Chapter 781 Chapter 780: Special Robot
The project team led by Academician Liu is the most important and the least willing project to face in a commercial nuclear power plant.
- Standardized rescue process after a major damage accident.
The advantages of nuclear power plants are well known.
If you compare it with a thermal power station, a million-kilowatt thermal power station consumes about two million tons of electric coal a year.
So how many nuclear power plants are there?
One million kilowatts of nuclear power plants, at most once a year, need to replace fuel rods, about 30 tons.
The latter consumes only one in 66,000 of the former's fuel weight. At the same time, a thermal power plant burns down two million tons of electric coal a year, releasing about 50,000 tons of carbon dioxide, a little over 70,000 tons of sulphur dioxide and 15,000 tons of nitrogen oxide.
Where's the nuclear power plant?
Nuclear power plants do not emit these pollution because they do not burn coal at all. It only generates wastewater, which is mostly produced in a single circuit cooling system, which is normally collected and evaporated into a waste solid, which is then sealed and awaiting treatment.
Thermal power stations also require long downtime maintenance and cannot operate at full capacity for long periods of time. However, once the nuclear power plant is generated, it can operate at full capacity for a long period of time.
By comparison, let alone experts in the energy sector. The average citizen also knows what the benefits of nuclear power plants are.
Huaxia consumed nearly 4 billion tons of coal in energy last year, half of the world. And the thermal power station burns half of all the coal in Huaxia. These coal releases hundreds of millions of tons of pollutants, which are currently the main hazards of air pollution. He is also responsible for haze and respiratory diseases. If you switch to nuclear power, the air quality in Huaxia can rise several levels immediately.
The ideals are beautiful, the reality is cruel...
On 12 March 2011, RB's Fukushima nuclear power plant suffered an earthquake-affected nuclear spill that shocked the world. The accident struck hundreds of people in cold sweat in all countries around the world that had expectations of nuclear power plants.
The accident directly caused Switzerland to suspend approval of three new reactors. Germany was allowed to temporarily shut down seven nuclear power plants that had been operational since 1980, while all nuclear plants were subject to safety inspections. Let RB propose a "de-nuclearization target” with the intention of creating a new society without nuclear power plants.
At the same time, Italy and the United Kingdom announced reductions in nuclear power plants and a moratorium on nuclear power approval projects.
Huaxia was also greatly stimulated, directly shutting down all plans for the construction of nuclear power plants in that year...
If the world dares to play with nuclear power plants, counting them are just a handful of countries. Almost all of these countries, too, have had leaks while playing nuclear power. It's just that since Chernobyl, you've been very careful that there's not been a similar leak in total out of control.
Time is the best oblivion, and over time, national experts in nuclear research believe that advances in science and technology can keep situations like Chernobyl from happening. But 11 years of Fukushima completely smashed everyone's dreams.
Although the accident was caused mainly by the tsunami earthquake.
But which country can guarantee that its nuclear power plant will not be threatened by the earthquake tsunami? You know, most nuclear plants are built by the sea.
Once this occurs, hundreds of thousands of people are displaced and their health is seriously threatened. Large areas of land have been completely abandoned and deserted for thousands of years.
Even if there were no natural disasters, there would still be man-made disasters. If war breaks out between the two countries, who can guarantee not to attack nuclear power plants with red eyes?
Unfortunately, the ideals are beautiful and the reality is cruel...
In the aftermath of the Fukushima incident, States discovered the cessation of nuclear power plant programmes. It is also not responsible for the health of the population or future generations, nor is it in the economic interest to increase thermal power projects on a large scale today, when the environmental protection problem is growing.
There was no way for States to continue to study nuclear power with their noses pinched. However, after eating wisdom, Fukushima's global caution about nuclear power projects has reached an incredibly demanding level. Safety first, safety first, safety first...
This is the case with the project team led by Liu Academician, who assumed the heavy responsibility of rescuing standardized research after a major damage accident occurred at the nuclear power plant. When this set of rescue standards comes out, all nuclear power plants in Huaxia, in the event of a major accident, will first implement the program in accordance with uniform standards. This is another set of safety standards coming up after the Huaxia nuclear power plant.
It is also the last set to break the cauldrons and sink the boats after all safety standards are invalid.
Now they're experiencing a very difficult problem.
Disasters escalated after the Fukushima accident. In the process, there is actually a chance of salvation. But because rescuers have never been able to know exactly what's inside the reactor, many opportunities have been missed.
When rescuers were eager to observe the reactor's interior, the reactor's internal radiation intensity had reached its peak and if they entered, they would die within a minute. They had to build robots of all kinds, but powerful radiation, equally lethal to the electronics inside the robot. By the time they were trying to build a robot capable of withstanding 50 sieves of radiation, the internal radiation had reached 100. By the time they worked to create a robot that could withstand 80 sieves, the internal radiation had exceeded 500 sieves...
The robot went in and hung up before approaching the target. When the internal radiation dropped sharply, when the robot entered, it suddenly discovered that the core had disappeared. Because the core has melted through the pressure-resistant casing, through concrete and soil, drilling all the way into the groundwater layer.
Now they need a special robot that can withstand 200 sieves of irradiation and insist on working for two hours.
Assuming you have this robot, then this program, called "When You Execute It, You Can Die," by the domestic nuclear power industry, has the “artifact” that controls the whole thing. Increase the success rate by at least 15 percent for this package.
RB has unique technological advantages in this regard because of Fukushima, and RB itself is the world's leading sheep in the field of industrial robotics.
……
The next day, Ye Qing, carrying two masters of ingenuity and a "test article” loaded in a special metal box, took the Hayabusa and flew to a small county town in the province of Hao.
The test article is small, only the size of the shoe box.
The small county town called Jinwan County, on the edge of the Hexi corridor, is a sparsely populated poor county city. Liu Academician and his team, 200 kilometers outside the county, carried out project clearance work. There is a small analog nuclear power plant, which is about to come to an end in its own destiny. It will be a real simulation of damage accidents like Fukushima, but Maester Liu doesn't have a robot that can go deep inside the mini-reactor and watch the core change out of control.
Today is also the day when RB technical experts arrive, Liu Academicians and several students are responsible for hosting them in Jinwan County.
There is naturally no airport in Jinwan County, and the Falcon first arrives in Springs Wine City, then drives hundreds of kilometers to Jinwan County.
There is an energy service center in Quanjiu City. When Ye Qing arrived, the local person in charge brought Tai Jeep BJ40 over, which is the kind of domestic jeep that the Wolf 2 miles, cold drive.
