- This work reported a new method to regenerate aged steel pipes from nuclear power plants. This has led to >83% of mechanical property recovery according to the experimental measurement at Materials Aging Institute at France. EDF France invested €355k cash to the research. The comments from EDF researchers’ paper says “The study of innovative anti-aging treatment is also an interesting prospect to extend the life of some components” The Thermo-physical Research Institute Ltd in Suzhou (contact: yuweiwei@cgnpc.com.cn) invited the PI to present the work and join the bidding of 2 research grants to explore its applications in nuclear power plants.
