Gov. Sherrill signs bill to begin nuclear procurement in N.J.
On July 13, New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill signed the Power NJ Act, a bill that directs the state’s Board of Public Utilities (BPU), in collaboration with the state’s Economic Development Authority, to establish an “advanced nuclear energy procurement program.”

A Concept design for large-scale hydrogen ISS based on a single Pd alloy membrane separator cascade has been presented. Separators to investigate the feasibility of the Pd membrane separator cascade concept have been designed and the separation performance of the separators is given. Results show that the separation factors, which are between 1.4 and 1.8 at the operation temperature, are large enough for a practical separation system design. Estimation results indicate that a 2.0m2 Pd membrane is needed for a 20mol/h and 12 stages batch ISS, and an approximately 50m2 Pd membrane is needed for a 200mol/h and 26 stages ISS. It is clear that the separator cascade concept is both reasonable and practicable for large-scale hydrogen isotope separation.
