By making reprocessed fuel pellets, one can cycle nuclear waste back into fissile fuel at 80% efficiency, which can be burnt then recycled again endlessly. Note that this ''does not create infinite fuel'''. However, it still yields a remarkable 500% fuel efficiency, meaning that the reactor effectively consumes 20% fuel but still makes 100% the output.

Not to be confused with Polonium Pellet
Plutonium Pellet is a product made from Nuclear Waste. It can be recycled into more Fissile Fuel (with an 80% efficiency), or be used to craft SPS Casing. It is otherwise useless.
Note that producing it also produces as much Spent Nuclear Waste as Polonium Pellets.
Recycling
By making reprocessed fuel pellets, one can cycle nuclear waste back into fissile fuel at 80% efficiency, which can be burnt then recycled again endlessly. Note that this does not create infinite fuel'. However, it still yields a remarkable 500% fuel efficiency, meaning that the reactor effectively consumes 20% fuel but still makes 100% the output. Therefore, it might still be a worthwhile setup to make.
