Description

Major part of the fusion tritium system will be verified with ITER and its decades of operation experiences. The first part of this paper reports this challenging technology task. Toward the DEMO plant that will actually generate energy and operate its closed fuel cycle, breeding blanket and power train that caries high temperature and pressure media from the fusion device to generation system will be the major addition. The latter part of the paper reviews the tritium technology that can be extrapolated from ITER. (orig.)
