Fraunhofer IWS and Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics Develop Innovative Barrier Coatings for Fusion Power Plants (Dresden/Garching, 06/24/2025) Tritium fuels nuclear fusion and counts among the ...
Scientists traced the path of groundwater in the Rocky Mountains, from snowpack to faucet, and found the true length of the ...
The New Mexico Environment Department is raising the bar on Los Alamos National Laboratory’s plan to vent tritium waste. Before the department approves or denies the lab’s request to vent four flanged ...
Several advanced nuclear technologies require lithium-6 (Li-6) and lithium-7 (Li-7), products of lithium isotope separation (or enrichment), achieved through methods such as the column exchange (COLEX ...
NMED adds conditions Los Alamos National Laboratory will need to meet for the state to sign off on its tritium venting ...
Helium-3 (³He) may be a rare isotope, but it can play an outsized role in environmental monitoring and radiation detection technologies.  Much recent attention has focused on high-precision ...
The hydrogen isotope called tritium is one of the lower-energy and shorter-lived radioactive materials; NRC reports say that humans usually excrete tritium within 10 days of exposure.
On Tuesday, the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes made a play worthy of their namesakes from The Simpsons.. The sequence began innocently enough. With two outs and the bases loaded in the sixth inning ...

The Isotope Separation System will form part of UKAEA's Hydrogen-3 Advanced Technology (H3AT) facility, a world-first tritium fuel cycle research facility to include a prototype-scale process plant ...
The isotope separation methods used today are extremely energy-intensive and inefficient. It has been known for almost 15 years that porous metal-organic frameworks can, in principle, be used to ...
