Stony Brook University has scored $2.5 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Energy Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy.
This opportunity is part of the Creating Hardened And Durable fusion first Wall Incorporating Centralized Knowledge (CHADWICK) program. With a focus researching and developing new, advanced materials and manufacturing techniques, the program aims to enhance the durability of what’s called the “first wall” in a fusion power plant, where energy stems from a process called fusion. The first wall “is the critical armor that surrounds the fusion reactor’s core plasma,” according to the university.
The CHADWICK program represents an extraordinary opportunity for our department and Stony Brook University to contribute to the future of sustainable energy by developing materials that can withstand the extreme conditions of fusion power,” Dilip Gersappe, chair of the Department of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering, said in a news release about the funding. “This pioneering work led by Professor [Lance] Snead could lead to transformative advancements in the durability and efficiency of fusion power plants.”
Snead will work with David Sprouster, the co-principal investigator and a professor also from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, as well as collaborators from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, the Massachusetts of Institute of Technology and the Sandia National Laboratory.
