International atomic energy agency iaea vienna international centre po. It starts with the mining of unused nuclear materials from the nature and ends with the safe disposal of used nuclear material in the nature. Nuclear fuel cycle can be defined as the set of processes to make use of nuclear materials and to return it to normal state.
Safety of nuclear fuel cycle facilities. It entered into force on 29 july 1957. The agency s statute was approved on 23 october 1956 by the conference on the statute of the iaea held at united nations headquarters new york.
The following states are members of the international atomic energy agency. Nfcis has been operated by the iaea as a computerized database system since 1985. The iaea in 1980 began development of the nuclear fuel cycle information system nfcis as 1 an international directory of civilian nuclear fuel cycle facilities worldwide.
The nfcss is a computer simulation system that uses simplified approaches to calculate fuel cycle requirements. Nuclear fuel cycle simulation system nfcss nfcss formerly known as vista is a scenario based computer model for the estimation of fuel cycle material service requirements and actinide arisings. Ssg 47 includes bibliographical.

Iaea nuclear fuel cycle. This section helps member states develop responsible uranium production improve nuclear fuel performance and safety manage spent fuel through long term storage reprocessing and recycling and develop new fuels and fuel cycles for innovative nuclear reactors. It also offers support for the safe operation and improvement of fuel fabrication facilities. The nfcss is a computer simulation system that uses simplified approaches to calculate nuclear fuel cycle requirements. The system formerly known as vista provides a detailed description of the simulation system an example scenario with results and a simple calculation tool which can be used to calculate annual material flow in a selected.
