Russia’s AA Bochvar Institute of Inorganic Materials (VNIINM – part of Rosatom’s Fuel Company TVEL) has developed a basic version of the technological tritium cycle for modernisation of the strong field tokamak (TSP) at the Troitsk Institute of Innovative and Thermonuclear Research (TRINITI). The work is taking place within the framework of the federal project "Development of technologies for controlled thermonuclear fusion and innovative plasma technologies", part of the comprehensive programme "Development of equipment, technologies and research in the use of atomic energy for the period up to 2024". VNIINM’s department of special non-nuclear materials and isotopic products together with the specialists from TRINITI have developed the basic version of the technological tritium cycle for the experimental modified high-field tokamak.
