This book was released on 2017-04-08 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two comprehensive histories of the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) provide extensive information about the lab's role in the development of nuclear reactors and other technologies, covering the period from before its establishment in 1949 through 2010. Originally created as the National Reactor Testing Station (NRTS), the laboratory has evolved over the years and acquired a number of slightly different names, including the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory (INEL) and the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL). The history of dozens of important atomic reactors is outlined in these reports. There also is coverage of the famous SL-1 reactor accident.

For a laboratory that began the decade in search of a well-defined mission and being offered up for cleanup and closure, the 2000s saw a dramatic turnaround. As the last century ended, Idaho's national laboratory was still known as the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL), the last "e" in the acronym symbolizing the fact that the majority of the lab's budget came from the Department of Energy's Environmental Management program. As the new century progressed, however, the department merged INEEL and Argonne National Laboratory-West (ANL-W) into one unified "INL." The result was a nearly billion dollar a year entity that led the newly-revitalized interest in nuclear power, in a country trying to cope with the specter of global warming and rising carbon emissions. To accommodate this growing mission and revitalize a laboratory that had not seen much in the way of new infrastructure over the past 20 years or so, the Department of Energy and Congress invested over $900 million in the lab through the Idaho Facilities Management Fund. That money was spent upgrading the infrastructure at the Advanced Test Reactor Complex and the Materials and Fuels Complex at the desert site, and at the Research and Education Campus in Idaho Falls - the three areas where the INL's primary nuclear energy research mission is carried out.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) established the National Reactor Testing Station (NRTS) in 1949 as a place for the safe development of nuclear energy. It selected the desert site in eastern Idaho on the Snake River Plain for its abundant supply of subsurface water and its relative isolation from densely populated settlements. The land already was in public ownership because the United States Navy had used it as a proving ground in connection with its Pocatello Ordnance Depot during World War II. The NRTS presently consists of about 890 square miles. Its name was changed to Idaho National Engineering Laboratory in 1974 and then to Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory in 1997. The business of NRTS was to experiment with and then accumulate and disseminate knowledge about nuclear reactors. One of the major goals of the United States Congress was to promote a commercial nuclear power industry. Much of the testing and experimentation at the NRTS was related to reactor safety and promoted this goal directly. Military application, although focused on weapon systems such as nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft bombers, were expected to generate knowledge and experience transferable to a commercial industry.
