21st Int. Conf. on Environmental Degradation

The purpose of the 21st Environmental Degradation meeting is to foster an exchange between plant operators, industry and academic researchers concerning materials degradation issues and solutions in the nuclear power plants of today and the future. This meeting covers issues facing nickel base alloys, stainless steels, pressure vessel and piping steels, zirconium alloys, and other materials in nuclear power systems. Components covered include pressure boundary components, reactor vessels and internals, steam generators, fuel cladding, irradiated components, fuel storage containers, and balance of plant components and systems. We are also looking to the future with sessions on advanced manufacturing methods, SMRs and Gen IV reactors. Join an international group of industrial and academic leaders for this opportunity to exchange experience, research and ideas.
