vadim lemikhov, general designer of the proryv project direction.cipated in its development, now he controls the construction of the facility at all key stages, and talks about the idea of ​​fast reactors. neutrons appeared back in the eighties of the last century. scientists in europe, the usa, and japan worked on projects, but it was russia that not only put such installations into operation, but also approached the creation of a fourth-generation nuclear energy system. this is the first object so far in a world that is created precisely according to these classical principles, that is, it is safety, that is, there is no need to evacuate the population, it is full fuel use, it is radiation-equivalent waste management. this is a contribution to the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and cost-effective solutions, that is, these requirements must be fulfilled within the framework of the breakthrough direction project. the working name of the brest installation is an abbreviation, fast reactors of natural safety with lead coolant, an experimental sa

according to the project, proryv is building an energy complex, which, without unnecessary pathos , is important for the entire world energy sector. it feels like something out of a story about a perpetual motion machine; in order to operate nuclear power plants, you need to mine and enrich uranium, but uranium 238 is found mainly in nature, which used to be little used before its appearance. uranium 238 , which is not involved in fission and energy generation processes, turns into plutonium, which in turn is fissioned, that is, in fast neutron reactors it is possible to involve approximately 100 times more uranium in the fuel cycle than in conventional thermal reactors . increasing the resource base by 100 times is still half the battle. the goal is to close the nuclear fuel cycle so that it can be used again after reprocessing. for this purpose , an experimental demonstration energy complex is being built in the city of seversk. now the commissioning of fuel production equipment is underway, after which this fuel enters the reactor, the stage of completion of which you can also see,

according to the project, proryv is building an energy complex, which, without unnecessary pathos, isortant for the entire world energy sector. it feels like something out of a story about a perpetual motion machine; in order to operate nuclear power plants , uranium needs to be mined and enriched, but uranium 238 is mainly found in nature, which was previously little used before the advent of nuclear reactors. fast neutrons. uranium 238, which is not involved. in the processes of fission and energy generation, they are converted into plutonium, which in turn is divided, that is, in fast neutron reactors it is possible to involve approximately 100 times more uranium in the fuel cycle than in conventional thermal reactors, increasing the resource base in 100 times is still half the battle, the task is to close the nuclear fuel cycle so that after reprocessing it can be used again, for this purpose the city of seversk is building an experiment for a demonstration power plant. it's on now commissioning of fuel production equipment, after which this fuel enters the reactor, which the stag

future, and this will be the first of the objects of the experimental demonstration complex of the proryvl four production lines has now been completed. specialists at the ladder once again check everyone’s work device and perform the necessary tests. the site is at the finish line of comprehensive testing, comprehensive testing will end in the near future, we will begin work on simulators. the breakthrough project will use a mixture of uranium plutonium nitrides, abbreviated as snoop. this fuel is denser, which is more profitable. samples are being processed on one of the production lines. i have aluminum oxide in my hands, why was this material chosen? in this form, we use it as a model powder for testing manufacturing technologies. elements of nuclear fuel of a new generation, then there will be snoop, a mixture of nitrite, uranium , plutonium fuel, at the moment practically no one in the world has used this fuel on such a scale, that’s why we call it an experimental demonstration energy complex, the first of its kind in the world. each tablet weighs no more than 3 g. experts evaluate
