Transmutex is a revolutionary nuclear technology for the transmutation of long-lived nuclear waste. It was developed and tested at CERN in Geneva. We believe carbon-free nuclear power to be a key in the fight against climate change, and that the management of long-lived nuclear waste is the main obstacle to deployment of the new Generation IV safe power plants.
The technology uses particle accelerators to transmute existing long-lived nuclear waste which, in turn, produces carbon-free energy. Transmutation plants shall be placed next to existing nuclear plant in order to transmute waste on-site. Waste would not leave the premise for more safety and minimizing costs. The extra carbon free electricity produced in the process can either be reinjected in the grid or used to produce green hydrogen.
Our team is composed of physicists, computer scientists and environmentalists. Our ambition is as great as fighting climate change is urgent. We are based in Geneva, Switzerland.
