Launching into tomorrow: NRIC guides new era of research and deployment
In June 2025, the Department of Energy announced the Reactor Pilot Program, an authorization pathway that allowed reactor developers to partner with the DOE to get first-of-a-kind (FOAK) reactors built and tested. Soon after, the DOE rolled out a complementary Fuel Line Pilot Program, which aimed to fast-track fuel projects. In all, 20 projects were accepted into the new programs.

A numerical analysis has been performed to study the mass transfer characteristics of the chemical addition system for a nuclear power plant. The transient concentration profile of the chemical additives and the required time to inject the additives from the chemical injection tank have been investigated using a low Reynolds number turbulence model. Calculations were also performed with a disk placed at various locations along the centerline of the chemical injection tank to investigate the amount of reduction in injection time and to propose an optimal design of the chemical injection tank.
