46th Actinide Separations Conference

Idaho Falls, May 16-18, 2023

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to attend 46th Actinide Separations Conference, being held May 16-18, 2023, in Idaho Falls, Idaho.

The conference provides a forum in which scientists and engineers can meet annually to present and discuss problems, experiences, results of research in progress, and other matters of interest concerning development, testing, and application of actinide separations chemistry and engineering, and fission product chemistry as it relates to actinide separations. The host responsible for this annual conference rotates between 7 DOE sites, and Idaho National Laboratory has the honor in 2023.

Consider joining us in beautiful Idaho to share your research, discuss application and collaboration, and network with colleagues in the actinide separations field. We are long overdue for an in-person gathering!

Kind Regards,

ASC 2023 Organizing Committee

Social Program

Social program will include an opportunity to visit Experimental Breeder Reactor I (EBR-I) and Advanced Test Reactor (ATR). Experimental Breeder Reactor No. 1 is a National Historic Landmark where useable electricity was first generated from nuclear energy in 1951. INL's Advanced Test Reactor is the world's premier nuclear test reactor. It provides unmatched, national priority nuclear fuel and materials testing capabilities for military, federal, university and industry partners and customers.

A variety of after-conference sightseeing activities are within reach for the participants. Yellowstone National Park (1 hr 46 min), Jackson Hole, WY (1 hr 52 min), Grand Teton National Park (1 hr 58 min) and Craters of the Moon (1 hr 26 min) are all within short driving distance.

We look forward to seeing you in Idaho Falls in 2023!
