The Royal Institute of Technology (Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan), KTH, is responsible for one-third of Sweden’s capacity for engineering students and technical research at postsecondary level. The university has over 11,000 undergraduate students, 1,500 active postgraduate students and a staff of 3,100 people.
KTH conducts top-notch education and research of a broad spectrum – from natural science to all branches of technology, including architecture, industrial economics, urban planning, work science and environmental technology. KTH has been active in the research for Partitioning and Transmutation (P&T) for several years with support of the National company SKB, who are responsible for waste management in Sweden, and the European Commission’s Fifth Framework Programme. Much infrastructure has been developed: the Monte Carlo burn-up code for core fuel cycle analysis and the TALL loop for the LBE Thermal Hydraulics and safety
experiments. Prof. Gudowski and Prof. Sehgal and their groups are experts and leaders in Transmutation Physics and ADS Reactor Safety respectively. Prof. Sehgal’s group in the Nuclear Power Safety division has also been leader, in Europe, in the Severe Accident Safety for LWRs and other reactor systems. KTH is performing the work in the IP EUROTRANS Project.
