Investigation of Radionuclide Filtering Technology for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion Engine Testing

1) Research existing nuclear effluent filtering technology options for filtering: a) Identify existing nuclear industry certified hardware options, and their applicability and supporting infrastructure required to support NTP engine ground test operating environments; b) develop corresponding system footprint and cost estimate. 2) Identify NTP engine test environments requiring departure from existing certified filter technology and recommend path for associated technology development.
