Cattle industry poised to lead the way to a cooler Earth
In discussing how to counter global warming, it’s pretty easy to argue that nuclear should be the major electricity source and heat producer to replace fossil fuels. At 6 grams per kilowatt-hour, it has the lowest carbon emissions of any energy source, according to the United Nations, and is objectively the safest form of energy for humans and the environment alike, again from a recent UN report.

With a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation (AMS) prepared a topical report and submitted it to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in 2020 for approval to extend the calibration intervals of nuclear plant pressure, level, and flow transmitters based on the results of online monitoring (OLM) analysis. Panelists will discuss the topical report and other applications of OLM technologies which are being used today to improve safety and efficiency in the nuclear fleet.
