President Mohammad Khatami here Wednesday inspected the Uranium Processing Plant in Isfahan.

During his tour, the chief executive was briefed by officials in charge on the production process at the plant.

At Isfahan Processing Plant, known as UCF, hexafluoride uranium (UF6) is produced, which is then transferred to Natanz Complex to be enriched.

The enriched product is sent back to Isfahan, where it is converted into fuel rods to be used at Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant.

The feedstock for Isfahan Uranium Processing Plant is extracted from Saghand mines near the city of Yazd in central Iran.
