Laser Technology Solves One of the Maintenance Problems of Nuclear Power Plants with Ice Capacitors

A new technology developed by researchers at the University of Tennessee makes it possible to streamline one of the most complex maintenance tasks of certain nuclear reactors: the separation of thousands of ice baskets that can freeze each other during replacement operations. The system, based on a precision laser, allows cutting the layers of ice that bind the baskets without needing to melt them completely, thus reducing the time of interventi…
