$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.

With a statistically designed experiment, it is demonstrated that gravimetric determinations of the oxygen-to-metal ratio of (U,Pu)O2 depend strongly on the day of analysis, slightly on the particular sintering run, and not detectably on position in either the sintering furnace or the analysis furnace. The average oxygen-to-metal ratio of a single sintering run can be determined to a precision of ±0.005 at the 95% confidence level.
