Through our novel core design and patented heat-intensive fission process, we are able to transcend today’s light water reactors and Gen IV concepts to provide unprecedented advantages and unlock the full potential of nuclear fuel.
Our innovative technology can fundamentally improve the lives of people all over the world, making fossil fuels history. Our arguments:
The simple design is a breakthrough, harnessing for the first time in the nuclear sector the emergence of a new class of materials and recent advancements in process engineering. Designed to exploit the full potential of nuclear fuels, a Dual Fluid power plant delivers many times more energy than other technologies.
Designed to exploit the full potential of nuclear fuels, a Dual Fluid Reactor could prove to be the most efficient energy source ever developed. It’s mass-producible, compact reactor core will make up to a hundred times better use of nuclear fuel than today’s light-water reactors. This, together with massive design simplifications, has the potential to halve today’s electricity costs.
Headquartered in Berlin Germany, our world-class technology company is passionately driven by the belief that development and prosperity are possible everywhere – when we provide reliable energy that nurtures a planet worth living on.
Dual Fluid offers the only nuclear design that is capable of using nuclear fuel in a way that leaves no significant amount of long-lived fission products, made possible by a novel pyrochemical recycling process combined with the reactor. Existing nuclear waste can be used as fuel. The residual materials will only need to be stored for about 300 years, compared with several 100,000 years today.
“Dual Fluid will provide low-emission energy in abundance. This can help create more humane, modern and prosperous societies.”– Armin Huke, President of Dual Fluid
Operating at exceptionally high temperatures of 1000°C at low cost, a Dual Fluid Reactor can provide clean and stable heat for industrial processes such as steel or ammonia production. Clean hydrogen and synthetic fuels can be produced at a price significantly lower than today´s fossil-based alternatives. This frees not only the electricity sector, but all areas of life from emissions.
A preliminary safety analysis from Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI, Switzerland), and the Technical Universities of Munich and Dresden (Germany) has confirmed the favorable safety properties of Dual Fluid technology. Our partners at the National Nuclear Research Centre, Poland, have studied the reactor physics and thermal hydraulics. Together with the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization ANSTO, we are carrying out fuel development.
