Book excerpt: Several different methods have been developed for selecting sites for nuclear power plants. This report summarizes the basic assumptions and formal requirements of each method and evaluates conditions under which each is correctly applied to power plant siting problems. It also describes conditions under which different siting methods can produce different results. Included are criteria for evaluating the skill with which site-selection methods have been applied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication provides information on detailed methodologies and examples in the application of volcanic hazard assessment to site evaluation for nuclear installations, thereby addressing the recommendations in IAEA Safety Standards Series No. SSG-21, Volcanic Hazards in Site Evaluation for Nuclear Installations. It demonstrates the practicability of evaluating the recommendations through a systematic volcanic hazard assessment and examples from Member States. The results of this hazard assessment can be used to derive the appropriate design bases and operational considerations for specific nuclear installations.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strong trend of returning to nuclear power is evident in different places in the world. Forty-five countries are planning to add nuclear power to their grids and more than 66 nuclear power plants are under construction. Nuclear power plants that generate electricity and steam need to improve safety to become more acceptable to governments and the public. One novel practical solution to increase nuclear power plants' safety factor is to build them away from urban areas, such as offshore or underground. To date, Land-Based siting is the dominant option for siting all commercial operational nuclear power plants. However, the literature reveals several options for building nuclear power plants in safer sitings than Land-Based sitings. The alternatives are several and each has advantages and disadvantages, and it is difficult to distinguish among them and choose the best for a specific project. In this research, we recall the old idea of using the alternatives of offshore and underground sitings for new nuclear power plants and propose a tool to help in choosing the best siting technology. This research involved the development of a decision model for evaluating several potential nuclear power plant siting technologies, both those that are currently available and future ones. The decision model was developed based on the Hierarchical Decision Modeling (HDM) methodology. The model considers five major dimensions, social, technical, economic, environmental, and political (STEEP), and their related criteria and sub-criteria. The model was designed and developed by the author, and its elements' validation and evaluation were done by a large number of experts in the field of nuclear energy. The decision model was applied in evaluating five potential siting technologies and ranked the Natural Island as the best in comparison to Land-Based, Floating Plant, Artificial Island, and Semi-Embedded plant.

Book excerpt: The report presents the criteria and methodology for evaluating the siting of a nuclear power plant at Radford Army Ammunition Plant (RAAP) near Radford, VA. A detailed plant design is described utilizing the Process Energy Consolidated Nuclear Steam Generator (PE-CNSG) concept developed by the Babcokck and Wilcox Co. The PE-CNSG is a 313 MWt pressurized water reactor with 12 modular once through steam generators located inside the pressure vessel. For this application it has been configured to export 570,000 lb/hr of steam and 23 MW of electricity. Three candidate sites at Radford were evaluated and one site was selected as having the most favorable overall characteristics. This site was further evaluated and found to viable based on supporting data. An economic analysis was performed comparing the PE-CNSG to an equivalent coal-fired plant. The report concludes that at the expected utilization level of 45% of full mobilization requirements the nuclear system has a slight economic advantage versus the coal system. This advantage is increased at higher levels of production. No technological or sociological barriers which would preclude the implementation of the nuclear system were identified.
