Project Omega and Idaho National Lab Announce ARPA-E Award to Advance Used Nuclear Fuel Recycling
The U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) has awarded Project Omega a contract to advance used nuclear fuel (UNF) recycling. Through the award, Project Omega will validate key components of its molten-salt electrochemical recycling platform designed to safely process UNF, recover valuable isotopes, and significantly reduce long-term waste management challenges.
Project Omega Emerges From Stealth to Recycle America’s Spent Nuclear Fuel
Project Omega, an advanced nuclear recycling company, today emerged from stealth to announce its mission to rebuild America’s nuclear fuel cycle end-to-end and unlock a new era of energy abundance for the United States. By developing and deploying cutting edge technologies and processes to recycle spent nuclear fuel into long-duration, high-density power sources, and critical materials for the nuclear industry, Project Omega aims to help supply abundant energy to maintain our nation’s technological leadership.
