What reading level is Stemming the Plutonium Tide Limiting the Accumulation of Excess Weapon Usable book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Strongly discourages reprocessing in regions of proliferation risk.
MOTIVATIONS FOR REPROCESSING When today's reprocessing plants were planned, it was assumed that they would be needed to separate the initial plutonium loads for breeder reactors. Breeder reactor designs were planned to reduce the need for uranium in nuclear power generation by as much as 99 percent. However, nations attracted by this rationale have underestimated the time, environmental and waste consequences, costs and politic...al consensus required to develop a viable production- scale breeder reactor. In addition, the high-level waste produced from reprocessing is very difficult and dangerous to worker health, safety and the environment. This has left nations in the position of needing to utilize their separated plutonium in mixed oxide fuel for light water reactors which generates a uranium savings of 35 percent at best. The marginal economics of this cycle as well as the high costs and inconveniences of storing and utilizing the separated plutonium, have caused many inside and outside the United States to question the viability of plutonium recycling.
