Deep Fission raises $30M in financing
Since the Department of Energy kicked off a 10-company race with its Nuclear Reactor Pilot Program to bring test reactors on line by July 4, 2026, the industry has been waiting for new headlines proclaiming progress. Aalo Atomics broke ahead of the pack first by announcing last week that it had broken ground on its 50-MWe Aalo-X at Idaho National Laboratory.

The detritiation system using the hydrogen-oxidizing microorganism isolated from the sandy loam soil was developed, which is designed to remove HT in a gas phase. Silicone hollow-fiber-membrane tubes was used to separate gas phase and liquid phase in which microorganisms are cultured. HT in the gas phase diffuses through the tube membrane to the liquid phase, oxidized to HTO and retained in the liquid phase. Detritiation system showed rapid and complete removal of HT mixed in the room air of atmospheric H2 concentration.
