Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'The development of GENERATION IV nuclear systems is identified as an important objective of the present Euratom work programme. The significant support given in FP5 and FP6 allowed Europe to acquire strong assets in the technology of one of the 6 GENERATION IV reactor types, the (V)HTR. In line with these assets and with the recommendation of the Sustainable Nuclear Energy Technology Platform, which points out high temperature industrial process heat applications of nuclear energy as one of 3 major axes of development recommended for European nuclear R&D, the EUROPAIRS project proposes a step forward towards industrial application of (V)HTR technology: the objective of EUROPAIRS is to identify the boundary conditions for the viability of nuclear cogeneration systems connected to conventional industrial processes and to initiate the partnership of nuclear organisations and end-user industries, which would be deployed in a further step to develop a Demonstrator coupling a (V)HTR with industrial processes (the boundary condition framework defines technical, industrial, economical, licensing and safety requirements for the nuclear system, the processes that can consume the energy generated, and the coupling system). For that purpose, 1) A strong partnership of nuclear industrial and R&D organisations with process heat user industries, which is absolutely needed, will be built, based on the joint participation of nuclear and heat end-user partners. The implementation of the project will allow a better understanding of these two communities through mutual information, as well as a sharing of the objectives and of the development programme for the demonstrator. 2) Boundary conditions for nuclear cogeneration will be defined from the points of view of technical feasibility, industrial practicability, licensing acceptability (with the input of Regulator and TSO partners), sustainability and economic competitiveness. The critical issues will be identified, solutions of viable coupling schemes will be proposed and R&D needs pointed out. 3) A roadmap for designing and constructing a demonstrator will be elaborated, including the developments needed for the reactor, the heat transport system and the process heat applications, as well as the R&D and qualification actions required in support of this programme. A schedule will be proposed as well as an estimation of the costs and a sketch of the business case for further industrial deployment.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
The objective of the EU-funded Project was to prepare conditions for the development of a European industrial demonstrator of the coupling of a (V)HTR in a power cogeneration (heat and electricity) mode with process heat applications. Such new application of nuclear energy would allow saving large quantities of fossil fuel resources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions of industry.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
New nuclear power systems such as very high temperature reactors ((V)HTRs) have the potential to generate safe and efficient power in the form of heat and electricity. Coupling such a system with conventional industrial processes can save on fossil fuel use and considerably reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The EU-funded EUROPAIRS project was established to investigate the technical and economic boundary conditions of this coupling concept. The project received input from nuclear and process industries, as well as from researchers working on (V)HTR technologies.
Team members investigated the capabilities of (V)HTR as a heat source for industrial processes, as well as specific end-user requirements. They also investigated economic, legal and safety issues around the development of this so-called nuclear cogeneration model.
The information produced was then used to develop a demonstration model, which showed that the concept was economically and technologically viable in the medium term. Another output from the project was a roadmap for the communication and future deployment of the nuclear cogeneration strategy.
EUROPAIRS concluded that with relatively little technological development, nuclear cogeneration is a feasible and desirable strategy for power and heat generation. The next step will be to develop an industrial prototype for testing purposes.
