Argonne’s METL gears up to test more sodium fast reactor components
Argonne National Laboratory has successfully swapped out an aging cold trap in the sodium test loop called METL (Mechanisms Engineering Test Loop), the Department of Energy announced April 23. The upgrade is the first of its kind in the United States in more than 30 years, according to the DOE, and will help test components and operations for the sodium-cooled fast reactors being developed now.
Nuclear Science Week
October 8, 2020|11:00–11:30AM (12:00–12:30PM EDT)
Available to All Users
The Department of Energy is engaging with students at all levels to celebrate Nuclear Science Week 2020 (Oct. 19-23). The Office of Nuclear Energy has exciting plans in store for educators and students, from K-12 through university and STEM professionals. From new nuclear energy curriculum, launched with our partners at the American Nuclear Society and Discovery Education, to Nuclear Tech Connect which will host conversations on carbon-free energy and technology innovation, the webinar will showcase various opportunities to get involved. Join us for an interactive conversation about how you can be a part of Nuclear Science Week.
