Description

The efforts of Italian industry in the field of components for fast sodium power plants are presented. The main components involved are steam generators, sodium/air heat exchangers and large sodium valves. The development work carried out for these components is outlined and the main realizations are presented. A brief account is also given of the current situation of sodium plants supporting the development of these components. Research on materials and the development of special sodium components are also reported upon. (author)
