The ALPS project aims to advance nuclear fusion technology by developing innovative materials for the first wall of fusion reactors. It focuses on using Additive Manufacturing to create high-performance tungsten components that can withstand extreme conditions in fusion environments.
Energy is now the topic of a full-blown political and economic crisis in Europe.
Nuclear fusion is a promising option to replace fossil fuels as a limitless, safe, and CO2-free source of energy.
However, some challenging engineering issues must be addressed before fusion can supply electricity to the grid.
The fusion reactor's first wall is subject to severe heat flux, erosion, and sputtering.
Therefore, new materials must be developed. A liquid metal wall has been introduced as a viable soluti…
