Avalon Energia is an open-source initiative. It's aim is to solve the climate crisis by encouraging the build up of global carbon-free nuclear energy by solving the nuclear waste issue. Avalon Energia's plan is to remove the obstacles (public opinion, legislation, repository cities) in Finland to safely dispose of global high-level nuclear waste in a network of deep geological repositories in the bedrock of Finland. This is an estimated 10B€ per year or 1T€ total business for Finland. This high-level nuclear waste can be reprocessed in the future to power the entire planet with clean energy for over 70 years. Opinion polls in different countries show that the popularity of nuclear energy skyrockets, if the nuclear waste issues is solved. Let's Rock It!

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment.

Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...Joshua Orris
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

SUSTAINABLE ENERGY COCKTAIL
Solar • Wind • Energy Storage •
Carbon Capture & Storage •
NUCLEAR FISSIONProblems with long-term solutions:
• Commercial fusion reactors are 50+ years away
• Experimental reactor: 20 y → Demonstration reactor 20 y → Commercial reactor 10+ y → Scaling up
• Private/public work distribution, private investments and basic research are lacking; public R&D focusing on large, slow-built test reactors
• No viable commercial alternatives to Li-ion batteries (or pumped hydropower) in the horizon for scalable grid-scale energy storage
Problems with short-term solutions:
• Nuclear energy has a marketing (public opinion, legislation) problem: safety, economics, nuclear waste
• CCS/CCU tech is immature and economical when carbon prices are raised to 50-100 €/CO2-ton from
the current EU level of ~30 €/CO2-ton (in reality 5-10 €/CO2-ton because of over-abundance of permits)
• Li-ion batteries are an unrealistic solution to global grid-scale energy storage, because of limits of lithium
mineral reserves, small battery production capacity (300 GWh/y in 2030) and economics (unsubsidized ROI)
• Solar and wind produce electricity intermittently, so an equal capacity of peaking power plants (gas, coal) are
needed in the grid, and the need for baseload electricity and other sustainable district heating sources remain
19. …and new technologies can solve remaining issues
• New fission reactor models, incl. SMRs (small modular reactors)
• Oceans as an unlimited source of uranium
• Nuclear waste diamond batteries
• Spent uranium can be geologically disposed and, in the future, recycled

22. Safety Economics Nuclear waste
• Statistically safe and clean
• Known risks of nuclear vs unknown
consequences of carbon emissions
- climate change and refugees, resource
wars, food shortages, pollution deaths
• New fool-proof reactor technologies
- 4th generation models, recycling (fast
reactors), thorium (MSR), modular (SMR)
New technology Smart policies
Geological disposal
and recycling
• Carbon taxes and smart incentives in
the energy sector
• Type-approval of nuclear reactors
- cuts costs, increases safety and speeds
up construction via modularity
• Long-term political support
- cuts cost of capital and increases long-
term investments
• More reactor permits and SMRs
- allows for distributed, quickly-built SMRs
for local, reliable electricity and heat
• Deep geological repositories for safe
disposal of high-level nuclear waste (HLW)
aka spent uranium pellets
• Finland is the best chance for
international HLW repositories due to
politics, geology, tech and limited time
• Public support for nuclear energy
skyrockets if waste issue is solved (stats)
22
24. Geological HLW Repository – The Story
FINLAND
• Finland has four nuclear reactors, dating back to the 1970s and 1980s, owned by Fortum and TVO.
• In 1995, Fortum and TVO founded Posiva, which is responsible for managing their HLW aka spent uranium.
• Building on 40 years of Finnish and Swedish research, Posiva is building a Finnish geological repository for 12,000
tonnes of spent uranium at a cost of €3.5B over 100 years.
• The Olkiluoto Repository will come online in the 2020s and be the first in the world.
SAFETY
• A geological repository is beyond safe to anything biological at ground level.
• The Olkiluoto Repository is at a depth of 420 meters from ground level in the bedrock.
• 1-2 meters of bedrock blocks all direct radiation on Day 1, and the radiation level dissipates exponentially.
• The canisters are designed to endure at least 100,000 years and up to millions of years.
• The repository will be sealed, but access is possible, if recycling technology is developed in the future.
WORLD
• There is 300,000 tonnes of spent uranium around the world now without a disposal plan.
• 12,000 tonnes more of spent uranium is produced annually.
• HLW is perceived as a key problem with nuclear energy, but geological repositories are a working solution.

OECD Study 2010
“38% of those opposed to nuclear energy would support it, if the issue of
radioactive waste disposal were to be resolved. Just over a half (57%) of people
opposed to nuclear would continue to be opposed if the issue of waste were
resolved.
• 92% agree that a solution for highly radioactive waste should be
developed now and not left for future generations; •
• 81% believe that it is politically unpopular to take decisions about
the handling of any dangerous waste; •
• 79% think that the delay in making decisions in most countries
means there is no safe way of disposing of highly radioactive waste.
It is immediately clear that opposition to nuclear energy would reduce
considerably if the matter of waste disposal were resolved.”

• A group of well-funded multinational companies attempted to
establish an international HLW repository in Australia in the 1990s
• Pangea Resources
• Idea failed due to poor tactics and resulting public outcry
• Learning points:
• Radical public openness and inclusivity are needed
• Nationally-led project, not international
• Publicly-owned company
• Country should have experience in nuclear energy
• Public approval is not about the level of funding, but messaging

Important Considerations in the Ownership and Funding Plan
1 Marketing and lobbying to remove obstacles for disposal (2018-2022)
Construction of the geological repository network (2022-)
Tech development of nuclear reactors to recycle HLW (2030-)
THREE DIFFERENT OPERATIONS
2
3
• Investor profile: Short-term, small (3-6 years, millions-€) – Ideally thousands of Finnish private citizens to benefit them directly
• Team profile: PR, marketing and lobbying (with a focus in Finland)
• Business model challenge: Model for Return on Investment (ROI) for short-term investors
• Exit challenge: Finding partners for an Exit and the model for their ROI
• Base assumption: Reaching the objectives in Finland is only possible, if it directly financially benefits Finnish citizens and cities – thousands of Finnish shareholders
can help influence public opinion, lobby legislative change and persuade repository cities, eg. via a crowd-equity funding campaign and assured exit.
• Investor profile: Long-term, large (decades, billions-€) – Ideally Finnish institutional investors (eg. pension funds, government) to benefit the Finnish economy
• Team profile: Civil engineering, business, PR, marketing (both in Finland and internationally)
• Business model challenge: Will Posiva Oy be a partner or a competitor (as Posiva, TVO and Fortum refuse to talk before legislative change), and so how will Posiva be
either included in the ownership structure later, forced to co-operate or straight-up out-competed?
• Revenue stream: Fees from international energy companies to dispose of their HLW
• Investor profile: Long-term, large (decades, billions-€) – Reinvesting profits from HLW disposal, and international investors, energy companies and governments
• Team profile: Nuclear engineering, science, business, marketing (internationally)
• Partner profiles: Research institutes, international energy companies and startups, governments
• Business model challenge: Investments in HLW recycling technologies can be initiated later once profits from HLW disposal flow in. Finland does not have the resources
to develop and implement nuclear waste recycling technologies solo, so international partners are required. This is good for establishing international trust now on day
one, because a strong, mutually beneficial relationship is established when Finland and other countries/companies need each other for the different operations.
• Revenue stream: Sale of electricity and heat, and fees from selling recycled nuclear fuel to international energy companies

• Pre-determined exit valuation for Avalon Energia Open Oy/Ltd (Baseline: 1B€)
• Exit Objectives (Baseline: Amend Nuclear Energy Law, secure deal for 12,000+ t of intl HLW, and confirm 3 repository sites)
• ROI Incentives for Exit Partners (Baseline: Shares of Avalon Energia Oy for Finnish companies at a low company valuation, and discount
rate for intl energy companies for disposal of their HLW amounting to 2x the €-value of their share in the Exit Deal)
• Launch crowd-equity funding campaign
• Use an online platform, eg. Invesdor
• Fund Avalon Energia Open Oy/Ltd
A
C
• Negotiate with Finnish and international investors
• Back-up funding channel to supplement or kickstart
the crowdfunding campaign
• Priority for Finnish investors
B
• Tie intl HLW and repository cities to Avalon Energia Oy/Ltd
• Intl energy companies have incentive to dispose of their
HLW with Avalon Energia Oy because of discount
• Finnish repository cities have incentive to work with
Avalon Energia Oy because of free capital for them at Exit
• Doubles as risk management against Posiva Oy by tieing

Avalon Energia Oy/Ltd – Construction Company2
• Capital injection of 100M€ via Avalon Energia Open Oy/Ltd to kickstart operations
• Massive issuance of new shares to dilute founders-on-paper out and create an option pool to give or sell to new owners and investors
• Hiring team, creating Board of Directors and Advisors, planning operational budget, steps and determining funding needs for repositories
with Exit Partners, repository municipalities (and Posiva Oy if they choose to participate)
• Free or discounted shares for Exit Partners and repository municipalities in first funding round – amount of shares determined by valuation
• Build infrastructure to receive international HLW
• Ports, ships, railway lines, interim storages
• Begin construction of geological repositories
A
C
• Negotiate with Finnish and international investors + banks
• Ideally Avalon Energia Oy/Ltd will be 100% Finnish-owned
• Majority ownership for Finnish government and
institutional investors (pension funds) through which
Finnish society reaps the benefits for decades
• Gather funding via equity investments and bank loans
• International investors on board as-needed
B
• Reinvest profits into Avalon Energia Recycling Oy/LtdE
• Dispose of intl HLW in geological repositories
• Store intl HLW in interim storages temporarily to start cash
flow and gather enough HLW to fill one repository fast
• Dispose intl HLW in repositories as they are completed

Avalon Energia Recycling Oy/Ltd – Nuclear Technology Company3
• Reinvesting profits from Avalon Energia Oy/Ltd’s geological nuclear waste disposal business
• Leading the industry in (fast breeder) nuclear reactor technologies that can recycle HLW is vital
• Unlocking the technology and business will result in less HLW to dispose and a new revenue stream in selling recycled HLW and reactor tech
• Develop fast breeder reactor technologies and HLW recycling
• Avalon Energia Recycling Oy/Ltd can develop and access new
technologies in three ways:
• Invest in international tech startups like a VC fund
• Buy ready tech
• Develop technologies in-house
A
C
• Investments from Finnish and international investors + banks
• Finland cannot develop and scale up new nuclear reactor technologies
alone – nor perhaps should it due to international politics
• Avalon Energia Recycling Oy/Ltd should be an international venture
• Gather funding via equity investments and bank loans
B
• Kumbaya: The world gets more carbon-free nuclear energy, and Finland adapts to climate change with energy and food self-suffiencyE
• Buy HLW from Avalon Energia Oy/Ltd, recycle and sell as nuclear fuel to intl energy
companies
• The need for geological disposal will not vanish, because not all HLW can be recycled
and the resulting super-HLW is more energy-dense
• Use the repository network infrastructure in reverse: railways, facilities, ports and ships

Radiation risk: Non-existent
• 1-2 m of bedrock blocks all direct radiation
• A capsule lasts min. 100 000 years
• The radiation level of spent uranium drops
fast and ”liquorice” is dangerous only when
eaten after 10 000 years
Benefits: Very High
• The world has now 400 000 t of liquorice*
and 12 000 t/a more is produced
• Olkiluoto Repository has a 12 000 t capacity
• Price of liquorice* is ~1.12 M€/t and cost of
geological disposal in Finland is ~0.30 M€/t
• Finland can make a profit of 10 000 M€/a
