On April 6, 2016, the largest-scale nuclear industry exhibition in China opened its doors and the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Project was there.
For four days, the actors of the global nuclear industry gathered in the National Convention Center in Beijing for the 14th China International Nuclear Industry Exhibition. One of the themes of the conference was "Fusion & Plasma Technology Applications."
The Chinese Domestic Agency for °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ (°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ China) was invited to participate by one of the sponsors of the event, the Chinese Nuclear Society. At its 36 m² stand, complete with graphic display boards, model exhibits and promotional videos, the public was given a comprehensive introduction to the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Project, the status of domestic fusion research and development, and the specific contribution of China to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ.
The Director-General of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ Organization, Bernard Bigot, and the head of the Korean Domestic Agency, Kijung Jung, both visited the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ stand, as well as representatives from institutes, universities, and suppliers involved with fusion at home and abroad.

KSTAR aims for longer plasmas
At the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE), the KSTAR tokamak recommenced operations in December after a major upgrade to replace the device's carbon divertor with a tungsten divertor.
According to an on the KFE website, the original carbon divertors could take a thermal load of 5MW/m², whereas the tungsten divertor can take 10MW/m². The upgrade is critical to the goal of sustaining a 100-million-degree plasma for 300 seconds by 2026. Data from the operational campaign will be directly relevant to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¸ßÊÖ, which will operate a tungsten divertor under similar plasma conditions in terms of shape and structure.
This testing campaign will continue through February 2024. Read more about the plans in this in English on the KFE website, or in Korean in the .
