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.

Experiments were performed to obtain detailed adsorption and desorption characteristics of tritium (HT) by Cryogenic Molecular Sieve Bed (CMSB) in liquid nitrogen temperature under the simulated Breeding Blanket Interface (BBI) condition. Computer simulation analyses gave the values of separation factor and mass transfer coefficient of HT in H2, which are very important basic parameters for the optimum design of CMSB process in BBI.
