GREENCDT Sequestration of metals from legacy ponds using artificial corals
In the 1970’s work was stated to “grow” artificial corals in order to remediate damage to natural systems. The method was to use an electrochemical process to deposit a hard ceramic material from the metals and anions present in sea water. Read more
GREENCDT Proving the process of spent fuel drying
This project supports the future stewardship for spent AGR fuel. The NDA strategy is to consolidate all spent AGR fuel in a single pond at the THORP facility at the Sellafield site for interim storage, pending a future decision on their disposition route. Read more
GREENCDT Direct capture of radioactive iodine on solid adsorbents
We are looking for an enthusiastic graduate with 1st class honours or a 2:1 in an Engineering, Materials Science or related discipline, for a 4-year funded joint PhD, as part of the Doctoral Training Centre in Growing skills for Reliable Economic Energy from Nuclear (GREEN CDT). Read more
GREENCDT The Nuclear Furnace
As atmospheric CO. 2. concentrations continue to push past the boundaries of caution, imminent solutions are needed to address the critical nature of climate change and its impacts on the global community. Read more
GREENCDT Synthesis and characterisation of mixed actinide oxalates for the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuels
The COEX (co-extraction of uranium and plutonium) process for reprocessing of spent nuclear fuels involves coprecipitation of plutonium(III) and uranium(IV) oxalates via the reaction between Pu/U nitrates and oxalic acid. Read more
GREENCDT Developing a digital twin for validation of packing optimisers used for nuclear decommissioning
When sorting and packing nuclear waste items, the current practice typically involves human operators wearing full PPEs and/or remotely controlled robotic arms. Read more
GREENCDT Functional thin film coatings design and optimisation based on the wear and corrosion mechanisms for the next generation nuclear reactors
Are you an enthusiastic graduate with an interest in material, tribology and corrosion in the nuclear industry? Do you wish to join the Nuclear Energy… Read more
GREENCDT Prediction of Non-Spherical Particle Interaction and Agglomeration in Pipe Flows for Nuclear Waste Management Applications
In nuclear waste processing, the management of multiphase sludge waste is critical to on-going operations which aim to transport aggregated waste to interim storage facilities. Read more
GREENCDT Waste Hydrogen Explosion Management in Decommissioning Nuclear Facilities
The long term storage of spent fuel, raw waste, final products and decommissioning provide scenarios across the NDA estate where hydrogen is a significant concern. Read more
GREENCDT Soil-Capacitive Deionization (S-CDI): Mitigating Radionuclide Spread in Groundwater Flows
The uncontrolled release of radionuclides into the environment is often a consequence of an incident or from degrading/aging nuclear facilities. Read more
