Materials in extreme environments
Material researchers at ANSTO use a range of in-house capabilities in the development, testing and characterisation of existing and emerging materials for extreme environments of the novel nuclear (fission/fusion) based energy-generation systems.
Rock art dating
Development of new techniques makes it possible to date Australian Aboriginal rock art.
Partnering with government and Aboriginal organisations to ensure the safety of drinking water in Aboriginal communities
ANSTO is working with government partners to ensure that radioactivity in drinking water supplied to Aboriginal communities is at levels considered safe for consumption.

Bacteria-driven remediation of iron ore tailings
Billions of tonnes of iron ore tailings are generated each year from the mining industry. Converting these toxic tailings into soil-like materials which can develop and sustain plant and microbial communities is critical for mine site remediation and improved environmental outcomes.
Nuclear power technologies
Nuclear power is used as a reliable and clean energy solution in most OECD countries and many other parts of the world. Although it is banned in Australia, a number of government reviews are looking at current prohibitions on nuclear power.
How nuclear energy generation could support clean hydrogen production
Nuclear-based energy generation systems not only provide comparatively low-cost, low-carbon emission electricity but also provide substantial amounts of process heat.
Atomic structure behaves like gears and torsion-springs to contribute to extreme compressibility
New facility complements ANSTO’s extensive radiocarbon capabilities
A new radiocarbon dating facility opened at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) will complement the extensive radiocarbon facilities at ANSTO’s world-leading Centre for Accelerator Science
Multiscale modelling of laser-based additive manufacturing for the development of process–structure–property relationships
ANSTO is working with academic and industry partners on the development of multiscale numerical simulations of Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) 3D printing.

Role at ANSTO
Research sheds light on mechanism by which long-term anti-anxiety drug use affects the brain
ANSTO health researchers have contributed to an international study published in Nature Neuroscience that sheds light on the mechanism by which anti-anxiety drugs act on the brain which could lead to cognitive impairment in vulnerable individuals.
Australia joins International Collaboration
ANSTO to contribute to research on Next Gen Nuclear Energy Systems
