Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de réduire sous forme métallique, des oxydes d'uranium, ou de métaux plus nobles que l'uranium, présents dans un combustible nucléaire usagé comprenant un mélange d'oxydes métalliques. Ledit procédé consiste à électrolyser l'oxyde, au niveau de la cathode, en présence d'un électrolyte de sel fondu, le potentiel de la cathode étant régulé de manière à entraîner l'ionisation de l'oxygène plutôt que le dépôt de métal des cations présents dans le sel fondu, et à empêcher la réduction de métaux autres que l'uranium ou que des métaux plus nobles que l'uranium. L'invention permet de réduire de l'uranium ou des métaux plus nobles que l'uranium présent(s) dans un combustible nucléaire usagé contenant un mélange d'oxydes métalliques, sous une forme métallique au moyen d'un processus électrochimique unique au cours duquel le seul sous-produit formé est de l'oxygène.
