Nano-amended Cement Composites for Nuclear Waste Storage
Reference #: 01389 The University of South Carolina is offering licensing opportunities for nano-amended cement composites for nuclear waste storage. Background: Cement waste forms are typically used to store low-level nuclear waste, for which the primary isotope of interest is technetium (Tc). Several studies have demonstrated the rapid re-oxidation...

Non-aqueous 2D Material Based Hydrogen Isotope Separation
The separation of hydrogen isotopes from one another is desirable for multiple purposes including nuclear fusion reactors, medical imaging, and cancer therapy. Current separation technologies are aqueous based and utilize isotope exchange or distillation systems. These methods are extremely expensive with large energy consumptions. In addition, the...
