HISTRY
THE IDEA OF BUILDING FNPP WAS FIRST PUT FORWARD IN 1969 BY RICHARD
RUSSIAN MINISTER FOR ATOMIC ENERGY WAS AGREED 30 NOVEMBER 2000
START DESIGNING OF A FNPP IN 2001
INTRODUCTION
‘ACADEMIC LOMONOSOV’ IS THE NAME OF WORLD’S FIRST FLOATING NUCLEAR POWER PLANT(FNPP)
THE PROJECT WAS LAUNCHED IN APRIL 2007 AT SEVMASH
FIRST FNPP IS EXPECTED TO BE READY BY 2012.
AROUND THE WORLD MORE THAN 15 COUNTRY INTERESTED TO BUY THIS TYPE OF FNPP.
ABOUT FNPP
TO BE EQUIPPED WITH TWO POWER UNITS USING KLT-40C REACTORS.
COST OF ELECTRICITY: JUST 5 OR 6 CENTS PER KILOWATT
EVERY 12 YEAR THE PLANT WILL BE TAKEN TO RUSSIA FOR OVERHAUL.
WILL HAVE A LIFESPAN OF 40 YEARS
DESIGN OF FNPP PROJECT
1 - Living area 2 - NPP operating room 3 - Reactors 4 - Steam turbine installation 5 - Power generation area 6 - Storage area for spent fuel
SPECIFICATIONS OF FNPP
LENGTH(M): 140
WIDTH(M): 30
BOARD HEIGHT(M): 10
REACTOR UNIT: KLT-40C
NO. OF REACTOR UNITS: 2
ELECTRICAL POWER(MW) : 2*35
BASIC IDEA OF KLT-40C
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION OF REACTOR
TYPE OF REACTOR IS KLT-40C.
PRESSURISED LIGHT WATER REACTOR
STEAM GENERATION: 240 TONS/HOUR
STEAM PRESSURE: 3.8 MPa
FUEL LOAD(U-235): 996KG (608 DAYS)
SAFETY FACILITICS OF REACTOR
FACILITIES TO CONTROL AND SHUTDOWN A REACTOR
FACILITIES TO COOL A REACTOR
FACILITIES TO CONTAIN RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS BY BARRIERS
CAPACITY OF FNPP
FNPP GENERATE 70 MW WHICH IS SUFFICIENT TO SUPPLY 2,00,000 PEOPLE.
WILL ALSO ABEL TO SUPPLY DESALINATE SEAWATER.
ON DESALINATION MODE IT PRODUCE 2,40,000 CIBIC METERS OF FRESH WATER A DAY.
ALSO, SAVE UP TO 2,00,000 METRIC TONS OF COAL
ALSO, SAVE 1,00,000 TONS OF FUEL OIL
FUTURE PROBLEM
BY TERRORISM AND ATTACK - ROBBERY - MISSILE - TOPEDO
BY NATURE - EARTHQUAKE - TSUNAMI - TEMPERATURE CHANGES - HARSH WEATHER CONDITIONS
ADVANTAGES OF FNPP
SOLVE PROBLEM OF ELECTRICITY
AND RESOLVE PROBLEM OF WATER
MOBILE NATURE
EASE OF TRANSPORT AND STOCKPILING OF FUEL
DOSE NOT PRODUCE AIR POLLUTION
