Four million nuclear jobs by 2050: Who will do them?
Industry leaders from around the globe met this month to discuss the talent development that will be necessary for the long-term success of the nuclear industry.
The International Conference on Nuclear Knowledge Management and Human Resources Development, hosted by the International Atomic Energy Agency, was held in Vienna earlier this month. Discussed there was the agency’s forecast for nuclear capacity to more than double—or hopefully triple—by 2050 and the requirement of more than four million professionals to support the industry.

An adsorption model to predict the time-dependent removal efficiency of methyl iodide by a triethylene-diamine-impregnated charcoal bed under various operating conditions is proposed. The mass transfer controlling step is pore diffusion. Under humid conditions, the reduction of equilibrium adsorption capacity and effective pore diffusivity is considered. The predicted values agree well with the experimental results.
