Seminar

Designing for Nuclear Values: An Ethical Perspective on Nuclear Reactor Design

Open to the Public

What is the Best Achievable Nuclear Reactor? Safety has always been a criterion for nuclear reactor design, but in addition to safety we design for security, sustainability, economic viability, as well as intergenerational justice. The evolution of nuclear reactor generations (I, II, III, III+ and IV) will be reviewed in this talk, led by MTA/ISP Research Fellow Behnam Taebi.

A technology roadmap for generation IV nuclear energy systems.
