Nuclear Energy Strategy announced at CNA2026
At the Canadian Nuclear Association Conference (CNA2026) in Ottawa, Ontario, on April 29, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Tim Hodgson announced that Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is developing a new Nuclear Energy Strategy for the country. The strategy, which is slated to be released by the end of this year, will be based on four objectives: 1) enabling new nuclear builds across Canada, 2) being a global supplier and exporter of nuclear technology and services, 3) expanding uranium production and nuclear fuel opportunities, and 4) developing new Canadian nuclear innovations, including in both fission and fusion technologies.

Data obtained from three systems are presented and discussed in reference to the problem of radioactive carry-over in boiling reactors. Measurements of droplet carry-over have been made on a small scale laboratory boiling test unit and on a 600-psia loop under high purity water conditions using Cs137 tracer. Measurements have also been made on the Borax-III boiling reactor under actual operating conditions. Activation products present in the steam and condensate served as an indication of the radioactive carry-over. Analysis of the decay curves of the samples provided a means of differentiating activities carried as droplets from volatile radioactive carry-over.
