Densification-Induced Structure Changes in Basolite MOFs: Effect on Low-Pressure CH4 Adsorption
Metal-organic frameworks’ (MOFs) adsorption potential is significantly reduced by turning the original powder into pellets or granules, a mandatory step for their use at industrial scale.

Hydraulic transient simulation of primary cooling circuit in Egyptian second research reactor
Hydraulic transient is a flow situation where the velocity of the flow and the pressure change rapidly with time in pipes networks filled with fluid. Water hammer is one of the consequences that may occur accidentally in the reactors cooling system.

Fluidized bed membrane reactors
Fluidized bed membrane reactors are an extension or an improvement of a packed bed membrane reactor. The fluidized bed configuration allows a more uniform temperature due to the movement of particles even for very exothermic reactions and decreased ...

Dynamical approach to isotopic-distribution of fission fragments from actinide nuclei
Measurements of the isotope distribution of fission fragments, often denoted as the primary fission yield (pre-neutron yield) or independent fission yield (post-neutron yield) are still challenging at low excitation energies, so that it is important to ...

Decay heat power of spent nuclear fuel of power reactors with high burnup at long-term storage
Decay heat power of actinides and fission products from spent nuclear fuel of power VVER-1000 type reactors at long-term storage is calculated. Two modes of storage are considered: mode in which single portion of actinides or fission products is loaded ...
