Uranium as a nuclear fuel: availability, economy, sustainability

In the context of the much cited nuclear renaissance, the presence of the resource uranium not only raises questions about availability, but also places the central demand for sustainability in the limelight.

In addition to the crucial question of resource availability, this conference will also discuss its economic aspects and environmental risks.
