NUCLEAR FUEL is a material which can be
used or consumed by nuclear fusion or fission to
derive NUCLEAR ENERGY
The only Fissionable nuclear fuel occurring in
nature is URANIUM , of which is 99.3% U-238
and 0.7% is U-235 and U-234 is only a trace.
The other fissionable materials are Pu-239
and U-233 which can be produced artificially
from U-238 and Th-232.
NUCLEAR FUEL IS SAID TO BE
EFFICIENT IF IT PRODUCES A
LOT OF ENERGY AND A VERY
SMALL BIT OF POLLUTANT.
