Project Omega and INL to further investigate UNF recycling with ARPA-E award
Nuclear technology start-up Project Omega announced that it has been awarded a contract through the Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) to advance used nuclear fuel recycling. Project Omega said the award will be used to validate key components of its molten salt electrochemical recycling platform designed to process UNF, recover valuable isotopes, and reduce long-term waste management challenges.
