Used TAIYO NIPPON SENSO TTR-1800-APXW #9148380 for sale

TAIYO NIPPON SENSO TTR-1800-APXW is a nuclear reactor designed for both electricity generation and research activities. It features an all-ceramic reactor core with integral primary and secondary coolant loops; these loops are connected to separate cooling towers. The core assembly features a pressurized water design, in which coolant water is heated within the core and circulated by the pressurized water pumps of the primary loop. This heated coolant is then sent to the steam generator, where it heats secondary coolant before being pumped back into the core. The fuel source for the reactor is uranium oxide pellets enclosed in zirconium alloy cladding; this combination provides both effective control of reactor conditions and a high level of reliability. The reactor also features a traditional control rod equipment, which allows for precise and quick reactivity control while also providing for shut-down capabilities in the event of a core emergency. TTR-1800-APXW reactor utilizes a heavy boron blanket to limit the effects of potential meltdown, and an upgrade to a heavier graphite/uranium fuel mix further limits the likelihood of criticality. The reactor also utilizes an emergency core cooling system, which offers a secondary means of cooling the core in the event of a primary loop failure or control rod failure. TAIYO NIPPON SENSO TTR-1800-APXW is a versatile reactor and is capable of both research and bulk electricity generation. In research mode, the unit can be easily adapted to meet the specific requirements of a given experiment; in power generation mode, the reactor can generate up to 1800 MWe, making it an effective and reliable electricity source. As a safety precaution, the reactor is housed in a containment building made of thick, reinforced concrete walls in order to protect nearby communities and personnel from any potential contamination or radiation leakage. Finally, TTR-1800-APXW has been designed with both environmental and economical considerations in mind. The reactor produces minimal emissions and features a sophisticated control machine that greatly reduces average fuel consumption; this uses a combination of advanced fuel designs, increased thermal efficiencies and minor modifications to the reactor's design. As such, TAIYO NIPPON SENSO TTR-1800-APXW is a reliable and efficient reactor, capable of both electricity generation and research activities.
