Issue 15/2017 - The world's first HTGR fuel element production line achieves industrial-scale conversion

The world's first high-temperature gas-cooled reactor fuel element production line achieved industrial-scale transformation A few days ago, the world's first industrial-scale high-temperature gas-cooled reactor fuel element production line The 200,000th spherical fuel element was successfully rolled off the production line in Baotou, and China's high-temperature gas-cooled reactor component manufacturing realized the direct transformation
from the experimental line to the industrial-scale production line, marking that China's high-temperature gas-cooled reactor component manufacturing level has been in the forefront of the world, which is of
。
The fuel element production line of the demonstration project of high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant is an important sub-topic and core supporting project of the national major high-temperature reactor sub-project
of large-scale advanced pressurized water reactor and high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant.
The annual output capacity is 300,000 spherical fuel elements, providing fuel components
for the 200,000-kilowatt high-temperature gas-cooled reactor demonstration power station in Shidao Bay, Shandong, Huaneng Shandong.
The production line is based on the spherical fuel element manufacturing technology of Tsinghua University, and is the world's first industrial-scale fuel element production line
with the characteristics of the fourth generation nuclear technology with independent intellectual property rights in China.
