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.

The composite packing with the hydrophobic platinum catalyst for the isotope exchange reaction in H2O-H2 system was improved to be appreciably active. Therefore, it bacame realistic to design a process for tritium recovery by the dual-temperature exchange method. The separation performance of dual-temperature 5-stage cascade (S3-E2) was simulated. The process was desinged to be operated under the condition of P = 0.1 MPa, TH = 70 °C, TC = 15∼20 °C. The cascade could attain tritium recovery ratio of 0.99 and enriching ratio larger than 103.
