FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Dr. Qi Ao Named Vice President, Research and Development For Nuclear Solutions, Inc.
IDAHO, MERIDIAN, Nov. 14 -/E-Wire/-- Nuclear Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:NSOL) is announcing the appointment of Dr. Qi Ao as Vice President, Research and Development.
Dr. Ao will direct Nuclear Solutions' R&D; program, which is targeted at further developing and modeling the company's proprietary HYPERCON(TM) ADS technology, which holds the promise of neutralizing nuclear waste safely and economically.
"As a well-known and respected scientist, Dr. Ao brings to Nuclear Solutions a wealth of experience in the field of computer modeling and simulation, particularly in photonuclear physics processes,' said Nuclear Solutions President Dr. Paul M. Brown.
"With a scientist of Dr. Ao's caliber at the helm, I am confident we will soon take the next step in the development of this technology. That step involves modeling all of the parameters so that engineering and construction of a demonstration facility can begin.' Dr. Brown said.
Prior to joining Nuclear Solutions, Dr. Ao worked at Thermo Gamma-Metrics, where as senior principal scientist he led an R&D; team in the modeling and development of a variety of commercially deployed nuclear instrumentation products.
During the course of his technical career, Dr. Ao has developed specific-purpose MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code) for numerous nuclear applications, including low-energy photon transport physics, detector response functions, and radiation transport systems.
Dr. Ao is also a member of the MCNP beta test group managed by the U.S. government's Los Alamos National Laboratories. MCNP is the most popular, powerful and standard nuclear process simulation code in the nuclear industry today.
Dr. Ao has also developed codes for use in nondestructive assay methods of materials characterization (Prompt Gamma-Ray Neutron Activation Analysis, X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis). He has authored several refereed archival journals, transactions, and conference proceedings.
Dr. Ao received a PhD in nuclear engineering from North Carolina State University. He earned both a masters degree in nuclear science and engineering, and a bachelors degrees in applied geophysics, at China's Chengdu Institute of Technology.
This press release may be deemed to contain forward-looking statements that could affect the financial condition and results of operations of the company and its subsidiaries. Further information on potential factors that could affect the financial condition, results of operations, and expansion projects of the company are included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
NOTES TO THE EDITORS:
1. Nuclear Solutions' technology, the HYPERCON(TM) ADS process, is an electron accelerator-based photodisintegration process that reduces the atomic mass of radioactive materials, thereby rendering them non-radioactive or radioactive with a short half-life. These processes involve accelerator-driven technology and photo-nuclear reactions, incorporating the most recent advances in the photo-nuclear industry.
2. The technology could be developed into new applications for remediation of nuclear waste. Industrially, it would operate at a sub-critical level, so the heat produced by the process could also be used to generate electricity in a safe and environmentally benign manner.
3. A detailed C.V. for Dr. Ao is available by request to the contact identified above.
