Description
The development of state-of-the-art safety systems for light water reactors is described. Attention is paid to the project of the PIUS (Process Inherent Ultimate Safe) reactor, developed in the 1970s by the Swedish ASEA-Atom company, the Westinghouse AP 600 pressurized water reactor with improved passive and inherent safety, and the simplified boiling water reactor (SBWR) by General Electric. Projects of high-temperature reactors and of modular sodium cooled reactors as well as projects involving the use of unconventional fuels are also dealt with. (Z.S.). 1 tab., 7 figs
