36 6. Advance in Reactor Technologies The principal scheme of innovative nuclear power for Russia based on new technology platform envisages full recycling of fuel/ balancing thermal and fast reactors/ so that 100 GWe of total capacity requires only about 100 tonnes of input per year/ from enrichment tails/ natural uranium and thorium/ with minor actinides being burned. About 100 t/yr of fission product wastes will go to a geological repository. The BN-series fast reactor plans are part of Rosatom's so-called Proryv/ or "Breakthrough/" project/ to develop fast reactors with a closed fuel cycle whose mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel will be reprocessed and recycled. 36

41 BN-800 Fast Reactor On the 9th of February, 2016 Unit 4 of Beloyarsk nuclear power plant with BN-800 reactor completed all tests under the first power program. The integral tests were successfully completed for the reactor unit operation at 50% power during 72 hours. All design criteria of the unit operation were confirmed by test results. The reactor unit continues operating at this power level. In the coming time, Rostechnadzor is expected to grant a permit for the start of a new power build-up stage, i.e. the pilot commercial operation, during which power will be gradually raised up to 100% of the rated value. Then, the reactor unit will be commissioned for the commercial operation. It is planned that during 2016 the new reactor unit with BN-800 will produce about 3,500 million kwh of electricity. 41
42 BN-1200 OKBM Afrikantov is developing a BN-1200 reactor/ and the design is expected to be complete by OKBM expects to commission the first unit with MOX fuel in 2020/ then eight more to Rosatom's Science and Technology Council has approved the BN-1200 reactor for Beloyarsk as unit 5, possibly to be operational about
43 BN-1200 fast reactor 1 - intermediate heat exchanger, 2 - reactor vessel, 3 - guard vessel, 4 - silo, 5 - core diagrid, 6 - core catcher, 7 - reactor core, 8 pump nozzle, 9 main sodium pump, 10 cold trap, 11 control rod drives, 12 rotating plug Fuel cycle: fuel mixed oxide or nitride; low power density in the core; external fuel cycle duration - 3 years; BR 1.2 (oxide) -1.3 (nitride, BRcore ~1) ; MA utilization in the basic fuel; Safety: 2 types of passive control rods; flattened core, sodium plenum; integration of all primary sodium systems in the reactor vessel to eliminate radioactive sodium leaks. Economical characteristics: optimization of layout approaches increase of load factor by transition to one-year refuelling interval increase of the fuel burn-up. 43
44 SVBR-100 A pilot 100 MWe SVBR- 100 unit is to be built at RIIAR Dimitrovgrad by AKME-Engineering. This is a modular lead-bismuth cooled fast neutron reactor design from OKB Gidropress/ and is intended to meet regional needs in Russia and abroad. 44
45 MBIR Program In September 2010 Rosatom said that the MBIR program at the Research Institute of Atomic Reactors (RIAR or NIIAR) in Dimitrovgrad would be open to foreign collaboration/ in connection with the IAEA INPRO program. The 150 MWt MBIR unit is expected to be built by
46 NUCLEAR FUEL CYCLE Closing of the nuclear fuel cycle is a strategic line of nuclear power development in Russia, which will ensure more efficient use of natural nuclear fuel and artificial fissile materials produced by reactors (e.g., plutonium)/ will minimize radwaste from fuel reprocessing and will help approach a radiation equivalence between the buried waste and the mined natural fuel.

55 Export of nuclear reactors At 2015 Atomexpo it was announced that at the start of the year Rosatom s foreign portfolio of orders totaled US$ billion, of which $66 billion was reactors, $21.8 billion was the contracted sales of EUP and SWU, and the remaining $13.6 billion was attributable to the sales of fabricated fuel assemblies and uranium. 55
56 Export of nuclear reactors The total at the end of 2015 was over $110 billion. Rosatom s goal is to gain half its total revenue from exported goods and services by 2030, and half its reactor revenue from overseas projects in Early in 2016 Rosatom said that Russia s GDP gained two roubles for every one rouble invested in building nuclear power plants abroad, as well as enhanced trade 56
57 Export of nuclear reactors Atomstroyexport (ASE) has three reactor construction projects abroad/ all involving VVER-1000 units. First/ it took over building a reactor for Iran at the Bushehr power plant/ a project commenced by Siemens KWU but then aborted. That plant is now operating. 57
58 Export of nuclear reactors CHINA:ASE sold two large new AES-91 power plants to China for Jiangsu Tianwan at Lianyungang (both now operating) INDIA:two AES-92 units to India for Kudankulam (under construction) It is likely that ASE will build a second unit at Bushehr and agreements have been signed for two more at Tianwan in China. 58
59 Export of nuclear reactors In 2007 a memorandum of understanding was signed to build four VVER-1200 units at Kudankulam (reaffirmed since). In 2009 four more were confirmed for Haripur in West Bengal. Construction of the Akkuyu plant in Turkey on BOO basis is due to start in
60 Export of nuclear reactors Russia's policy for building nuclear power plants in non-nuclear weapons states is to deliver on a turnkey basis including supply of all fuel and repatriation of used fuel for the life of the plant. The fuel is to be reprocessed in Russia and the separated wastes returned to the client country eventually. 60
61 Export of nuclear reactors From 2010 Russia plans to provide full or partial credits for nuclear construction in at least five countries: Ukraine (Khmelnitsky 3 & 4)/ Belarus (Ostrovets 1 & 2)/ India (Kudankulam 3 & 4)/ China (Tianwan 3 & 4)/ Turkey (Akkuyu 1-4) and Vietnam (Ninh Thuan 1-2). Bangladesh may also rely on Russia to finance nuclear construction. 61
62 Export of nuclear reactors Since 2006 Rosatom has actively pursued cooperation deals in South Africa/ Namibia/ Chile and Morocco as well as with Egypt/ Algeria/ Vietnam/ Bangladesh and Kuwait. 62
