Develops technology for producing large quantities of isotopically-enriched material needed for advanced fission and fusion nuclear power applications.

The AHA moment

John Elling is a chemist deeply embedded in the Los Alamos scientific community. For years he tracked a scientist working on a specific chemistry that was producing unexpected results — it actually worked. Elling saw how the metal salts derived through the process could be leveraged in the future of nuclear energy generation and launched Molten Salt Solutions to pursue it.
