SUMMARY:The Curious Incident of the (Robot) Dog in the Nuclear Environment
DESCRIPTION:Institute of Physics Materials and Characterisation Group Christmas Lecture\nIt is a generally well accepted argument that when it comes to surveying high activity nuclear facilities\, robots offer a potentially safer and preferable solution to using human beings. In this IOP seminar we will tell the tale of why walking robots offer an eye catching but also technically sensible approach for surveying certain legacy nuclear facilities\, culminating with ground-breaking deployments inside the Chernobyl New Safe Confinement (NSC) building. \nSpeaker - Professor Tom Scott\n \nProfessor Tom Scott is Director of the Interface Analysis Centre (IAC) at the University of Bristol\, and lead for the newly established National Nuclear User Facility for Hot Robotics. \nHe is also a Royal Academy of Engineering Professorial Research Fellow co-funded by the AWE\, Director of the South West Nuclear Hub and lectures in both the School of Physics and the School of Earth Sciences at Bristol. \nHis research expertise is around the detection and characterisation of nuclear materials\, to aid prediction of their behaviour in engineered and environmental scenarios. This includes a specific strand of activity relating to nuclear robotics and sensors. He works closely with the nuclear industry in the UK and overseas to deliver characterisation and decontamination solutions for nuclear decommissioning. \nRegistration\nThe event is open to all and free to attend\, but pre-registration is required via the Institute of Physics website. \n[button link="https://www.iopconferences.org/iop/frontend/reg/thome.csp?pageID=1009586&eventID=1618&language=1&CSPCHD=000001000000cr4r95XQUIDOqda7nWUJayiQE82sZ9QqCqUXPu" bg_color="#806ab7" border="#806ab7" window="yes"]Event page[/button]

SUMMARY:The Saga of UK Radioactive Waste Disposal
DESCRIPTION:The Western Regional Group is pleased to welcome Dr. Ian Crossland nuclear specialist with more than 50 years’ experience of the nuclear industry. For the past thirty years he has specialised in radioactive waste management with a particular interest in disposal. He has first-hand experience of the roller-coaster ride produced by the many swings of UK policy in this area. \n \nThe UK has a small mountain of radioactive waste that is stored at many locations around the country. This is the legacy of almost 100 years’ exploitation of nuclear technology in research\, medicine\, weapons and electricity production. Some of this waste will remain dangerous for millennia. Even if we were to stop\nproducing it\, the legacy of past years would still need to be safely managed to prevent its being a danger to the public. But what to do? Do we continue to store it and\, by so doing\, pass on the burden of care to future generations? Or do we seek a permanent solution and thereby honour both intergenerational equity and the\n“polluter pays” maxim? \nThe talk outlines the fundamental science that underpins geological disposal\, the development\, over the past half-century\, of UK radioactive waste management policy\, the several failed attempts to implement geological disposal and the current campaign to find and implement a permanent solution. \nRegistration\nThis talk will be given via Zoom\, hosted by The Geological Society\, Western Regional Group. \n[button link="https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwkcOyorzsiHtAHKdp3XflmhGktBznYEMTT" bg_color="#806ab7" border="#806ab7" window="yes"]Event page[/button]

SUMMARY:Advanced Modular Reactor Webinar Series: Stable Salt Reactors
DESCRIPTION:Stable Salt Reactors – Dr Ian Scott\, Moltex Energy\n \nWednesday 7th October\, 12.30-1.30pm\nMoltex Energy are developing an inherently safe Stable Salt Reactor (SSR) which aims to provide carbon-free electricity generation technology with low upfront costs and reliable\, large-scale power at 300-500 MW per reactor unit. In addition to the ability to store energy for release in times of high energy demand\, the technology can recycle nuclear waste as fuel\, operate at high temperature to produce Hydrogen and use Thorium as an alternative to Urainium. The talk will be delivered by Moltex Chairman & Chief Scientist Ian Scott. \nSpeaker biography\nIan went to Cambridge University to study nuclear physics\, but was seduced during his first year by the excitement of the fast moving biological sciences and made his first career in that field. He became one of the four Chief Scientists in Unilever’s international organisation\, leading the global bioscience program before leaving to found an entrepreneurial drug discovery company. \nIn 2012 he became bemused by how nuclear energy had gone from being "too cheap to meter" to too expensive to afford and determined to try to remedy that flaw which was preventing nuclear energy making any meaningful contribution to fighting the climate change crisis. The result was his invention of the Stable Salt Reactor and the creation of Moltex Energy. \n\nRegistration\nRegistration and hosting of the webinar is via the Institute of Physics. \n[button link="https://www.events.iop.org/stable-salt-reactor" bg_color="#806ab7" border="#806ab7" window="yes"]Event page[/button]\nAdvanced Modular Reactor Webinar Series\nThe UK Government has recently announced a £40m investment to bring forward next generation nuclear energy technology. These “Advanced Modular Reactors” (AMRs) have the potential to unlock new applications for nuclear technology in the carbon-neutral economy of the future – going beyond grid electricity to include the supply of heat\, production of Hydrogen\, power to communities and industries in remote parts of the world and supporting intermittent renewable supply by storing energy. \nIn this series of webinars we will hear from the companies developing the technology – the three projects selected for BEIS funding and Moltex Energy who are forging ahead with first deployment in Canada. \nYou can register for the other webinars in this series via the Advanced Modular Reactor series registration link.
