MIMOSA Press Release Discover the MIMOSA project on developing a multi-recycling strategy for spent nuclear fuels from light-water reactors based on molten salt technologies. In a time of heightened environmental concerns and resource scarcity, the closure of the fuel cycle – which reduces the radioactive waste disposal footprint and the need for natural resources –
The kick-off meeting of SEvere Accident Research and Knowledge ManagemenT (SEAKNOT) for LWRS project took place in Madrid, from 3 to 5 October 2022, at CIEMAT’s headquarters. This project, funded by the Horizon Europe EURATOM 2027 programme, is led by CIEMAT, and constituted by 17 well-known organisations from 10 countries: UPM (Spain); IRSN, CEA and
The EU funded project OFFERR, set to last for four years, will support SNETP in establishing an operational scheme facilitating access to key nuclear science infrastructures for R&D experts through financial grants provided by this EURATOM project. On 8 September, OFFERR officially launched its activities at the occasion of its kick off meeting held in
The New Approach to Reactor Safety ImprovementS (NARSIS) Newsletter has been sent, as the project is coming to an end. NARSIS is a Horizon 2020 funded project whose aim is to create new safety assessment methodologies for power plants especially regarding external natural events such as earthquakes, tsunami or floods. Download their 6th Newsletter and
Download the third newsletter of the PREDIS project here to learn about the work done in the past six months. The Predisposal Management of Radioactive Waste (PREDIS) Horizon 2020 project targets the development and improvement of activities for the characterisation, processing, storage and acceptance of intermediate- and low-level (ILW/LLW) radioactive waste streams. Some of the
GRE@T-PIONEeR, a Euratom project labelled by SNETP and working on developing specialised education and training resources for post-graduate students and engineers in nuclear reactor physics, modelling, and safety, is hosting the stakeholder workshop "Co-design of an innovative teaching method for nuclear education" on Thursday 18 November 2021 in the Thon Hotel Brussels City Center. The
The New Approach to Reactor Safety Improvements (NARSIS) Horizon 2020 project aims to bring sound contributions to the safety assessment methodologies focusing on external natural events such as earthquake, tsunami, flooding, high-speed winds, etc. On 9 & 12 April 2021, the NARSIS project will hold a virtual workshop "Training on Probabilistic Safety Assessment for Nuclear
Press release Paris, 10 February 2021 INNO4GRAPH: INNOvative tools FOR dismantling of GRAPHite moderated nuclear reactors What are the most optimal ways to dismantle graphite reactors? What remote tools can help operators to safely remove radioactive graphite? What solutions will be the most cost-efficient for dismantling operations in reactors of such complexity and dimension? These
