ARPA-E awards $38M to 12 projects leading used nuclear fuel recycling initiative

Green Car Congress

Upon discharge from a nuclear reactor, the UNF is initially stored in steel-lined concrete pools surrounded by water. Most of the nation’s used fuel is stored at more than 70 reactor sites across the country. It is later removed from the pools and placed into dry storage casks with protective shielding. Award amount: $2,796,545).

General Atomics launches bid for DOE small modular reactor program with EM2

Green Car Congress

Only unusable fission products would be removed and stored. Idaho National Laboratory offers capabilities to test the new EM 2 fuel system. This material is reused as the starter for a second generation of EM 2 s, without conventional reprocessing. There is no separation of individual heavy metals required and no enrichment needed.
