The Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) is a multi-program national laboratory for the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Environmental Management. SRNL is located at the Savannah River Site (SRS) near Jackson, South Carolina. It was founded in 1951, as the Savannah River Laboratory as an research, development and manufacturing center for tritium production from lithium. The intended end use of the tritium was in nuclear fusion weapons (such as hydrogen bomb), as well as in thermonuclear fusion reactors for civilian use. Plutonium production and research was a second main activity in the lab at that time.
Since the end of the Cold War, the laboratory expanded its civilian research. Savannah River Laboratory was certified as a national laboratory on May 7, 2004.[2]
SRNL research topics include environmental remediation, technologies for the hydrogen economy, handling of hazardous materials and technologies for prevention of nuclear proliferation, vitrification of nuclear waste and in hydrogen storage. SRNL is a founding member of the South Carolina Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Alliance (SCHFCA).
