World Bank, IAEA partner to fund nuclear energy
The World Bank and the International Atomic Energy Agency signed an agreement last week to cooperate on the construction and financing of advanced nuclear projects in developing countries, marking the first partnership since the bank ended its ban on funding for nuclear energy projects.

Tritium release behavior through structural material in the presence of molten lithium-lead alloy (Li17Pb83) was studied in TREXMAN program. Tritium permeation ratio to the secondary carrier gas line depends strongly upon H2 pressure in He sweep gas of the primary and the secondary carrier gas lines. It increased with increasing H2 pressure below 104 Pa and above the value it became constant. An analytical model was applied to the experimental data on the tritium release to obtain the mass transfer coefficient.
