Used GEMINI II #293656753 for sale

GEMINI II is a nuclear reactor designed and sold by GEH, a subsidiary of General Electric. It is a Generation III+ light water reactor with a unique and advanced direct vessel injection extraction (DVI-E) equipment and a simplified active cooling system. II reactors are pressurized water reactors (PWRs) built with a traditional light water design, which is a standard water-moderated reactor core surrounded by a sealed pressure vessel. The DVI-E unit uses direct vessel cleansing, which is a process that circulates fresh water directly through the pressure vessel. This allows the fresh water to flush out the impurities from the vessel. The active cooling machine simplifies the power plant operation by using the primary heat transfer and generation systems to simultaneously cool and produce electricity. The thermal efficiency of GEMINI II tool is further enhanced by increased steam turbine by-pass flow control. The reactor is designed to produce up to 1,356 megawatts of electricity (MWe) and it has a lifetime operating efficiency of more than 93%. It has an advanced turbine technology that is designed for integration with the other components of the asset. II incorporates technological advances in safety and control systems that enable it to have a lower potential for a fragmentation event, an event in which reactor fuel is exposed and could cause an accident. The reactor is manufactured using state of the art forging techniques and has more air tight components than comparable PWRs. The seal tolerances are designed to enable a tight power output at full power. The safety systems in GEMINI II are specifically designed for safe shutdown and restart operations. The model also utilizes advanced active core monitoring technology to maintain core temperature, which is the most important factor in determining the reactor's ability to optimize the power output. In terms of fuel, II equipment utilizes high enriched uranium fuel assemblies and is optimized for a fuel load of about 400 assemblies. The reactor has been approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for operation in multiple international markets. GEMINI II is certified to withstand seismic activity and other harsh environmental conditions. II is an excellent example of GEH's commitment to providing efficient and safe nuclear technology. By continuously developing new features and technologies, GEMINI II offers a stable, reliable, and efficient power generation solution. The reactor is designed to create fewer green house gases compared to traditional power plants and is an ideal choice for new large-scale or industrial power applications.
