Advanced Smaller Modular Reactors

Více o knize

Advanced Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are explored as innovative solutions for safe and clean nuclear power, with varying sizes and technologies under development in the U.S. These reactors, ranging from a few megawatts to hundreds, can serve multiple purposes, including power generation and desalination. The book highlights the advantages of SMRs, such as reduced capital costs, flexibility in location, and enhanced safety measures. Additionally, it discusses the potential of GEN-IV nuclear power plants as efficient renewable energy sources, emphasizing their security and nonproliferation benefits.
