The Supercritical-Water-Cooled Reactor (SCWR) is the Generation IV reactor concept most closely related to current light water reactors (LWRs). The SCWR builds on the vast experience with today's LWRs and supercritical coal-fired power plants. Water at sup ...
Until about the year 2030, current-day nuclear power plants (NPPs) will be replaced by so-called Gen-III or Gen-III+ units, which are mainly based on light water reactor technology. The principal new features are increased safety and improved economical ef ...
The objective of this thesis is the development of a compact reactor for continuous three-phase reactions in single-pass configurations. The design is based on a bubble column reactor staged with layers of catalytic material. To make the reactor suitable f ...
The possibility to increase the performance (productivity or selectivity) of a chemical reactor by using periodic variations of reaction parameters (e.g. reactant concentration or temperature) has been theoretically envisaged since the beginning of the 70t ...
Two types of stainless steel microstructured reactors for catalytic gas-phase reactions have been developed and characterized with respect to their thermal behaviour under non-stationary temperature conditions. One of the reactors used (FTC-I) allowed peri ...
Liquid-liquid biphasic reactions play an important role in the chemical and pharmaceutical Industries The liquid-liquid slug flow capillary microreactor offers considerable potential benefits over the conventional liquid-liquid contactors Though the hydrod ...
The PhD thesis deals with the optimization of the reaction calorimetry technique to monitor chemical reactions in supercritical fluids. The aim is to develop this thermal analysis technique to monitor the heat released by a chemical reaction in a high pres ...
A study comparing several technical options for producing Fischer-Tropsch fuel by biomass gasification has been performed. Each step of the process has been simulated using ProsimPlus, a process simulation software: gasification, gas cleaning, FT synthesis ...
Gas cooling in nuclear power plants (NPPs) has a long history, the corresponding reactor types developed in France, the UK and the US having been thermal neutron-spectrum systems using graphite as the moderator. The majority of NPPs worldwide, however, are ...
This letter extends the work performed at Argonne National Laboratory on the QUADRISO fuel particles concept for High Temperature Reactors. Different configurations of the QUADRISO fuel particles concept are proposed and examined. The concept of QUADRISO f ...
