Swiss nuclear power and the case for long-term operation
Designed for 40 years but built to last far longer, Switzerland’s nuclear power plants have all entered long-term operation. Yet age alone says little about safety or performance. Through continuous upgrades, strict regulatory oversight, and extensive aging management, the country’s reactors are being prepared for decades of continued operation, in line with international practice.

A simple apparatus is used for the separation of the components of a mixture of CO, H2, and CH4. The separation of CO and CH4 by selective oxidation with CuO was studied with 14CH4. The 13C isotope fractionation during the oxidation of CO with I2O5 and with CuO, and during the elevated temperature oxidation of CH4 with CuO, and the tritium fraction during the oxidation of tritiated hydrogen with CuO are reported.
