GIF talks with industry series #8 - Safety features of SEALER concept and marketability by Blykalla

Prof. Janne Wallenius is a professor of Reactor Physics at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, as well as cofounder and CTO of Blykalla. His competence areas include lead-cooled reactor design and safety analysis, as well as advanced nuclear fuel development. He has more than 100 publications in peer-reviewed journals and an h-index of 27. He has written text-books on transmutation of nuclear waste and Fast neutron Generation-IV reactors. In 2013 he co-founded Blykalla in order to commercialize the outcome of his research. In 2022 he was selected for the KTH Innovation Award, for his creativity, grit and courage in making innovations for a better society.

Dr. Anton Moisseytsev is a Principal Nuclear Engineer at Argonne National Laboratory and a U.S. Representative to the Generation IV LFR provisional System Steering Committee. Dr. Moisseytsev has twenty-two years of experience at ANL in nuclear engineering including nuclear power plant design and analysis, nuclear power plant safety analysis, system development, analysis of experiments, physical model development, and computer code validation. Dr. Moisseytsev worked on development of Lead-Cooled Fast Reactor and other fast reactor concepts at ANL since 2001, including Small Secure Transportable Autonomous Reactor (SSTAR), Secure Transportable Autonomous Reactor with Liquid Metal (STAR-LM), Secure Transportable Autonomous Reactor for Hydrogen production (STAR-H2), and a demonstrator based upon the European Lead-cooled SYstem (ELSY), as well as sodium-cooled reactors. Dr. Moisseytsev contributed to safety analyses and plant control and simulation of various reactor concepts and advanced energy conversion systems under development at ANL and elsewhere.
