Extensive cooperation with major Japanese technology and manufacturing companies for collaborative product development. Developing a range of technologies that are expected to have applications in the fusion industry and other industries. Gyrotron System Gyrotrons provide the heating system necessary to create and sustain a plasma state in magnetic confinement-type fusion reactor. Gyrotrons have been researched at national research institutes for many years. Building on this technology, we are researching and developing performance improvements and promoting their global adoption. Our R&D efforts include the development of higher frequencies and extended output duration, ensuring they are suitable for industrial use. As a private company, we prioritise excellence in product management and quality assurance, as well as many other aspects necessary for successful gyrotron.

© 2024 KYOTO FUSIONEERING Ltd. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 29 Our strengths Development of technologies and equipment to enable efficient tritium extraction from liquid breeder system. Design and development of plasma exhaust systems (including divertors, pumps, direct internal recycling system) and separation technologies (impurity gas removal, isotope separation system, etc.) to maintain continuous burning of fusion plasma through efficient tritium recovery. Optimisation of fusion fuel cycle systems and investigation of cost-competitive designs. Fusion Fuel Cycle System A key challenge in achieving stable operations of a fusion device is maintaining a continuous fuel supply. To address this, we are advancing fusion fuel cycle technologies which are essential for circulating hydrogen isotope gases like deuterium and tritium, the primary fuels for most fusion reactions. These gases are heavier forms of hydrogen and are pivotal for achieving the high-energy output desired in fusion reactors. Our research, rooted in studies from Kyoto University and other prestigious institutions, aims to refine the processes of exhaust, separation and circulation of these gases. In collaboration with Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL), a leader in hydrogen management, we are undertaking the UNITY-2 project. This initiative focuses on enhancing the technological maturity of fusion fuel cycle systems. CNL’s world-renowned facilities play a crucial role in this joint effort, bringing global expertise to the forefront of our research.

© 2024 KYOTO FUSIONEERING Ltd. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 30 Our strengths Development of advanced materials (e.g., SiC composites) with high heat resistance (up to 1000 °C) and low activation. Design and development of advanced blankets with heat recovery and tritium breeding capabilities at high temperatures, as well as the design of liquid metal molten salt loops (LiPb, Li, FLiBe). Design and development of advanced heat exchangers and innovative power generation cycles using helium and other media. Exploration of hydrogen production using zero-carbon, high-temperature heat sources derived from fusion energy, and carbon fixation technology through the pyrolysis of biomass. Fusion Thermal Cycle System Extracting heat efficiently from a fusion core requires innovative materials and plant designs tailored to the unique demands of Fusion Energy. These include managing extreme conditions like intense neutron bombardment, powerful magnetic fields, and high temperatures. At KF, we’re committed to developing a comprehensive system that not only withstands these challenges but also achieves high thermal efficiency. Our proprietary materials and plant designs represent a leap forward in fusion technology. They are specifically engineered to handle the rigors of fusion energy production, setting new standards in durability and efficiency. This development is a crucial step towards realising practical and sustainable fusion energy.

© 2024 KYOTO FUSIONEERING Ltd. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. 31 Our strengths UNITY Suite KF is advancing the UNITY (Unique Integrated Testing Facility) Suite, a collection state-of-the-art facilities dedicated to advancing engineering technologies critical for Fusion Energy commercialisation. The UNITY Suite includes two distinct yet interconnected facilities: UNITY-1: Being built at KF’s Kyoto Research Centre, UNITY-1 is dedicated to advancing the Fusion Thermal Cycle System. It simulates the high-temperature and magnetic conditions of a fusion plant to test various power generation systems. This includes innovative components such as a specialized ‘blanket’ for efficient heat extraction, liquid metal loops, and advanced heat exchangers, all operating without radioactive materials. This facility is pivotal in harnessing and converting the immense energy generated by fusion reactions into electricity. The UNITY-1 demonstration facility will not create a fusion reaction, and will not use any radioactive materials. UNITY-2: To be situated at Chalk River Laboratories in Ontario and developed in strategic alliance with Canadian Nuclear Laboratories, UNITY-2 focuses on the complete deuterium-tritium fuel cycle. This facility is set to pioneer global standards in critical operations such as fuel exhaust, pumping, and tritium handling. UNITY-2’s test loop will play a crucial role in demonstrating safe and stable fuel supply processes for core plasma.
