Opportunity Information: Apply for DE FOA 0003534
ARPA-E is seeking input on the potential use of nuclear heat to improve efficiency and reduce emissions in refining and petrochemical plants. This Request for Information (RFI) is not a funding opportunity but aims to gather insights for a possible future program. The focus is on integrating nuclear heat transfer fluids into industrial processes instead of relying on combustion-based heating.
The RFI highlights three key areas of interest: 1. Developing intensified reactors for endothermic processes 2. Advancing heat transfer and augmentation technologies 3. Understanding the process dynamics of integrating nuclear heat with fluctuating industrial demands
Successful integration will require innovations in process design, sensors, controls, and thermal buffering, while also ensuring technical and commercial viability. ARPA-E is particularly interested in the challenges and opportunities in combining nuclear heat with industrial processes beyond electricity and steam generation.
The RFI operates under several assumptions, including the feasibility of nuclear heat for decarbonization, predictable regulatory approvals, a well-defined nuclear fuel cycle, and the ability to establish warranty protections and insurance.
Stakeholders in relevant fields are encouraged to provide input. More details can be found at [https://arpa-e-foa.energy.gov](https://arpa-e-foa.energy.gov).Apply for DE FOA 0003534
