NPC 2023

Sept. 25 to 28, 2023
Conférence internationale
EN

The NPC conference is the key point meeting for the nuclear chemistry and radiochemistry international community. Since the 2018 edition of the NPC conference in San Francisco, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Chemists from nuclear power plants all around the world did not have much opportunity to attend in person an international conference dedicated to nuclear chemistry.  

The 2023 edition in Antibes – Juan les Pins will allow them to meet face to face again.

Topics include: Safety, materials’ integrity, maintenance and duration of operation, radiation field management, advanced reactors, environment preservation, improvements of monitoring and surveillance.

The aim is to share and transfer knowledge via oral and poster presentations covering operating experience, scientific studies and future trends.​

The conference will also feature the biennal Workshop on radiolysis, electrochemistry and material performance.
