#NNSA is proud of our partnership with @SCKCEN on converting Belgian Reactor 2 from highly enriched uranium to HALEU. This was a transformative step in creating stable supply chains of molybdenum-99 and other medical isotopes while eliminating a proliferation risk.

Look inside HADES, the oldest underground research lab buried in a deep clay formation in Europe. As deep as 225m underground in 🇧🇪, it’s used for experimental research on disposing of high level &/or long-lived radioactive waste. More from @SCKCEN 👉 bit.ly/3Te9JVl

Very interesting and challenging opportunity with @SciMingo to briefly present my #PhD #research at @SCKCEN and @CMK_Uhasselt on #radioxenon adsorption in #porousmaterials to improve the worldwide verification of the Comprehensive nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty @CTBTO
Did you know that #hospitals 🏥 and other civilian installations hinder us from detecting clandestine #nuclear weapons testing? 🌎 ☢️ 🕵️ @ChGueibe (@SCKCEN - @uhasselt) explains why and how he wants to help solve this problem. #nucleartest 🎥 👀sciencefiguredout.be/improvi…

We investeren 100 miljoen in onderzoek naar kleine, modulaire reactoren (SMR's) door @SCKCEN in samenwerking met internationale partners. België kan klimaatopwarming niet alleen tegengaan, maar onze R&D kan wel wereldwijde impact hebben.
