TerraPower is constructing its first reactor near a retiring coal facility in Kemmerer, Wyoming, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program. Engineers and developers are no longer treating the Natrium reactor as just a concept—they are actively constructing it as the only advanced, non-light water reactor in the Western Hemisphere. And they designed it to address the challenges of the clean energy transition. Located near a former coal plant, the Natrium facility demonstrates nuclear energy’s role in reducing global carbon emissions. Additionally, TerraPower also expects... Continue Reading
GE Sensing Unites with Panametrics
In recent years GE has united with technological innovators Panametrics. This new division of GE, GE Industrial Sensing, has operations around the world and offers a broad range of products and services to help customers solve complex challenges. One of the strongest areas of expertise for this newly formed GE business is ultrasonic flow measurement. This is because Panametrics uses transit-time and correlation tag methodologies. This technology provides accurate, long term flow measurement for a variety of pipe sizes and flow conditions covering liquids, gases, and steam applications. The GF868… Continue Reading
