1. Introduction
The International Graphite Specialists Meeting is the most important annual event for specialists in nuclear graphite. It has been held once a year in different locations around the globe, moving from continent to continent every year. The objective of INGSM is to provide a forum for information exchange on all aspects from nuclear graphite, ranging from the development of future advanced reactor technology (High Temperature Reactors, Molten-Salt Reactors) to the treatment and disposal of irradiated graphite waste. It must be noted that even though the INGSM is supported by the IAEA it is not a official IAEA meeting.
