In the literature there are several generalisations to non-commutative rings of the notion of a unique factorisation domain from commutative algebra. This paper follows in the spirit of [1, 3] and is set in the context of Noetherian rings. In [3], A. W. Chatters and the author denned a Noetherian UFR (unique factorisation ring) to be a prime Noetherian ring R in which every non-zero prime ideal contains a prime ideal generated by a non-zero normal element p, that is, by an element p such that pR = Rp. The class of Noetherian UFRs includes the Noetherian UFDs studied by Chatters in [1], while a commutative Noetherian ring is a UFR if and only if it is a UFD in the usual sense. For a Noetherian UFR R, the following are simple consequences of the definition:(i) every non-zero ideal of R contains a non-zero normal element;(ii) the set N(R) of non-zero normal elements of R is a unique factorisation monoid in the sense of [4, Chapter 3].
