The manufacture of chemicals in microstructured reactors (MSR) has become recently a new branch of chemical reaction engineering focusing on process intensification and safety. MSR have an equivalent hydraulic diameter up to a few hundreds of micrometers a ...
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 ...
The Paul Scherrer Institute used to be very active in fuel fabrication R and D using the internal gelation process, which is a promising production method for spherical nuclear fuel. Such fuel kernels can be directly packed in a cylindrical cladding (a sph ...
During the past ten years, different independent factors, such as the rapidly increasing worldwide demand in energy, societal concerns about greenhouse gas emissions, and the high and volatile prices for fossil fuels, have contributed to the renewed intere ...
We use a new in-house, large area and automated deposition system: the usable deposition area is 410 × 520 mm with RF-frequency of 40 MHz. We deposit intrinsic a-Si:H layer on flat p-type or n-type c-Si wafers after performing an HF dip. The overall recomb ...
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 ...
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 ...
The growth of the porosity in high-burnup fuel is of particular interest when considering the effect of fission gas retention within the high-burnup structure (HBS). A mechanistic model of porosity growth under annealing conditions for light water reactor ...
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 ...
The present paper is related to the design and neutronic characterization of the principal control assembly system for the reference large (2400 MWth) Generation IV gas-cooled fast reactor (GFR), which makes use of ceramic-ceramic (CERCER) plate-type fuel- ...
