The resulting tsunami damaged and disrupted Japan's economy, society and tragically took the lives of thousands. The nuclear power plant at Fukushima Daiichi was not spared in this event. The power plant has experienced massive damage to its reactor containment housings and the spent fuel rod holding pools resulting in the release of radioactive materials. To help our members and the chemical engineering community understand what happened at Fukushima Daiichi, AIChE has enlisted Dr. Stuart T. Arm of EnergySolutions<http://www.mmsend36.com/link.cfm?r=646818570&sid=13035764&m=1300409&u=AICHE&s=http://www.energysolutions.com/> to host a FREE Webinar<http://www.mmsend36.com/link.cfm?r=646818570&sid=13035765&m=1300409&u=AICHE&s=http://apps.aiche.org/chemeondemand/preview.aspx?ID=9bbd6327-7688-4a1b-a9f7-279d11e57d88> next Tuesday, April 12, 2011 between 3:00 and 4:00 PM EST. Dr. Arm has a long history in the nuclear sciences starting in the United Kingdom where he earned his PhD and worked for the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority at Harwell, developing and evaluating process technologies for reprocessing spent nuclear fuel. Dr. Arm has lived in the USA since 1994 and he has been a member of the American Nuclear Society<http://www.mmsend36.com/link.cfm?r=646818570&sid=13035766&m=1300409&u=AICHE&s=http://www.new.ans.org/> since 2004 and was the American Institute of Chemical Engineers Nuclear Engineering Division<http://www.mmsend36.com/link.cfm?r=646818570&sid=13035767&m=1300409&u=AICHE&s=http://www.aiche.org/DivisionsForums/ViewAll/NE.aspx> chair for 2009. The purpose of this webinar is to provide the AIChE members and non-members with information on what happened and the current status at Fukushima Daiichi based on the most credible technical sources; provide comment on the potential implications for the US nuclear industry based on recent comments by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission; and provide members with resources to allow them to follow future events at Fukushima Daiichi.
