STATEMENT OF WORK

STATEMENT OF WORK

Fresh TRISO Fuel Transportation In Support of Project PELE

1.0 BACKGROUND

SCO is partnering with the Department of Energy (DOE), to develop, build and demonstrate a mobile nuclear reactor prototype (Project Pele). Three industry Design Teams are currently competing for the opportunity to design and build the Pele prototype that will be demonstrated in 2024 at a DOE facility.

A key enabler of Pele is a new game-changing nuclear fuel known as TRISO (TRistructural-ISOtropic). TRISO fuel has multiple layers of coatings around a uranium kernel, trapping fission products inside even under extreme temperatures and pressures. The Department of Energy (DOE) has invested over $300 million dollars since 2000 developing TRISO fuel through the Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) program. During that time DOE demonstrated that the silicon carbide layer that surrounds each particle will contain nuclear fission products during accident conditions, at temperatures up to 1800º C. TRISO fuel particles are very small (<1mm) and many particles can formed into larger fuel “compacts” using a carbon based binding agent. The Pele nuclear reactor will use cylindrical compacts that are approximately 1-inch long and ½-inch in diameter. Each of the Pele compacts will contain approximately 3,400 TRISO particles. See Figure 1 below:

Figure 1: TRISO Fuel

TRISO fuel will be fabricated at BWX-T Nuclear Operations Group (BWX-T NOG) in Lynchburg, VA. The National Nuclear Security Agency (NNSA) will provide Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU) from existing stockpiles to BWX-T NOG where it will be down-blended to 19.8% High Assay Low Enriched Uranium (HALEU). The HALEU will be formed into TRISO particles through a coating and sintering process, then compressed to form cylindrical TRISO Compacts (Figure 1 above). The TRISO compacts will be transported from BWX-T NOG to either Idaho National Laboratory (INL) or Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Q1CY2023 depending on the outcome of the NEPA Environment Impact Statement (EIS). The shipment of up to 680 kg (400 kg U) will be accepted at INL or ORNL then installed into the PELE prototype core.
