The third GENIORS workshop took place in Milan (Italy), from 4 -6 November 2019. Entitled “Processes: flow-sheets & simulation”, this event was hosted by the Politecnico di Milano. Dealing with actinides separation processes and process simulations and modelling, this workshop was a pleasant opportunity for fruitful discussions and scientific exchanges. Around 50 participants coming from 8 different European countries, together with expert colleagues from Russia

The third GENIORS workshop will be held in Milan (Italy), from 4 -6 November 2019. Entitled “Processes: flow-sheets & simulation”, this event will be hosted by the Politecnico di Milano. As for the previous GENIORS meetings in Prague and Antwerp, the Milan meeting is an open workshop, dealing with actinides separation processes and process simulations and modelling. The first part of the workshop will
GENIORS participated in the Session n°3 titled “Advanced nuclear systems and fuel cycle” of the FISA 2019 Conferences, taking place in Pitesti (Romania) from 4-7 June. This third FISA session was devoted to R&D of a new generation of more sustainable reactor technologies, the safety design and licensing of technologies also identified by the European Sustainable Nuclear Industrial Initiative (SNETP-ESNII Generation
Co-organised by the partners of INSPYRE and GENIORS, the first INSPYRE school on Generation IV reactors fuel cycle will take place in Delft (The Netherlands), from 13-17 May 2019.The school, designed for graduate students, young scientists and professionals, will give a comprehensive overview of the nuclear fuel cycle for next generation fast neutron nuclear reactors. It will cover key aspects of chemistry, physics
