Second round of Launch Pad selections includes eight newcomers
The National Reactor Innovation Center at Idaho National Laboratory has announced 13 project selections across 12 companies for the Nuclear Energy Launch Pad, a Department of Energy–led program that integrates reactor and fuel facility authorization, testing, and deployment support for private nuclear developers.
The Launch Pad emerged from the Reactor Pilot Program and Fuel Line Pilot Program.
According to INL, projects selected include reactor development and nuclear fuel cycle advancements, including fabrication, enrichment, and conversion technologies.

A TRF (Tritium Removal Facility) will be constructed at Wolsong Nuclear Generating station to remove the tritium from heavy water. Titanium sponge has been selected as suitable material for tritium product immobilization. This paper is a summary of the experimental results conducted for the various properties of the reaction between titanium sponge and hydrogen isotopes. The conditions for activation, hydriding and dehydriding were investigated. The factors such as initial gas pressure and the helium content in the gas stream influencing the hydriding rate of the bed were examined.
