SVBR-100 reactor plant

 

Modular NPP, nuclear cogeneration plants of various power in the immediate vicinity of towns

Coastal and offshore NPP, nuclear cogeneration plants, nuclear desalination facilities without on-site refueling

Renovation of decommissioned light water reactor NPP Units

 

The innovative low-power SVBR-100 reactor plant is a result of conversion of a unique Russian technology of naval lead-bismuth cooled reactors.

The SVBR-100 reactor plant is designed to be used as a part of regional energy sources of various power and purpose, that are placed in the immediate vicinity of populated areas.

Main features of SVBR-100 reactor plant:

  • Fast reactor
  • Chemically inert heavy liquid-metal coolant – eutectic lead-bismuth alloy;
  • Integral primary circuit layout;
  • Capability to use various types of nuclear fuel;
  • Long-term operation without refueling (from 7 to 15 years);
  • Capability of operation in closed nuclear fuel cycle;
  • Capability of multi-purpose use: generation of electric and heat energy, desalination, use as a part of industrial plants.
