Conference Article: Status of the new nuclear energy systems study in CIAE
D. Ding, Z. Luo, M. XuAbstract
The nuclear energy civil-application has been started in China. To meet the long-term sustainable primary energy supply it could be envisaged that the nuclear power systems will be developed in large scale. Following three key points must be satisfied by the future nuclear energy systems:
- more safer nuclear energy systems than recent those should be developed to decrease the risk of core-melten and unforeseen release of radioactive materials;
- long lived minor actinides and long lived fission products must be safely treated to assure a proper environment;
- uranium resource should be sufficiently utilized.
