Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors

On-line Combinations of Pressurized Hot-Water Extraction and Microporous Membrane Liquid–Liquid Extraction with Chromatography

298 Introduction Environmental and biological analyses are especially challenging for the analyst because sample matrices tend to be very complex and the analytes are present at very low levels. Selective and sensitive methods are needed for both sample preparation and analysis. Typically, extraction and clean-up are needed in the sample preparation, and the analyses are performed by chromatogr...

Pressurized Water Reactor Modelling with Modelica

In order to optimize and validate the design and the operation of its nuclear power plants facilities, EDF (Electricité de France) uses a proprietary tool called LEDA to perform static and dynamic simulation at the system level. EDF wishes to replace LEDA by state-of-the-art off-the-shelf tools, mainly to reduce maintenance cost while keeping up with the latest trend in modeling and simulation ...

Core Loading Design for Bushehr Pressurized Water Reactor

The modified out-in fuel management strategy was applied to the core loading design for the first four cycles of the Bushehr (Iran-1) KWU designed Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). The minimum peak-to-average power density was chosen as the objective function of the optimization process. Lattice homogenization and group constants generation were performed by using the LEOPARD computer code. For ...

Water decontamination by polyoxometalate-functionalized 3D-printed hierarchical porous devices.

The design of organic-inorganic hybrid composites has revolutionized application-driven materials design. Here, we show how hierarchically structured, 3D-printed ABS polymers can be surface-functionalized with lacunary polyoxometalate anions ([α-PW9O34]9-) featuring heavy-metal binding sites. The resulting composite is highly porous and can be used for the removal of transition-metal pollutants...
