CNNC Innovation Multi-functional Surface Modification Device Shipped and Delivered

On August 14, 2026, the multi-functional surface modification device developed by CNNC Innovation (Chengdu) Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "CNNC Innovation") was officially shipped and delivered. This multi-functional surface modification device utilizes CNNC Innovation's proprietary high-energy metal ion source, gas ion source, and supporting single-stage pulsed magnetron source power supply and DC-superimposed pulsed bias power supply. It can perform ion implantation surface modification, metal surface alloying, non-metal surface metallization, auxiliary heating, and other process operations. It can simultaneously achieve gas ion source cleaning and auxiliary deposition treatment. Through the DC-superimposed pulsed bias power supply, directional plasma functionality can be realized, which accelerates deposition efficiency while effectively suppressing abnormal arc discharge and improving film quality.

US Hanford Submits Permit Modification Applications to Accelerate Tank Waste Cleanup via "Vitrification + Grouting"

The U.S. Department of Energy's Hanford Field Office recently submitted two permit modification applications to the Washington State Department of Ecology, planning to accelerate the cleanup of radioactive waste in tanks at the Hanford site through a dual-track treatment strategy of "vitrification + grouting." The DOE stated that this approach is expected to reduce risks from aging tanks and save taxpayers billions of dollars. The waste primarily targeted by these applications is low-activity liquid waste processed through the Tank-Side Cesium Removal system, which removes more than 99.9% of radioactive materials from the treated waste. The DOE stated that the proposed permit changes would integrate tank-side treatment, grout solidification, and out-of-state disposal into a standardized process to continue advancing the treatment and transfer of some waste beyond the capacity of the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant.
