Reflections on How Wheat Flour Lipids Impact the Viscoelastic Properties of Gluten Proteins

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Endogenous wheat flour lipids are known to play an important role in baked product quality, even though they constitute a minor fraction of wheat flour composition. They interact with gluten proteins throughout the different stages of dough processing and therefore contribute to specific quality traits in baked products.

Impact of trapping on tritium self-sufficiency and tritium inventories in fusion power plant fuel cycles

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The dynamic analysis of fusion power plant (FPP) fuel cycles highlights the challenge of achieving tritium self-sufficiency in future FPPs. While state-of-the-art fuel cycle models offer valuable insights into the necessary design parameters for ...

Neutronic investigation of waste transmutation option without partitioning and transmutation in a fusion-fission hybrid system

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2018
A feasibility of reusing option of spent nuclear fuel in a fusion-fission hybrid system without partitioning was checked as an alternative option of pyro-processing with critical reactor system. Neutronic study was performed with MCNP 6.1 for this option,

Respatializing Toxic Harm: The Case Against Sacrifice Zones

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Describing heavily polluted areas as “sacrifice zones” has become commonplace in recent decades, as diverse groups resist their unwitting exposure to destructive and toxic industrial, municipal, and military activities. However, pollutants tend to seep, spill, leak, and drift from wherever they are concentrated, defying any notion of physical ...

Low technology high tritium breeding blanket concept [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The main function of this low technology blanket is to produce the necessary tritium for INTOR operation with minimum first wall coverage. The INTOR first wall, blanket, and shield are constrained by the dimensions of the reference design and the ...

Decommissioning Cost Estimate for the Ghana Research Reactor‐1 Facility Using the CERREX‐D2 Software

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The Ghana Research Reactor‐1 facility would certainly be decommissioned, either at the end of its life or by a decision to discontinue its operation. In planning for GHARR‐1’s eventual decommissioning, estimating the overall decommissioning cost is a major activity that needs to be undertaken to support budgeting and decision‐making for the project. To

Decommissioning of a Nuclear Facility With Sodium‐Cooled Fast Reactor as a Final Stage of Its Life Cycle: Overview of Current Projects

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The nuclear power industry preferably aims to a closed nuclear fuel cycle and a transition to a two‐component structure based on the joint operation of thermal and fast neutron reactors. This approach makes it possible to significantly reduce the volume of radioactive waste and increase the efficiency of using uranium fuel. Sodium fast neutron reactors

Investigation of Wall Effect on Packing Structures and Purge Gas Flow Characteristics in Pebble Beds for Fusion Blanket by Combining Discrete Element Method and Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulation

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In a tritium-breeding blanket of a fusion reaction, helium, used as a tritium-purging gas, will purge the tritium breeder pebble beds to extract the tritium in blanket. The purge gas flow characteristics will affect the tritium extraction efficiency. The

Neutronics Design of Tritium Breeding Blanket for Fusion Experimental Reactor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 1983
Detailed neutronics analysis on a tokamak fusion experimental reactor was performed. Neutronics responses of components in the vacuum vessel of a swimming pool type reactor were calculated by Monte Carlo method considering toroidal geometry, asymmetrical torus cross section, and neutron source distribution in plasma.

Transmuting the Arid: Fission‐Powered Visions—Unlocking Ghana’s Aquatic Destiny Through Nuclear Desalination

open access: yesScience and Technology of Nuclear Installations, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Water scarcity poses a mounting constraint on Ghana’s socioeconomic development, intensified by climate‐driven hydrological variability, rapid urbanization, and industrial expansion. This study presents a Ghana‐specific techno‐economic and policy‐integrated assessment of nuclear‐powered seawater desalination, moving beyond generic applications of ...
