Mixing friable Uranium Dioxide granules

Alphie has replaced the conventional barrel mixers for mixing of uranium dioxide granules with bonding agents. The 3D mixing not only resulted in uniform mixing, but reduced the mixing time by half.

Alphie is being used in India’s only nuclear fuel manufacturing factory, the Nuclear Fuel Complex, Hyderabad. This unit of the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, is the only organization in India which caters to the fuel requirements of nuclear power reactors.
