$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 variation of the postirradiation creep-rupture properties with irradiation temperature has been evaluated for air- and vacuum-melted Hastelloy-N. The air-melted material was high in silicon and formed a stable carbide of the M6C type. The properties of this material were not dependent upon the irradiation temperature over the range studied. The vacuum-melted alloys formed a M2C-type carbide whose size and morphology depended markedly upon the irradiation temperature. When the carbides were finely dispersed by irradiation at about 650°C, the postirradiation properties were equivalent to those of the air-melted material. Irradiation at about 760°C resulted in coarser dispersions of the M2C carbide and inferior postirradiation properties.
