Part 4/6:
An essential component of the Chelani experiment is the reactor itself, detailed by Malachi Header, a chemical engineering graduate and intern in the R&D department. Malachi describes how they utilize flanged inserts, wires, and specialized gaskets to create a safe and effective working environment.
The reactor is designed to handle positive pressures and hydrogen safely. They incorporate various thermal couples and pressure sensors, ensuring precise monitoring of operational conditions. This attention to detail is crucial as they navigate the complexities of high-stakes energy experiments.
