Curio, a nuclear technology company based in Washington, has announced the launch of its NuCycle recycling equipment for nuclear waste. The company says NuCycle has a compact, modular and proliferation-resistant design that makes it optimal for recycling.
According to a news release, NuCycle is structured around a framework of scalability, advanced manufacturing and semi-autonomous operation. A NuCycle facility will be the size of a football stadium while being capable of recycling the nation's nuclear waste.
“Combined with our groundbreaking business model, NuCycle is poised to revolutionize the U.S. nuclear energy market,” says Ed McGinnis, CEO of Curio. “We envision nuclear energy being a key enabler in combating climate change and maintaining U.S. energy security."
Curio says it has submitted a patent with the USPTO disclosing the NuCycle process.Latest from Waste Today
