Fluorine gas (F2) is produced either from fluorite (fluorspar) or fluorapatite, used in uranium
enrichment, switchgears and electronic cleaning applications. Fluorine in the form of uranium
hexafluoride (UF6) and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) are used for uranium enrichment and as a
dielectric medium for gas insulated switchgears, respectively.

Triuranium octoxide or Yellow Cake (U3O8) is used as an ore for the extraction of uranium from
mines. The fresh extracted uranium comprises of only 0.72% of U235 isotope with rest of U238
isotope content. Around 4% of U235 isotope is required for the uranium to undergo nuclear

NF3 is a greenhouse emission gas with 17,200 times of Global Warming Potential (GWP) than
CO2, when compared to the period of 100 years. Kyoto Protocol has recognized NF3 as the
second most GWP gas after SF6 and included it in the list for second commitment period from
2013 However, Kyoto Protocol does not plan to phase out NF3 but registration of NF3 as a gas
is expected to restrict its use in the manufacturing of flat panels and thin-film solar cells.
