Advanced Functional Membrane Testing for Noble Gas Management in a Molten Salt Reactor, Elysium Industries

The objective of this project is to evaluate a metalorganic framework (MOF) for continuous separation of Xe and Kr from the off-gas in the FCMSR in order to optimize the noble gas management of the FC-MSR and chemical processes for fuel salt production and conditioning and support the safety and licensing bases.

Lead-Bismuth Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Licensing Development; Methodology for Meeting Containment System Principal Design Criteria for Heavy Metal Fast Reactor systems, Columbia Basin Consulting Group

The objective of this project was to review Columbia Basin Consulting Group (CBCG)’s design concept for a leadbismuth-cooled fast reactor and thereafter to determine how the design might benefit from the functional containment concept, which allows the designer to take credit for a sequence of barriers to contain or confine radionuclides.
