Thompson Igunma’s UF-INL research is creating unique models for molten salt reactors
Igunma
American Nuclear Society member Thompson Odion Igunma is a doctoral candidate in materials science and engineering at the University of Florida (UF) conducting research in collaboration with the Computational Mechanics and Materials Group at Idaho National Laboratory. His work focuses on advanced modeling of the complex interplay between molten salt corrosion, irradiation, and changes in alloy microstructure.
“I see molten salt reactors as a pivotal part of the next generation of nuclear energy,” Igunma said. “Their unique combination of safety, efficiency, and fuel flexibility makes them ideally suited to complement renewables in a low-carbon energy mix.”

The preparative Gas Chromatographic (GC) system for the JET Active Gas Handling System (AGHS) can separate a daily throughput of up to 20 moles of hydrogen isotope gas mixture into the pure products of T2, D2, and H2 with very small interfractions in between. Design, assembly and special parts of the GC system, the various steps of the gas chromatographic process including safety aspects, control system and results of the inactive commissioning are presented. The GC system fulfils its specifications for isotope separation. We also describe a simple program to calculate the hydrogen isotope profiles in the columns of the GC system.
