ANS panel discussion looks at nuclear’s place in maritime, energy, medicine, space
The applications of nuclear energy extend beyond providing power to the electrical grid. Advanced nuclear technologies may soon have new applications in oil and gas facilities, in hospitals and clinics, on the open seas, and on the moon.
A June 1 executive session, “How Nuclear Technologies will Shape the Future Energy Economy,” at the American Nuclear Society’s Annual Conference allowed experts have an open discussion on the future of nuclear advancements in multiple sectors.

At 1273 K, the principal products in the reaction of uranium carbides with Cr-Fe-Ni alloys are UNiC2 and the Laves phase U(Fe,Ni,Cr)2. At 973 K, the principal products are UNi5 and (Cr, Fe)7C3. At the lower temperature, reaction with uranium monocarbide is limited by the rate of formation of UNi5. Liquid formation was observed in the UC Type 316 stainless system at 1292 ± 8 K and at 1351 ± 12 K in the UC Inconel 718 system.
