SALT || Reactor Safety & InorgAnic Chemistry of Light Elements at High Temperature
We apply our research to fluoride-salt-cooled high-temperature reactors (FHRs) and Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs), high-temperature gas cooled reactors (HTGRs), and tritium-breeding blankets for fusion systems. Our research includes safety analysis, licensing and design of nuclear reactors, and sometimes extends to engineering ethics.
