NRC grants license for TRISO-X fuel manufacturing using HALEU
The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has granted X-energy subsidiary TRISO-X a special nuclear material license for high-assay low-enriched uranium fuel fabrication. The license applies to TRISO-X’s first two planned commercial facilities, known as TX-1 and TX-2, for an initial 40-year period. The facilities are set to be the first new nuclear fuel fabrication plants licensed by the NRC in more than 50 years.

This paper presents a novel technique using a shunt active power filter (SAPF) control strategy to reduce the harmonics generated by the power converter. A three-phase SAPF using the Takagi Sugeno (TS) fuzzy technique is used to reduce current distortion. The proposed TS fuzzy controller is a suitable candidate using SAPF techniques. In order to realize an acceptable distortion limit, TS fuzzy control uses SAPF to realize the performance of the system. The simulation results validate the proposed fuzzy control strategy by a Matlab/Simulink model.
