Wide range of possibilities for thermochemical processes – We use high-temperature reactors to demonstrate processes in which chemical reactions take place at particularly high temperatures. To do ...

Many Member States are interested in and developing advanced High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactors (HTGRs) that use helium as a coolant. Such reactors can achieve very high fuel utilization rates and ...

Recent studies have focused on optimizing the iodine-sulfur cycle and integrating it with very high-temperature gas-cooled reactors (VHTRs) to enhance hydrogen production. For instance ...

Fusion reactors require very high temperatures — many times hotter than the sun — because they have to operate at much lower pressures than where fusion naturally takes place inside the cores ...

Even so MSRs and similar high-temperature reactors are likely to become a common sight over the next years, with larger reactor types on the scale of traditional LWRs (1+ GWe) an interesting ...

Very high temperatures of over 100 million degrees Celsius are required to overcome the repulsion of the nuclei. The conditions are generated in a ring-shaped reactor chamber, the tokamak ...

Plasma must be kept at very high temperatures with the support of external heating systems and confined by an external magnetic field. Every shift or change of the working configuration in the reactor ...

While researchers have used levitators to melt materials at very high temperatures before ... when using mixed oxide fuels in future nuclear reactors. Mark Williamson, the director of Argonne ...
