Summary of the contracting process

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority is planning a tender titled "Atomistic Modelling of Detritiation of Tungsten," classified under the research and development sector, specifically focusing on services. The project, which has a budget of £100,000, aims to utilise atomistic modelling to gather insights into the detritiation processes of tungsten tiles used in fusion reactors, particularly relating to surface oxidation post-service. The tender's communication indicates a future notice date set for 11th September 2022, suggesting more information will be provided at that time. The project will be delivered at the Culham Science Centre in Abingdon, UK.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in research and development, particularly those with expertise in materials science, consultancy services, and modelling applications relevant to fusion energy. Companies capable of addressing high-priority engineering challenges through advanced modelling techniques will find this opportunity well-suited to their capabilities. Engaging in this tender could enhance business growth by enabling firms to contribute to critical advancements in fusion research and development.

Notice Title

Atomistic Modelling of Detritiation of Tungsten

Notice Description

Detritiation of tungsten is a high priority topic where atomistic modelling can provide unique insights and materials property information of practical engineering value. To this end, the UKAEA proposes a modelling effort with a focus on the role of surface oxidation in the detritiation of tungsten tiles following fusion reactor service, including eventualities of accidental exposure to oxygen during service. Two phases of this project are envisaged.
