The rise and fall of the fast breeder reactor technology in the UK: between engineering “dreams” and economic “realities”? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This report explores the evolution of the fast breeder nuclear reactor programmes in the UK, from the period of great promises and expectations in the 1950s and 1960s towards their progressive abandonment in the 1980s and 1990s.

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Flow Chemistry Meets Green Solvents: Telescoped Synthesis of Triazolyl Phosphoramidates and Phosphinamides in γ‐Valerolactone

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
A telescoped three‐step continuous flow process enables the synthesis of organophosphorus 1,2,3‐triazoles in the biomass‐derived solvent γ‐valerolactone (GVL). The sequence integrates N‐phosphorylation, azidation, and Cu(I)‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), followed by in‐line copper removal, giving diverse triazoles in good to high overall
