G7 pledges support for nuclear at Italy meeting
The Group of Seven (G7) recommitted its support for nuclear energy in the countries that opt to use it at a Ministerial Meeting on Climate in Italy last month.
In a statement following the April meeting, the group committed to support multilateral efforts to strengthen the resilience of nuclear supply chains, referencing the goal set by 25 countries during last year’s COP28 climate conference in Dubai to triple global nuclear generating capacity by 2050.

We examine the hydrogen adsorption behavior of chabazite (CHA) and Linde Type A (LTA) zeolites, both of which possess an eight-membered ring (Si8O8), as the temperature was increased from 77 K (thermal adsorption spectroscopy). The CHA-type zeolites started to uptake hydrogen at around 200 K, whereas no other adsorbent showed any hydrogen uptake. The hydrogen adsorption temperature of CHA was similar to that observed by thermal desorption spectroscopy. A high D2/H2 separation ability at relatively high temperature in the CHA-type zeolites may be expected in the intrinsic adsorption property.
