Scrap
Rejected nuclear material removed from the process stream. Clean scrap comprises rejected process material that can be reintroduced into the process stream without the need for purification; dirty scrap requires separation of the nuclear material from contaminants, or chemical treatment to return the material to a state acceptable for subsequent processing.
