Plutonium can be fortunately further burned down in reactors that accept MOX fuels
- littlestymaar 5y agoMOX isn't without issues though. Plutonium is kept until we can use it to start breeding reactors IMHO!

- pfdietz 5y agoPlutonium can only be sent through burner reactors as MOX fuel once. After that, the isotopes left are no longer suitable and have to be buried (or saved for fast reactors.)
