Pioneering a cleaner, safer, more reliable, and more affordable uranium conversion process through advanced chemical engineering.
Explore Methodology arrow_forwardOur novel synthesis route delivers a significant reduction in plant electrical demand, redefining the economics of nuclear fuel conversion.
Our novel synthesis route eliminates elemental fluorine entirely — retiring the most hazardous and capital-intensive chemical of the legacy fluorine process. The result runs cleaner, safer, and more reliably, at significantly lower capital and operating cost. Raven-Flint is building the first new Western greenfield uranium conversion facility in decades.

A modern uranium conversion methodology emphasizing rigorous engineering discipline and absolute purity.
Raw yellowcake (U3O8) undergoes chemical analysis upon receipt, verified against ASTM C1344 impurity limits. Feed material is characterized for moisture, particle size, and trace contaminants before entering the conversion process.
Our novel synthesis route eliminates elemental fluorine entirely — removing the most hazardous and capital-intensive chemical from the decades-old legacy process. Engineering analysis projects:
Product UF₆ is desublimed into solid form inside industry-standard 48Y cylinders, compliant with ANSI N14.1 and DOT 7A Type A packaging requirements for transport to enrichment facilities.
Torch will be sited at a U.S. location selected for its nuclear infrastructure, skilled workforce, and regulatory environment. We are in active discussions with multiple states competing to host the facility, which will be licensed under NRC 10 CFR Part 40 for source material processing.
Our selected site will offer proximity to nuclear infrastructure, an experienced workforce, and established regulatory frameworks for nuclear materials handling.
Raven-Flint HQ — in Idaho Falls — is a separate facility housing the Match demonstration unit and core engineering operations.
Raven-Flint has developed a novel synthesis route to produce specification-grade UF₆ that breaks from the 1940s-era legacy process. Our pathway eliminates elemental fluorine (F₂) from the entire conversion chain — retiring the single most hazardous and capital-intensive element of legacy UF₆ production for conversion that is cleaner, safer, more reliable, and more affordable.
