The 25th International Nuclear Graphite Specialists’ Meeting (INGSM-25) will take place at the International Atomic Energy Agency (M building, Press Room) on September 29th- October 3rd 2025.

?This conference will continue the series begun at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Tennessee, in 2000. The annual conferences continue to explore the entire nuclear graphite life cycle and the technical issues which are presented in the design, operation and decommissioning of graphite-moderated nuclear reactors.

The previous conference held in September 2024 in Berkeley CA (USA) attracted nearly 100 delegates representing the key international design organisations, plant operators, specialised university research departments, consultants and regulators and with a particular look ahead to graphite-containing SMR designs.

?INGSM presentations are archived within the IAEA Knowledge Base on Nuclear Graphite? (IAEA NGKB) https://nucleus.iaea.org/sites/graphiteknowledgebase/Pages/home.aspx, and this will continue with presentations for the 2025 conference.

?The call for abstracts is open until 30th June 2025, on all aspects of nuclear graphite manufacture, deployment and decommissioning, in all relevant sciences and engineering.?Abstracts of between 100 – 200 words (diagrams and figures are not recommended) should be prepared in Microsoft Word according to the?ABSTRACT TEMPLATE?provided and will not exceed one page of A4. Abstracts have to be submitted at?ingsm25@gmail.com
