Background

This conference is the internationally recognized bi-annual forum for nuclear industry, utilities, end users and researchers working in the field of High Temperature Reactors and industrial process heat applications. Launched in 2002 by the European High Temperature Reactor Technology Network HTR-TN (Petten, The Netherlands) it was followed by Beijing (2004), Johannesburg (2006) and Washington DC (2008). The conference typically attracts some 500 participants with high level key note speakers from industry and politics, and with strong media coverage. In 2010, the conference is back to Europe and counts again on your outstanding contributions in 10 technical tracks related to High Temperature Reactor Technology.
