The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission awarded a $500,000 Project Grant to Louisiana State University (LSU) under the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Scholarship and Fellowship Program (CFDA 77.008). The funding will support the "ELECTROCHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL REMEDIATION OF RADIOACTIVELY CONTAMINATED WATER" project from March 15, 2024 to March 14, 2027. The project aims to develop advanced electrochemical and biological techniques for the remediation of radioactively contaminated water. As a major research university, LSU has significant expertise in nuclear science, engineering, and environmental remediation, making it well-positioned to conduct this important work under the NRC's Scholarship and Fellowship program. The funding will enable LSU to carry out the proposed research and contribute to building a capable nuclear workforce to support the safe operation and regulation of nuclear facilities.
