GERA receives a second National Reactor Innovation Center grant to develop processes for using nuclear waste in the ACE Engine
GERA receives a second Idaho National Laboratory (INL) National Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC) grant to work with Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne) and develop processes for recovering the actinides from light-water reactor spent nuclear fuel (SNF) for eventual use as nuclear fuel in the ACE Engine advanced reactor concept. Argonne maintains extensive expertise in developing processes based on solvent extraction to recover key elements from many forms of reactor SNF. The scope of work includes both actinide recovery from various waste forms and actinide preparation for use in the ACE Engine.
