DOE announces $5.9M for university research
The Department of Energy has continued to roll out announcements of Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP) awards for fiscal year 2025. Last week, the agency announced the recipients of 11 Consolidated Innovative Nuclear Research Phase II Continuation (CINR II) awards, totaling $5.9 million.
University-led teams with current CINR R&D and Integrated Research Project awards are eligible to apply for CINR II awards, which provide opportunities for teams that have performed high-quality work through NEUP-funded projects to propose new projects that complement and enhance ongoing NEUP research.
Uranium Chemistry Tutorial
January 19, 2021|10:30AM–12:00PM (11:30AM–1:00PM EST)
Available to 2020 ANS Virtual Winter Meeting Attendees
ANS Members, please log in to watch this webinar.
This is part seven of a nine-part tutorial series exclusively available to 2020 ANS Winter Meeting attendees.
The 1978 accidental nuclear criticality incident at the Idaho Chemical Processing Facility will be reviewed. The chemistry failure that led to a buildup of enriched uranium that exceeded safety limits will be explained and causes discussed.
Uranium Processing Chemistry for Large Scale Reprocessing is a suggested prerequisite for understanding this incident.
