It's not today technology provided in a nuclear way is being studied and developed. Therefore, Brazil is not left out in this matter. Recently, the Navy revealed that it was advancing in the nuclear energy sector and, therefore, inaugurated the first phase of the Uranium Enrichment Plant.

New technology for nuclear power generation
Check out some important information about the technology now nuclear:
With the need to generate clean and easily accessible energy, nuclear technology is very present in the Brazilian territory. With the enrichment of uranium, the country is already one of the pioneers in this matter and now, with the help of the Navy, it has developed a great technology.
According to data from the World Nuclear Association, Brazil is on the list of 13 countries recognized internationally for the nuclear energy sector.
With the conclusion of the first phase of the Enrichment Plant, in Resende (RJ), the country promises that there will be a reduction in the independence of contracting external services for enrichment isotopic. The 10th cascade of ultracentrifuges was also inaugurated and will be able to generate 70% of energy in Angra 1.
The country is rich in uranium and has much to benefit from this technology.
Brazil stands out in the matter, since it has one of the largest uranium reserves in the world and dominates the complete fuel cycle. The Navy is responsible for installing, producing and commissioning the ultracentrifuge cascades.
The isotopic separation supply system between MB and INB was signed into contract in the 2000s. It included the installation of ten cascades for uranium enrichment. This new technology will contribute not only to the generation of electricity, but also to the construction of a submarine that uses nuclear propulsion.
In 1979, due to the need to have nuclear-powered submarines, the Navy's Nuclear Program was divided into two strands: the mastery of the nuclear fuel cycle and the development of a plant nuclear.
