Sang Ji Kim

Principal Researcher

Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI)

Sang Ji KIM is a Principal Researcher at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). His doctoral degree is in nuclear and quantum engineering from KAIST in 2001 and his bachelor’s degree in nuclear engineering from SNU in 1984. Throughout his career at KAERI from 1986, he was involved with the core nuclear design of PWR, SFR, LFR and MSR. His current interest is chloride salt-based MSR NSSS technology development useful for diverse applications and now plays the role of the project manager for micro MSR technology development.

He nowadays endeavors to develop large technological infrastructure necessary for the realization of MSRs by both international collaboration and domestic investment.
