  1. Global Nuclear Energy Partnership (GNEP)Indoctrination Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE)

  2. Training Requirements Initially: • GNEP Indoctrination NSHE Basic Research Quality Assurance Program Scientific Notebook

  3. Training Objectives • At the conclusion of GNEP Indoctrination you will understand: • GNEP mission • Organization Structure • Quality Assurance Requirements • Researcher’s role in GNEP

  4. Introduction • Global demand for Nuclear Power • US needs to implement domestic program to remain competitive • Global need is compelling • US must implement quickly to retain international influence

  5. GNEP Mission • Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative – R&D safe nuclear power • International GNEP – Nuclear Power vs. Nuclear Weapons • In the US – technologies and facilities recycle used nuclear fuel

  6. GNEP Mission (continued) SUCCESS: • Waste and usable components • More energy • Waste management

  7. Advanced Fuel Cycle R&D 1. Used Fuel Separations Technology 2. Advanced Nuclear Fuel Development 3. Fast Burner Reactors and Advanced Transmutation Systems

  8. Advanced Fuel Cycle R&D 4. Advanced Fuel Cycle Systems Analysis 5. Advanced Computing and Simulation 6. Safeguards 7. Advanced Waste Forms

  9. GNEP Management Actions • Coordinate with other countries technology, policy, business obstacles to overcome • Develop adjustable roadmap for demonstrating solutions to technical issues to support GNEP facilities • Coordinate industry help in design and engineering supporting fuel recycling center and advanced recycling reactor • Flowdown of Quality Assurance requirements

  10. UNLV GNEP Organization Chart Anthony Hechanova PhD UNLV Project Director Julie Bertoia MS PI of QA Task Amy Smiecinski MS QA Manager Research Task PIs and researchers

  11. University Research Management • Coordinate with national GNEP management • Develop and perform research activities • Assure QA isimplemented • Assure delivery of valid research results to GNEP

  12. Researcher Role • University program significant role—promote US, conduct research • SUCCESS— - Waste and usable components - Reactors extract more energy - More effective management of waste

  13. Summary • GNEP vital to global pursuit of safe and clean Nuclear Energy • Managers support GNEP and university programs • Research QA • Researchers are critical to GNEP

  14. THANK YOU! You have now completed a part of your required training. If you have any questions, please contact your PI or the Project Director, Anthony Hechanova (702) 895-1457 hechanov@unlv.nevad.edu
