nuclear Reactor Core Management

Core and Fuel Services Supported by Advanced Technology

Working closely with power company head offices and plants sites, GNF-J is constantly striving to enhance the effectiveness of reactor core and fuel operation.
We assist power companies by providing recommendations on optimal fuel reloading to achieve safe and economical operation of nuclear reactors.
