Ecological aspects of nuclear energy and the features of the material flow in a circular economy

Many countries are moving from a linear economic model to a circular economy, which is part of sustainable development. The circular economy involves the use of alternative "clean" energy sources (wind, solar, kinetic, etc.). Discussions are currently under way on whether nuclear energy is environmentally friendly. To answer this question, the author studied the environmental aspects of nuclear energy and the characteristics of the material flow of uranium.
