🔵 Blue Capsule Technology Announces Cooperation on TRISO Fuel with Framatome
“Our HTR project is based on the idea that France, and Europe, with its world-class nuclear industry, needs a robust supply chain to best achieve its goal.”

🏭 Décarbonation, souveraineté énergétique, et une énergie fiable et compétitive sur plusieurs décennies : tels sont les besoins des sites industriels en France et en Europe.
Mais comment passer d’un design prometteur à un réacteur capable de relever ces défis ?

Blue Capsule Technology est désormais engagée dans l’Étape 2 (« Revue préparatoire ») du dialogue technique avec l’ASNR - Autorité de sûreté nucléaire et de radioprotection, dans le cadre de la phase préparatoire proposée aux porteurs de projets de petits réacteurs nucléaires modulaires.
... 🌍 HTRs in general have a critical role to play – and we’re excited to see strong momentum building across Europe and beyond.
#IndustrialDecarbonisation #EnergySovereignty #SMRs #Nuclear #HTR
...💡 And an interesting fact: HTRs are intrinsically safe, as demonstrated by the #HTTR project in Japan last year, which again underscored the unique safety advantages of TRISO-fuel based systems. 5/6

... 🔎 Whether they are gas-cooled or - in the case of Blue Capsule - sodium-cooled, high-temperature reactors (#HTRs) can provide low-carbon heat and steam for all manner of industries, replacing fossil fuels and enhancing the energy sovereignty we need in #Europe. 4/6
... 📣 Led by the National Centre for #Nuclear Research (NCBJ), the technical design of Poland’s first high-temperature gas-cooled reactor has been completed, with an eye on future applications in the #chemical and petrochemical industries. 3/6
... ⚛️ We take the opportunity to congratulate Poland on the advancement of its HTGR-POLA reactor – an important milestone for Europe’s drive to decarbonise industry and strengthen #energy sovereignty. 2/6

In fact, half of Europe’s primary aluminium production capacity has been curtailed since 2020, and 1 out of 5 #alumina plants has ceased operations due to high energy costs & regulatory burdens.
The pressure on Europe’s aluminium supply chain is expected to remain or even increase in the future.
📢 “We are de-industrialising while we are speaking.”
🔎 The aluminium industry in Europe, including #alumina production, is suffering from closures and is losing competitiveness. The geopolitical context is not helping.

🔵 Our solutions for cement production with activated clay, such as preheating combustion air at 700°C, could reduce emissions by 80%. Full decarbonisation, requiring 850°C, is of course possible but at higher cost.
In a sector that’s responsible for ~8% of global CO₂ emissions, it matters!
🔎 Did you know that if activated clay process(es) are implemented, Blue Capsule could decarbonise the entire French #cement industry with only a dozen capsules?
💡 Decarbonise the entire French cement industry with only a dozen #SMRs? 👇
🎞️ Unique nuclear heat for cement and alumina. If your industry needs high-temperature heat—we deliver, without the CO₂.

💙 This conversation gets to the heart of who we are @ Blue Capsule & why we’re building our small modular reactor.
It's about decarbonising, re-industrialising, & securing high-temperature heat for energy-intensive industries - industries that need help to stay competitive and keep jobs in Europe!
... We talked energy costs, #gas prices the recently-published #CleanIndustrialDeal, and how low-carbon tech such as small modular #nuclear reactors (SMRs) could step in to join the fight.
...
... over 30,000 companies (most of them SMEs), Europe's #chemicals sector is one of the pillars of the continent's economy.
We spoke to George Kapantaidakis & Nicola Rega of the European Chemical Industry Council @cefic.bsky.social, who warned that we are already seeing closures on European soil.
🎙️ “Europe’s #chemicals industry is at breaking point!” – that’s what we heard on the latest Blue Nuclear Pod.
🛑 No less than 8% of the sector is at risk if immediate actions aren’t taken. And it matters. With more than 1.2 million direct jobs and ... 🧵
