  • On the production of Low Enriched Uranium (LEU) fuels at CERCA

    Rue d’Egmont 11 1000 Brussels, Belgium

    About the lecture   CERCA, division of Framatome, is working in the field of research reactors fuel manufacturing and irradiation targets manufacturing. CERCA activities include fabrication of uranium-based medical-use targets. Framatome proposes a comprehensive solution for the supply of activation targets for irradiation reactors. This evening lecture aims at giving an overview on CERCA business ... Read more

  • Radiopharmaceuticals: radionuclides and vectors

    Rue d’Egmont 11 1000 Brussels, Belgium

    Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive pharmaceuticals for diagnostic or therapeutic use and typically consist of a radionuclide and a vector molecule. Radionuclides for diagnostic use typically have a short half-life and emit gamma rays that can be detected outside of the body using single photon tomography (SPECT) or positron emission tomography (PET) camera’s that generate an image ...

  • Cybersecurity in the nuclear industry

    Rue d’Egmont 11 1000 Brussels, Belgium

    About the lecture Cybersecurity is a critical issue for the nuclear industry and its entire ecosystem. Whether it involves security vulnerabilities, attacks targeting sovereign activities, or regulatory compliance obligations, Framatome strengthen the cybersecurity posture of nuclear operators and critical industries. We believe that security challenges cannot be addressed with a single measure, in a single location, ... Read more

  • Accident Tolerant Fuels (ATF) for present operating reactors

    Rue d’Egmont 11 1000 Brussels, Belgium

    All light water reactors (LWRs) around the world today are using fuel systems comprised of uranium oxide (UO2) within a zirconium-based alloy cladding. Some reactors use uranium-plutonium oxide fuels, which are also known as mixed oxide (MOX) fuels. The oxide fuel-zircaloy system has been optimised over many decades and performs very well under normal operating ... Read more

  • Nuclear fuel bearing minor actinides for the minimization of long-term radiotoxicity of high-level waste

    Rue d’Egmont 11 1000 Brussels, Belgium

      At the end of the irradiation in a nuclear reactor, the fuel has undergone significant transformations with respect to its initial state. The accumulation of radiation damage due to neutron irradiation and to the consequences of fission and nuclear decay processes, combined with the effects of temperature and power gradients experienced by the fuel, ...

  • Mox Fuel For Fast Reactors : high level of flexibility towards plutonium management and minor actinide transmutation

    All Within the GENERATION IV initiative, several reactors have been selected : sodium fast reactor SFR, lead or lead-bismuth fast reactor LFR, advanced driver system ADS, gas fast reactor GFR, very high temperature reactor VHTR and molten salt reactor MSR. Innovative fuels have been selected especially for the fast neutron reactor (SFR, LFR and GFR) ... Read more
