ARC’s Technical & Workforce Development Support to DOE-EM

• DOE-FIU Cooperative Agreement program established in 1995 as a partnership between Florida International University and DOE’s Office of Science & Technology (EM-50)

• Since 1995 the Center has executed over 300 applied research projects for DOE in the areas of:

• Deactivation & Decommissioning (D&D) • Soil & Groundwater Research & Modeling• Nuclear Waste Processing/High Level Waste• Robotics Technology Development • Information Technology Development for Environmental Management

• The Center includes five research facilities, a radiological lab, a high bay facility, and a Large Scale Technology Test Site

• The DOE-FIU Program supports 22 full-time researchers (scientists and engineers), 2 FIU faculty collaborators, and about 25 - 30 STEM students per year being trained in DOE-EM research

Advancing the research and academic mission of Florida International University.

DOE EM Research Areas

High Level Radioactive Waste

• Pipeline unplugging and plug prevention –robotic technology development

• Pipeline integrity and analysis –development of robotic inspection tools, sensor analysis, material evaluation

• Fluid dynamics modelling for HLW processes – multiphase flows, turbulence

• Technology development for HLW solids on tank bottoms – sensor evaluations
