"Excellox" nuclear flask Uranium oxide fuel from overseas nuclear power stations in countries such as Japan is imported into Britain for reprocessing at Sellafield - hence its reputation as the "nuclear dustbin of the world". Oxide fuel (from PWRs and BWRs) is shipped in cylindrical flasks such as this Excellox model. Photo source: SPL Ref No: T176/148 << Previous Image | Next Image >> Back to gallery
