The world's first high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant reactor pressure vessel was successfully hoisted

On March 20, the pressure vessel of the reactor of the demonstration project of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant in Rongcheng Shidaowan in Shandong Province was successfully hoisted into place
.
It is reported that the nuclear power plant is currently the world's first 200,000-kilowatt high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant
with the safety characteristics of the fourth-generation nuclear energy system.

High-temperature gas-cooled reactor has the characteristics of inherent safety, high power generation efficiency and wide use, and Shidao Bay high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant has been listed as a major national project
.
As the core equipment of the first circuit of the nuclear island, the reactor pressure vessel completed this time is 27.
5 meters high and has a net weight of 594 tons, which is currently the largest and heaviest reactor pressure vessel in the world, and it is also the largest single weight equipment
of the high-temperature reactor gas-cooled nuclear power plant.

In order to ensure the smooth lifting of the pressure vessel in place, the construction personnel of the Shidao Bay High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor Project Department of China Nuclear Construction actively prepared, carefully planned and simulated the drill
in advance.
The successful lifting of the pressure vessel in place has laid the foundation for the installation of the main equipment of the demonstration project of the high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant, and also accelerated the pace
of high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power technology to the world.
