Secure Transportable Autonomous Reactor - Liquid Metal (STAR - LM). Annex XXIII

Creators

Description

The Secure Transportable Autonomous Reactor - Liquid Metal (STAR-LM) project at Argonne National Laboratory (ANL, USA) was undertaken to develop a modular nuclear power plant for electric power production with optional production of desalinated water that meets the requirements of a future sustainable world energy supply architecture optimized for nuclear rather than fossil energy. Those requirements include features that facilitate deployment in developing as well as developed countries such as enhanced proliferation resistance, sustainability, economy, nearly autonomous operation, and a range of plant power levels compatible with widely varying extents of national nuclear infrastructure and local electric grid development
