NNSA awards BWXT $1.5B defense fuels contract
The Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration has awarded BWX Technologies a contract valued at $1.5 billion to build a Domestic Uranium Enrichment Centrifuge Experiment (DUECE) pilot plant in Tennessee in support of the administration’s efforts to build out a domestic supply of unobligated enriched uranium for defense-related nuclear fuel.

Using experimental data from indicator pump tests, various theoretical migration models for radionuclides in groundwater-bearing horizons were considered. The model parameters necessary for these considerations, especially migration velocity and dis-persivity, were obtained by statistical analysis of experimental data. These results show that pulse-like indicator injection best measured values for the model of instantaneous injection in indicator-free flowing groundwater in an infinite strata.
