美国第一核能公司提交监管计划,朝着小型模块化反应堆建设许可迈出重要一步

-- 第一美国核能公司(First American Nuclear)周三表示,已向美国核管理委员会(NRC)提交了其EAGL-1小型模块化反应堆的监管沟通计划。 这家核电公司兼快谱小型模块化反应堆开发商表示,此举标志着公司与NRC的申请前沟通正式启动,也是获得建造许可证的重要里程碑。 EAGL-1的设计符合NRC现行的许可规定,第一美国核能公司称,这是其区别于其他先进反应堆设计的显著特点。 该公司表示,在许可审批过程中,客户将立即获得燃气电力供应,直至完整的核系统交付,且转换成本极低。 该公司将EAGL-1描述为液态金属快堆,也是美国唯一采用铅铋合金冷却的核反应堆。选择铅铋合金是因为其热性能优于液态钠,且不会像液态钠那样与空气或水发生反应,从而既降低了成本,又提高了安全性。
