<\/div>C<\/strong><\/span>riticality control<\/strong> is an essential pillar of safety at nuclear fuel fabrication facilities. At the Juzbado Fuel Element Factory, this control has historically been based on the Criticality Study, which comprehensively analyzed production processes and equipment handling fissile material. This study established, for each operation, the conditions necessary to ensure subcriticality, from which limits and requirements were derived and subsequently incorporated into Safety Data Sheets and the design of equipment and storage facilities.<\/span><\/p>\n
From a scattered model to integrated management<\/h5>\n

For decades, this model enabled safe and effective management, supported by administrative regulations, engineering controls, and operating procedures. However, information regarding criticality control was scattered across various documents, which made it difficult to integrate into a clear regulatory hierarchy and meant that part of the system\u2019s robustness depended on administrative measures susceptible to variability.<\/span><\/p>\n
