The Nuclear Innovation and Research Office (NIRO) and Nuclear Innovation Research Advisory Board (NIRAB) released The UK Civil Nuclear R&D Landscape Review, providing an in-depth analysis of the civil nuclear R&D landscape during the period of 2022-2023. The review was carried out through investigating four key lenses: nuclear policy, nuclear funding, nuclear staffing and skills and access to research facilities. This article provides a summary of the key findings and actions needed to maintain the current momentum of developing R&D programmes and to enable successful delivery of newly confirmed build programmes.
Abstract
The generation of composite materials by combining natural clinoptilolite and BaSO4 to remove 137Cs and 90Sr simultaneously. Improvement solid/liquid separation degree with the help of fast sedimentation of composite coagulants for waste volume reduction, which facilitates waste encapsulation for safe long-term waste management. The process intensification of the proposed method by using an agitated tubular reactor for enhanced ion removal while reducing plant footprint, cost and waste generation.
