Nuclear Reactor Technology Development and Utilization

Advances in Nuclear Reactor Technology Development and Utilization: Fuel cycles, advanced reactors and hybrid systems presents the theory and principles of the most common advanced nuclear reactor systems and provides a context for the value and utilization of nuclear power in a variety of applications both inside and outside a traditional nuclear setting. As countries across the globe realize their plans for a sustainable energy future, the need for innovative nuclear reactor design is increasing, and this book will provide a deep understanding of how these technologies can aid in a region's goal for clean and reliable energy. Dr Khan and Dr Nakhabov, alongside their team of expert contributors, discuss a variety of important topics, including nuclear fuel cycles, plant decommissioning and hybrid energy systems, while considering a variety of diverse uses such as nuclear desalination, hydrogen generation and radioisotope production. Knowledge acquired enables the reader to conduct further research in academia and industry, and apply the latest design, development, integration, safety and economic guidance to their work and research. Combines reactor fundamentals with a contemporary look at evolving trends in the design of advanced reactors and their application to both nuclear and non-nuclear usesAnalyses the latest research and uses of hybrid systems which bring together nuclear technology with renewable energy technologiesPresents applications, economic factors and an analysis of sustainability factors in one comprehensive resource INDICE: Introduction to Nuclear Technology Yuri A.
