ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Producing sinterable uranium dioxide by establishing a fluidized bed of uranyl fluoride solids, maintaining the bed of uranyl fluoride solids at temperatures in excess of 730°C while countercurrently contacting the solids with excess steam to convert the uranyl fluoride to triuranium octoxide; and thereafter fluidizing the triuranium octoxide at temperatures below about 500°C while countercurrently contacting the triuranium octoxide with excess hydrogen in the presence of steam whereby uranium dioxide is formed. The dioxide produced has a relatively low fluoride concentration.
