    James R. Powell is RIC's Vice President and Chief Scientist. He is one of the inventors of the unique radioactive waste vitrification and processing technologies under development. He is jointly responsible with the Vice President and Chief Engineer for the science, engineering and development.

    Dr. Powell holds a Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering from the Carnegie Institute of Technology and a Doctor of Science in nuclear engineering earned in 1958 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

    He was a highly successful engineer and scientist for Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) from 1956 through 1996. His experiences have led to significant successes in neutronics analyses of advanced reactor systems, cryogenic and superconducting power transmission, plasma physics, piezoelectric effects in rock strata, mine safety, fusion reactor technology, electronuclear (accelerator) breeder systems, transmutation of nuclear wastes, space nuclear thermal propulsion, district heating, advanced coal-fired power conversion, ocean energy systems and electromagnetic gun applications, and hydrogen and synthetic fuels production systems, and transportation infrastructure.

    Dr. Powell was and is a prodigious inventor. He is credited with inventing or coinventing RIC's advanced nuclear waste processing and vitrification technology, MAGLEV, the Particle Bed Reactor (PBR) for nuclear rocket propulsion, the use of aluminum structure in fusion reactors; blankets employing solid lithium ceramics and alloys for tritium breeding; and, demountable superconducting magnet systems.

    Dr. Powell is the recipient of the 2000 Benjamin Franklin Medal in Engineering.
