Nuclear

INOVOAL is formed by a multidisciplinary team of professionals with a long nuclear background in all different players in the industry such as designers, fabricators, operators and finally the regulator. 

We are fully committed to design, development, planning, management, and fabrication of different types of components, structures, and highly complex systems.

FISSION

Traditional nuclear industry where a nucleus of certain elements, such as uranium or plutonium, split, releasing large amounts of energy. This energy is primarily harnessed in electricity generation through nuclear reactors, which convert the heat produced by fission into electrical power. It remains one of the key alternatives to fossil fuels in the search for cleaner and more sustainable energy sources.

FUSION

The energy of the future. Two light atomic nuclei, typically isotopes of hydrogen, combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a significant amount of energy. This reaction is the same process that powers the sun and stars. Achieving controlled nuclear fusion on Earth has the potential to provide a clean, virtually limitless source of energy, but it requires extremely high temperatures and pressures to overcome the natural repulsion between the positively charged nuclei.
