29 OCT 2023 · How many times have people told you that nuclear takes a long time and a lot of money to build? What if there was an alternative to the huge investment of a large nuclear reactor? Today we explore the economy of multiples in the context of nuclear industry: making smaller reactors and with a modular design. With this episode we conclude the first season of the NuClear Podcast! We will be back soon to tackle more riveting topics connected to nuclear technologies: fusion, medical applications, safety and much more. In the meanwhile, give us a feedback and suggest topics for the new season at nuclearpodcast@divercityeu.com

23 OCT 2023 · Ever heard some geek tell you "with nuclear reactors we can recycle the waste!" ? It's time to find out more about new reactor technologies and how we can use them in order to reduce high level waste. It seems pretty easy: we just need to let the neutrons run fast! But there is actually much more to discuss, let PJ and JB drive you in the (not so) new frontiers of nuclear energy. NuClear is brought to you by DiverCity.

10 JUL 2023 · How do we get the uranium ready for use inside a nuclear reactor? What happens to the fuel within the reactor core? How do we deal with nuclear waste afterwards? Nuclear fuel cycle is a rather composite and complex topic, our hosts JB and PJ will present the basics of fuel enrichment, transmutation and disposal.

6 JUL 2023 · We navigated through the history of nuclear, we explained the basics of the technology and now we wish to give a little overview concerning what is happening around the world today and what might happen in the near future. New reactor types? SMR? Fast reactors? A dedicated episode will be released soon to discover more about these riveting concepts.

26 JUN 2023 · From the fuel to the turbine, how does a nuclear reactor work? The basics of fission will lead us to a complete understanding of where we generate the energy, knowledge of a nuclear power plant structure will tell us more about how we convert this energy into electricity. Episode 3 is a journey in Pressurised Water Reactors, lead by a physicist and an engineer.

19 JUN 2023 · From Three Mile Island and Chernobyl to nowadays, our hosts PJ and JB will guide us through what marked the evolution of nuclear technology after these two major accidents. What were the consequences? Is a nuclear renaissance after Fukushima possible? Find out more in a new and clear episode.

12 JUN 2023 · From 1938 to 1979, join us into a ride through the main steps of the birth of nuclear energy. From Otto Hahn and Lisa Meitner's breakthrough discovery to the peaceful applications of nuclear energy and its rapid industrial development. Hosted by Jean Baptiste Valentin and Pierluigi Tagliabue, the NuClear Podcast aims at providing all the info to understand nuclear energy and its potential.
