ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Decommissioning & Environmental Sciences
The mission of the Decommissioning and Environmental Sciences (DES) Division is to promote the development and use of those skills and technologies associated with the use of nuclear energy and the optimal management and stewardship of the environment, sustainable development, decommissioning, remediation, reutilization, and long-term surveillance and maintenance of nuclear-related installations, and sites. The target audience for this effort is the membership of the Division, the Society, and the public at large.

We developed a technique for producing nickel-chromium weld overlay claddings at increased metal deposition rates. Addition of supplemental filler metal in the form of atomized powder to the submerged arc surfacing process increases the total metal deposition rate in proportion to the amount of metal powder added. Deposit chemistry, micro structure, and integrity are similar to those produced by conventional, oscillated electrode submerged arc cladding operations.
