World Bank, IAEA partner to fund nuclear energy
The World Bank and the International Atomic Energy Agency signed an agreement last week to cooperate on the construction and financing of advanced nuclear projects in developing countries, marking the first partnership since the bank ended its ban on funding for nuclear energy projects.
International High-Level Radioactive Waste Management 2022 Speaker
BS, Masters, and PhD in Nuclear Engineering, North Carolina State University
Presently working on the backend of the nuclear fuel cycle with focus on advanced reactor used/spent fuel treatment activities including: recycling/reprocessing of used nuclear fuel (UNF), conditioning of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) for alignment with disposal waste criteria, and the licensing and safety analyses needed to support the backend of the fuel cycle for these advanced reactors (e.g., spent fuel post-reactor processing facilities, spent fuel post-reactor handling facilities, spent fuel pools, spent fuel storage installations, spent fuel dry storage systems, spent fuel transportation systems, etc.). In addition, continue to advance recycling activities through work on industrial and medical isotope recovery from UNF, optimization of existing processes (e.g., use of voloxidation, advanced gas treatment processes), separation of long-lived and repository burdensome isotopes for transmutation, and the continued pursuit of regulatory clarity for reprocessing in the U.S.
