3. CRESCE LA CONCENTRAZIONE DI CO2 IN ATMOSFERA La concentrazione di CO 2 è arrivata a 385 ppm nel 2008 , la più alta negli ultimi due milioni di anni, + 38% rispetto a quella dell’era preindustriale (era circa 280 ppm nel 1750). Classifica emissioni: 13. Italia 5. Giappone 4. Russia 3. India 2. Stati Uniti 1.Cina
4. Nel 2008 è rallentata la crescita delle emissioni mondiali di CO2: +2%(+ 3,4% media preced.) Nel 2009 è prevista una riduzione delle emissioni mondiali di CO2 del 2,9%.

52. Corrente prodotta [1] Nel 2007 l’energia elettrica mondiale prodotta da nucleare è stata pari a 2.600 Terawattora, ovvero il 14% del totale, nel 2006 era il 15% (2.793 TWh), nel 2005 il 16%; se invece parliamo di energia primaria, la percentuale nucleare scende al 6% circa. E’ molto meno di quando produce l’idroelettrico. [1] “Energy, Electricity and Nuclear Power Estimates for the Period up to 2030”, IAEA, settembre 2008.

When talking about nuclear reactor designs, it’s becoming common to refer to them in terms of generations Gen I: Early prototype reactors of the 1950’s and 60’s Gen II: Vast majority of reactors currently operating around the world: Western designed LWRs (PWRs and BWRs), the Canadian heavy water moderated reactors (CANDU), and Russian designed reactors Gen III: so called advanced LWRs developed through mid-90’s; they have been built so far only in Asia (to my knowledge) and are evolutionary advances Gen III+: Further evolutionary improvements targeting mainly better economics Gen IV: Future Generation systems; goal of the R&D is for these systems to be …
The different reactor types I just described are the ones in current use around the world (Generation II reactors) … Now consider What are the advances targeted and incorporated in the newer Generation III and higher designs Economics Reduced capital cost Faster construction reduces finance costs : modularization usually allows greater portion of the component or system to be built in a factor for assembly at the site Safety Passive means used for safety systems involves use of natural phenomena and intrinsic characteristics of the system Includes expansion of compressed gas, batteries and other “reliable” energy storage devices Examples of active equipment: pumps, fans, chillers, or diesel generators Severe accidents are those deemed so unlikely they are beyond the design basis
Marketed by Westinghouse Two loop PWR; passive safety functions provided without pumps, fans, diesel motors, chillers or other machinery Passive safety without pumps, fans, diesel motors, chillers or other machinery A few simple valves align the passive safety systems when they are automatically actuated. In most cases, these valves are “fail safe.” They require power to stay in their normal, closed position. Loss of power causes them to open into their safety alignment. In all cases, their movement is made using stored energy from springs, compressed gas or batteries. Passive systems include safety injection (SI), residual heat removal (RHR), and containment cooling (PCCS). Safety Injection: Incorporates four sources of passive injection following a loss of coolant accident (LOCA): (1) accumulators, which provide high flow for several minutes; (2) core makeup tanks, which provide relatively high flow for longer durations; (3) in-containment refueling water storage tank (IRWST), which provides a lower flow for a much longer time; and (4) provisions for containment recirculation. Containment recirculation initiates when the recirculation line valves open and the flood level is sufficiently high. The IRWST is a low-pressure source that injects only after the reactor coolant system (RCS) is depressurized by the automatic depressurization system (ADS). All safety systems meet NRC requirements including single failure criteria, TMI-related lessons learned, and unresolved and generic safety issues. Elimination of the pump shaft seals greatly simplifies the auxiliary fluid systems that support a canned motor pump, reduces required maintenance and eliminates possible accidents involving seal failures. Integration of the pump suction into the bottom of the steam generator channel head: eliminates the crossover leg of coolant loop piping; reduces the loop pressure drop; simplifies the foundation and support system for the steam generator, pumps, and piping; and eliminates the potential for uncovering the core during a small LOCA.
Le 2 e EPR à être construit dans le monde 100 e réacteur à être construit par AREVA Pour le scope AREVA L’installation d’AREVA sur le site de Flamanville se poursuit, 2 personnes sur le site. Fabrication des composants, tels la cuve et les générateurs de vapeur, est en bonne voie Certains des composants qui seront incorporés à la première phase du béton, comme les ancrages primaires ou les tubes pour capteurs d’instrumentation, ont été livrés sur le site en début d’année. Côté EDF; les travaux de génie civil avancent, sur l’îlot nucléaire, la construction de la « coque avion » progresse et atteint désormais 24 m de haut. La fabrication des piscines a également démarré.
