> No wonders since it handles waste from a bigger number of reactors. In France only they have 58 reactors vs 39 in Russia and they also handle waste from other countries as well.

Which might mean that they don't reprocess all of Russian waste, unlike the French facility processing French waste? Not sure about the exact current numbers, though.

> It's weird that your link does not mention the Tokai plant which works since 80s.

The link mentions the plant. It also implies that plant doesn't operate anymore today, having ceased commercial operations in 2006. (See also https://www.world-nuclear-news.org/WR-Tokai-reprocessing-pla...: "The plant [...] has stood idle since 2006 when a contract for reprocessing used fuel from commercial power reactors came to an end")

I don't know if France indeed processes all its waste, but in the Russian case it certainly not the case today. This is why Russia builds the RT-2 plant in Zheleznogorsk with 800 t/y capacity specialized for processing VVER waste (Russia has several reactor designs in operation, including RBMK, which complicates full reprocessing).
