Assuming that "water“ is needed, became 173 results found.

South Africans could soon use answers and training on nuclear power. (...) Even the experimental reactor in Jülich was not spared from accidents. In 1978 there was a water leak in which 25.000 liters of water entered the reactor core via the helium cooling circuit. Critics claim that an explosion would have occurred if the reactor had a higher temperature...
THTR Circular No. 88 February 04
On December 1, 12, the reactor became critical for the first time. "The tests of the hot gas systems were successfully completed and the drying of the ceramic reactor internals is well advanced. 2000 kg of water were removed. The HTR-103 initially works with a steam generator circuit, but plans have already begun to convert the reactor into a single-circuit system with a direct helium turbine "...

"M. Nurdin showed a special Indonesian interest in the better exploitation of oil fields with HTR steam, but also in coal gasification and liquefaction, combined heat and power and seawater desalination." The nuclear cooperation of the Jülich Research Center with Indonesia is also reflected in a dissertation written by Lasman As Natio in March 1992...
Nuclear propaganda is most likely also paid for by taxpayers, because the operator of the homepage is HKG, which, as we know, is bankrupt and keeps itself afloat with government subsidies. But it also shows that the HTR line will be an important project for the nuclear industry in the future and that it does not want to leave the field to us alone. In the...
The incident at the THTR in May 1986 in 'Spiegel'
the high-temperature reactor designed three decades ago by the German physicist and Heisenberg student Rudolf Schulten. The idea promised a whole range of economic and safety advantages compared to the light water reactors otherwise commonly used: While conventional reactors are regularly shut down to replace the spent fuel...
List of incidents at THTR - collected by Horst Blume
January 24.01.1986, 45: Reactor shutdown with NK 01.02.1986. Cause: incorrect shutdown of an electrical rail. 45/07.02.1986/45: Reactor shutdown with NK 26.02.1986. Cause: Reducing the amount of feed water manually and triggering a protection criterion. February XNUMX, XNUMX: Reactor shutdown with NK XNUMX. Cause: Loss of protection when switching from self-supply to public network. February XNUMX, XNUMX: Failure of...

The FZJ still has big plans: "The NACOK experimental facility will be used for further experiments with international cooperation in the future." SEAT (Automatic separation of water drops) This wind tunnel system, which consists of a flow circuit, was also designed, built and installed at least eight years ago at the FZJ's Institute for Safety Research and Reactor Technology (ISK)...
lives in great poverty. The neoliberal policies of the former liberation front led to the gap between rich and poor widening for the first time since 1975. The privatization of water supply led to price increases of up to 600 percent (5). Many families had their water cut off and cholera broke out. Electricity bills and mortgages can no longer...

with the planned HTR goes: "RWE NUKEM – PBMR: Still In the Running." In South Africa itself, RWE is already well known and notorious: Due to the company's entry into the global water supply market and the privatization of the water supply in South Africa, many poorer people there can no longer pay for water, which is now greatly overpriced, so that diseases...

In March 1999, the North Rhine-Westphalia Ministry for Economic Affairs and Small Business, Technology and Transport reported: "Radioactively contaminated water has been found in the concrete chamber system of the decommissioned AVR experimental reactor in Jülich. (...) The measured specific activity in the concrete chamber water, largely caused by the radionuclide strontium 90, is 80 becquerels per liter at a...

2005 2004 2003 2002 *** THTR Newsletter No. 106, April 2006 Incident at the Koeberg nuclear power plant in South Africa: Not sabotage, but frightening normality! In Koeberg near Cape Town, two pressurized water reactors, each with an output of 1984 MW, have been in operation since 900. Really? Hardly any now. The power plant site, where a high-temperature reactor is to be added in the next few years, has now...

still exists for many hundreds of thousands of years. – That’s terrible and so completely new! The ISR has a nice suggestion ready, at least in terms of volume: By using it in a light water reactor (which, please, cannot be shut down), the original plutonium mass is reduced by 50% and is therefore more manageable, although the radioactivity remains. Big problems like...
the AVR Jülich with a nominal output of 15 megawatts went into operation. The AVR supposedly worked perfectly until around 13 tons of water seeped into the reactor during the AVR accident from May 22th to 1978nd, 25...?! Construction work on the THTR-300 in Hamm/Uentrop began in 1970 and was actually supposed to be finished 5 years later, but it turned out to be 15 years. As the preliminary...
