Smarter waste strategies: Helping deliver on the promise of advanced nuclear
At COP28, held in Dubai in 2023, a clear consensus emerged: Nuclear energy must be a cornerstone of the global clean energy transition. With electricity demand projected to soar as we decarbonize not just power but also industry, transport, and heat, the case for new nuclear is compelling. More than 20 countries committed to tripling global nuclear capacity by 2050. In the United States alone, the Department of Energy forecasts that the country’s current nuclear capacity could more than triple, adding 200 GW of new nuclear to the existing 95 GW by mid-century.

Implantation-driven permeation (IDP) behavior of deuterium implanted with low energy (100–1800 eV) into 304 stainless steel has been studied. The experimental results showed that steady state permeation fluxes of deuterium through 304 SS decreased significantly with increasing the D+ ion from 100 through 1000 eV, while those above 1000 eV little depended on the energy. The energy dependence of the permeation flux observed would be attributed to change of the rate-determining regime of the permeation process depending on the incident ion energy.
