2025: The year in nuclear
As Nuclear News has done since 2022, we have compiled a review of the nuclear news that filled headlines and sparked conversations in the year just completed. Departing from the chronological format of years past, we open with the most impactful news of 2025: a survey of actions and orders of the Trump administration that are reshaping nuclear research, development, deployment, and commercialization. We then highlight some of the top news in nuclear restarts, new reactor testing programs, the fuel supply chain and broader fuel cycle, and more.

An advanced gas chromatographic concept based on temperature programming was developed by Ontario Hydro Technologies in cooperation with Southwest Institute of Nuclear Physics and Chemistry, China. By selecting the optimum temperature profile, the degree of separation of the components and throughput of the column can be maximized. This process represents a significant reduction in size, complexity and carrier gas consumption compared to conventional gas chromatographic processes. A prototype system suitable for use in tritium laboratories was built by Spectrum Engineering Corporation. Gas mixtures of equimolar hydrogen (H) and deuterium (D) with trace quantities of tritium (T) were separated in the system. Equipment used in this system and experimental results is presented in this paper.
