Westinghouse, Nordion, and PSEG team up to produce Co‑60 in the United States
This past January, Westinghouse Electric Company, Nordion, and PSEG Nuclear formalized agreements to implement newly developed cobalt-60 production technology at Units 1 and 2 of PSEG’s Salem nuclear power plant in New Jersey, with the Co-60 to be supplied to Nordion. Through an ongoing joint initiative, the companies aim to harness U.S. pressurized water reactors to produce a key medical isotope and build the first commercial-scale Co-60 production platform in the United States.

A method for the calculation of the neutron flux in one-group P3 approximation in a reactor polycell with multizone annular clusters is presented. The cluster central zone contains multizone fuel rods. The rod and cluster neutron fluxes are assumed to be azimuthally symmetrical. Four moments in the scattering function are taken into account. The CLUST code has been developed for computing the neutron fluxes in a reactor polycell. Its numerical results are compared with those of the other codes and appear to be in good agreement with them.
