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 ...
NPL, PTB, IRMM and IRSN are involved, within a scientific cooperation, in a comprehensive study aimed at developing reference low-energy monoenergetic neutron fields. This paper will explain the impor- tance of such developments, highlighted by the over re ...
Microreactor technology, an important method of process intensification, offers numerous potential benefits for the process industries. Fluid–fluid reactions with mass transfer limitations have already been advantageously carried out in small-scale geometr ...
Microstructured reactors are known to provide high heat and mass transfer rates for liquid–liquid twophase systems when used as a single channel. For industrial scale production, scale-up of microstructured reactors is essential to achieve throughput in th ...
Advanced analytical techniques have been used to characterize nuclear materials at the Paul Scherrer Institute during the last decade. The analysed materials ranged from reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels, Zircaloy claddings to fuel samples. The processe ...
Nowadays, control systems are involved in nearly all aspects of our lives. They are all around us, but their presence is not always really apparent. They are in our kitchens, in our DVD-players, computers and our cars. They are found in elevators, ships, a ...
This chapter is a summary of recent advances in microreactors, which have become increasingly important in process development and chemical research. Microstructured chemical reactors are characterized by dimensions in the submillimeter range and, thus. su ...
A new measurement technique has been developed to determine fission rates in burnt fuel following re-irradiation in a zero-power research reactor The development has been made in the frame of the LIFE@PROTEUS program at the Paul Scherrer Institute which ai ...
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 ...
Several metallic components of pressurized water reactors (PWR) used in nuclear power plants are exposed to the combined degradation by friction and corrosion (tribocorrosion). In PWR, corrosion arises from the water pressurized at 150 bars and maintained ...
