CCTE Irradiation Plan – PBNC 2024
This paper outlines the irradiation plan for the CCTE-ANEEL-1A experiment in the ATR including irradiation locations, test train geometry, and a summary of the experiment design analysis. ATR irradiation is expected to begin in Spring 2024, with burnup targets of 20, 40, and 60 GWd/MTU.

CCTE-ANEEL-1A Irradiation Experiment Test Plan
Clean Core Thorium Energy (CCTE), LLC is committed to the development of alternative nuclear fuels using thorium, primarily for Pressurized Heavy-Water Reactors (PHWR) / Canada Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) reactors. CCTE requested Idaho National Laboratory (INL) support to conduct irradiation testing on various mixed thorium-uranium oxide ((Th,U)O2) fuel samples to help assess fuel performance.
