US patent awarded for unique Australian mining technology
Lithium Australia, a company that has a close association with ANSTO’s business unit Minerals, has been awarded a US patent for its unique lithium mining technology SiLeach®.
Science and Engineering Challenge
Over 250 students took part in ANSTO's annual Science and Engineering Challenge with an all-girl school taking top honours.
Nuclear and ionising radiation detection and dosimetry
Our services include the use of techniques to develop innovative radiation detector technology, such as performing alpha spectroscopy to characterise charge collection capability and radiation transport simulation. We also have expertise in measuring the electrical characteristics of novel detectors and semiconductor devices.
Nuclear power technology explored
ANSTO shared expertise on next-generation reactors and nuclear power with sustainable energy experts at the Australian Academy of Science symposium in May.
Fine particle pollution peaks during bushfires
Recent catastrophic Australian bushfires produced extremely high levels of fine particle pollution.
Space
ANSTO has a range of capabilities and expertise to support aerospace and space research.
Partnering in Antarctic research
Environmental scientists at ANSTO will contribute to major Antarctic research project in Antarctica funded by the Australian Research Council.

Small modular reactors can be built with Generation IV reactor designs
Small modular reactors can be built using Generation IV reactor technologies, that old the promise of considerably higher efficiency for decarbonised energy production and industrial heat co-generation.
Biodeuteration
Biodeuteration involves the growth of microorganisms in a heavy water (deuterium oxide) culture medium supplemented with either a deuterated or hydrogenated carbon substrate, depending on the level of deuteration required. The biomass is harvested and the deuterated molecule (e.g. protein) is purified and characterised.
