Recent Progress in Functional Nanomaterials towards the Storage, Separation, and Removal of Tritium
Advanced Materials, Volume 35, Issue 48, November 28, 2023., 2023 Tritium is a prime fuel to generate fusion power, but its storage and separation in pure form are major challenges in nuclear industries. This review discusses recent progress and main research trends in hydrogen isotope storage and separation while emphasizing tritium using metal hydrides, nanoporous zeolites, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and 2‐

Materials and Corrosion, Volume 74, Issue 8, Page 1246-1255, August 2023., 2023 This review paper provides insights into the corrosion mechanism of nickel‐based alloys in aqueous high‐temperature environments. A good knowledge of the effect of alloying elements such as chromium, molybdenum (+tungsten), and copper on the corrosion and oxide formation of nickel‐based alloys is explored in this paper. Abstract Nickel‐based alloys are

Comparative analysis of occupational radiation doses when decommissioning nuclear power plants
Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 10, Issue 12, Page 4358-4365, December 2022., 2022 Radiation doses from precedent decommissioning nuclear power plants worldwide are compared with radiation doses estimated from Kori 1, the first decommissioning‐planned reactor in Korea, to determine dose reduction measures that can achieve radiation exposure that is as low as reasonably achievable to decommissioning workers. Abstract Kori 1, the first

Uranium Recovery from Phosphates for Self‐Sufficient Nuclear Power in the Eastern Mediterranean
Science and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Production of phosphate fertilizers (PF), without uranium recovery, amounts to dispersing uranium compounds on agricultural fields. These compounds are naturally hidden in phosphate rock deposits prior to processing. Such a dispersion is a cumulative environmental damage, that may become rather catastrophic in few hundred years, under the current rates
