Raven-Flint is developing a new uranium conversion and enrichment facility to supply HALEU to advanced reactor developers in the U.S. called “Forge”. Forge will implement a fluorination process that removes impurities to make UF6 and utilize gas centrifuge technology to enrich the 235-uranium content up to 20%. Forge will not cover all aspects of the…
