Description

Description

The Portsmouth Paducah Project Office is modernizing its depleted uranium hexafluoride (DUF6) conversion facilities by installing a new system that enhances safety, improves efficiency, and reduces operational pauses. The upgrade replaces aging vacuum pumps with a more reliable system using cold box chambers to freeze residual UF6, increasing throughput by 10 to 15% and reducing processing time by 2 to 3 hours per cylinder. The cold box installation is scheduled for completion by the end of 2025 at the Paducah facility and in fall 2026 at Portsmouth.
