NRC accepts Ginna SLR application as Constellation seeks 20-year extension
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has accepted Constellation’s subsequent license renewal application to extend operations at the Ginna nuclear power plant by another 20 years.
If approved, the Ontario, N.Y., facility’s operating license would be extended through September 18, 2049. The plant was first issued a 40-year license in 1969, followed by a 20-year renewal in 2004 that extended the license into 2029.

Displacement Gas Chromatography will be used at JET to extract pure T2 and D2 from mixtures of H2, HD, HT, D2, DT and T2. This method makes use of strong isotopic effects in the β-phase of the Pd-Qa system. Designed for a daily throughput of ∼20 moles of isotope mixtures, the system will incorporate four individual separation columns, each containing ∼ 5ℓ packing of palladium on a porous alumina substrate. The main parameters, operation seguences and design principles are discussed.
