SUMMARY:What about Nuclear Waste? by American Nuclear Society
DESCRIPTION:Join the CUNY CREST Institute and the Earth System Science & Environmental Engineering Program (ESE) in partnership with the American Nuclear Society for a seminar on ‘What about Nuclear Waste?’ on July 11\, 2024 from 12 to 12:55 pm EDT in the Exhibit room\, ST-124 or via zoom. \n\n\n\nAfter spending 4 to 6 years in a nuclear power reactor\, the fuel is considered “spent” or “used” and is removed from the reactor. Most of what people refer to as nuclear waste is this used fuel. To understand this fuel\, and why it is considered waste\, we must recognize the nuclear fuel cycle. This presentation will give you a quick tour of the nuclear fuel cycle and then answer the questions: what is radioactive waste\, where does radioactive waste come from\, and can we manage radioactive waste safely? \nProfessor Mary Lou Dunzik-Gougar\, PhD will serve as the seminar speaker. She is professor of Nuclear Engineering and Associate Dean of the College of Science and Engineering at Idaho State University. She has a PhD in nuclear engineering and MS in environmental engineering from Penn State University and a BS in chemistry from Cedar Crest College. Her nuclear career spans ~25 years\, during which she has per- formed research in various aspects of the nuclear fuel cycle\, including waste form development\, spent fuel pyroprocessing\, spent TRISO particle fuel qualification for disposal\, fuel and material development and characterization (pre- and post-irradiation)\, development of a waste minimization plan for a next generation nuclear reactor de- sign\, and fuel cycle modeling. \nRefer to the flyer for more details: Lecture 7-11-24 flyer \nLunch (pizza) will be served! \n\n  \n\n
