$40M investment to spur new nuclear developments in Idaho and Wyoming
On Monday, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that its Economic Development Administration (EDA) intends to award $31 million to the Intermountain-West Nuclear Energy Corridor (INEC) Tech Hub. The Idaho Advanced Energy Consortium (IAEC), the group that leads the INEC Tech Hub, subsequently announced that matching donations from its stakeholder partners will bring the total investment up to $40 million.

The previously reported enhanced volatility of tellurium dioxide due to water vapor has been confirmed over the temperature range 825 to 970°K through vapor pressure measurements with a mass transport apparatus. Investigations of the temperature dependence of the characteristic equilibrium constant yield a value of 30.4 kcal/ mole for the heat of the (assumed) reaction TeO2(s) + H2O(g) = TeO(OH)2(g). Attempts to identify the gaseous hydroxide species through mass spectrometry were unsuccessful. Mass spectrometer studies of TeO2 vapor, however, indicate ∼20% dimer formation within the temperature range 920 to 1050°K.
