  • Paris hosts the

    International Conference NPC 2012 on Water Chemistry of Nuclear Reactor Systems from September, Sunday 23 to Thursday 27

    and the

    9th Intl Workshop, on Radiolysis, Electrochemistry & Materials Performance on September, Friday 28 > Following successful NPC 2008 Berlin and NPC 2010 Qubec, the NPC 2012 Paris conference is a major event for nuclear plant Chemists and Radiochemists. Research, new development, operating experience, long life duration, new environmental rules, so many areas to investigate and a meeting place to discuss with many colleagues to prepare future stakes. >The first workshop on light water reactor (LWR) coolant radiolysis and electrochemistry was held in 1998 to discuss and to exchange on the fundamental basis of water radiolysis and electrochemistry and their application to LWR fields. Following the successful workshops that have been held in conjunction with the International Conference on Water Chemistry of Nuclear Reactor Systems, the 9th workshop will cover any aspect of aqueous electrochemistry or radiation chemistry relevant to any part of the nuclear cycle.

    Organized by SFEN French Nuclear Energy Society Materials Science and Technology, Non Destructive Testing, Chemistry Technical Section

    Supported by

    in Cooperation with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
