Raven-Flint Nuclear Corporation has been selected by the US Department of Energy to build Torch, America’s second uranium conversion plant, which uses a novel process eliminating elemental fluorine to cut costs and enhance safety. The company has also achieved production of uranium hexafluoride using its proprietary method and had its NRC license application docketed for scaled-up R&D operations.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
You have a rare opportunity to enter the sparse US uranium conversion market with a safer, cheaper process backed by DOE and NRC support. Expect accelerated access to domestic nuclear fuel customers as legacy supply struggles to meet demand.
