In the deuterium-tritium (D-T) fusion reaction, high energy neutrons are released along with helium atoms. These electrically neutral particles escape the magnetic fields that confine the plasma and are absorbed by the blanket covering the surrounding walls.If the blanket modules contain lithium, a reaction occurs: the incoming neutron is absorbed by the lithium atom, which recombines into an atom of tritium and an atom of helium. The tritium can then be removed from the blanket and recycled into the plasma as fuel.Blankets containing lithium are referred to as breeding blankets. A future fusion plant producing large amounts of power will be required to "breed" all of its own tritium. Through its Test Blanket Module (TBM) program, ITER will be the first fusion device to test this essential concept of tritium self-sustainment. Further research will be necessary to demonstrate the feasibility of large-scale tritium production and recycling.

More than 3000 participants registered for the Agency’s 69th general conference in Vienna this week, with 10,500 people joining online. The conference decides the direction of the IAEA’s work for the coming year, as it seeks to promote peace, health and prosperity worldwide. Water was the focus of the Scientific Forum and highlighted how by studying water at an atomic level, we can better manage our global water resources for future generations. During the conference, the Director General also opened a new Visitor Centre at the IAEA’s laboratories in Lower Austria.
