In support of the MFC and NRIC missions, INL needs to maintain effective nuclear Research, Development, Demonstration and Deployment (RDD and D) capabilities at MFC by providing a facility to demonstrate new microreactors of low power and perform criticality experiments. To meet these needs the proposed Transient Reactor Test (TREAT) Reactor Experiment Cell (TREXC) is being designed and constructed in the TREAT facility. The purpose of TREXC is to provide certain facilities, systems, and services that demonstrators will be able to use.
