Panelist (Panel Session)
In the United States and elsewhere, dozens of innovative start-up companies and other stakeholders are pioneering new designs that promise to lower risk and cost and reduce deployment barriers. The authors have been studying the implications of international deployment of advanced reactors, which present a variety of different safeguards challenges. For example, the IAEA has no experience...

Panelist (Panel Session)
Currently Indonesia are expecting to build its first Experimental Power Reactor which has HTGR technology. The fuel design of the reactor, which have the same type of fuel with HTR-10 in China, will provide its own challenges. It will use pebble fuels which does not fit or seem appropriate to the IAEA safeguards approach because the fuel is in a bulk form, rather than discrete items. Because...

The objective of this article is to explain the efforts for supporting establishment of national safeguards system in the Middle East area by the Korea Institute of Nuclear Nonproliferation and Control (KINAC). The importance of exchange of information on SSAC and national safeguards system through bilateral cooperation with newcomer countries which are unfamiliar with safeguards increases...

Panelist (Panel Session)
Remotely located Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) at the low end of energy production (on the order of 10 MWe, referenced here as Micro-SMRs) present unique challenges to nuclear safeguards and security [1]. These challenges include geographic isolation and distribution, lack of strong thermal or radiation signature, lack of access to core for monitoring, aqueous fuel forms, and harsh...
