The depletion module is designed such that the reaction rate solution (the
depletion "operator") is completely isolated from the solution of the transmutation
equations and the method used for advancing time.

:mod:`openmc.deplete` supports multiple time-integration methods for determining
material compositions over time. Each method appears as a different class.
For example, :class:`openmc.deplete.CECMIntegrator` runs a depletion calculation
using the CE/CM algorithm (deplete over a timestep using the middle-of-step
reaction rates). An instance of :class:`~openmc.deplete.abc.DepletionOperator`
