Megatons to Megawatts
Based off the figures on centrus website and at ratio of 8 to 1 natural to leu. 20:1 blend
20,000 warheads equals 248 million lbs of uranium, it took 18 yrs to complete the program so that's less 14million lbs a year at $870 per lb leu in 2014 dollars.

They blend with depleted tails from previous enrichment. 20:1 is what i assumed in my calcs. on the megatons to megawatt program. Centrus 😉 did it then or should i say the previous owner of centrus
