This book explores diverse applications of bulk and nano carbonaceous materials within the nuclear domain. Addressing various sectors, such as fission reactors in both front- and back-end cycles, and structural and functional material needs, it delves into their role in fusion reactors, particularly as plasma-facing and high radiation environment materials. Emphasizing their significance in waste management and the decommissioning phase of reactors, the book elucidates how each generation of nuclear reactors, including fast reactors, necessitates the utilization of carbon-based materials.
Features:
- Provides a fresh outlook and overview on the role of carbon materials for fission and fusion reactors.
- Includes a detailed examination of bulk carbon materials in fission and fusion energy applications.
- Delves into the emerging field of carbon nanomaterials, exploring their applications in front- and back-end fuel cycles, radiation detectors and sensors, fuel processing, and membranes for nuclear processes and nuclear batteries.
- Offers real-world solutions to challenges faced in the nuclear industry.
- Discusses the prospect of dealing with irradiated carbon material waste.
This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in materials and nuclear science, and carbon science.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
