The Wren Group visited the Nuclear Waste Management Organization's Proof Test Facility in February, 2020. This was a fantastic opportunity for information exchange between NWMO and its academic research partners from several universities. We got to see the used fuel container design, bentonite clay box production, and fabrication and transportation technologies. Dr. Wren gave a presentation about our group's collaborative research on radiation-influenced corrosion with NWMO. Our students gave poster presentations on their research projects and had many fruitful discussions with NWMO engineers and scientists, and other visiting researchers. Thanks, NWMO, for hosting such a useful and well-organized event!
