Description
TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITYContinuous, Real-time High-Temperature Fluid Sampling and Analysis using Optical Spectroscopy for Molten Salt ReactorsNear real-time insights for nuclear material management and safeguards with a continuous, online high-temperature fluid sampling and analysis technology, offering.
Opportunity: Idaho National Laboratory (INL), managed and operated by Battelle Energy Alliance, LLC (BEA), offers the opportunity to explore a license and/or collaborative research agreement to commercialize this technology for Real-time High-Temperature Fluid Sampling and Analysis. This technology transfer opportunity is part of a dedicated effort to convert government-funded research into job opportunities, businesses, and, ultimately, an improved way of life for the American people.Overview: The rise of Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) and the inherent complexities associated with traditional nuclear material tracking methods have highlighted the need for innovative technologies for sampling and analyzing molten salt. To meet this industry need, a new invention has been developed that can continuously sample a high-temperature liquid, such as molten salt, providing near real-time analysis and composition data. This inventive approach aims to overcome the challenges and shortcomings of existing techniques, while enhancing process monitoring, and chemistry control within MSRs.Description: The new technology uses a material transfer vacuum pump, combined with optical spectroscopy, to continuously sample and analyze molten salt in real time. The venturi vacuum pump creates an aerosol from the molten salt, allowing for direct and online optical measurements. The application of multiple optical spectroscopy approaches combined with chemometrics provides comprehensive data on the sample. The analysis can be done anywhere in the coolant stream, minimizing exposure to damaging ionizing radiation. The salt/gas stream is then separated, and the molte...
