Energy is a vital necessity for humans life and we have been consuming a large amount of fossil fuel especially since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Nowadays, this large consumption of energy is now threatening our daily lives and what we need now are nonfossil fuels, for instance, solar energy, biomass energy, nuclear energy, etc. Fusion energy is unlimited as an energy resource and one of the strongest candidates as a future energy source. At the National Institute for Fusion Science, we are developing and constructing a new fusion experimental device called the Large Helical Device. This device will be able to generate a small amount of tritium, as a fusion product. To remove it from the exhaust gases, we have designed a tritium cleanup system based on a innovational new concept. This system is mainly consists of a palladium permeator, decomposer and hydrogen absorbing alloys. It will be able to perfectly recover tritium without oxidizing it.
