Provision of seawater desalinization to
coastal lacking fresh water

SMALL SIZE

Modular design, short construction period and thrifty land-use

Low single-unit electric power catering for various needs
Integrated reactor layout Small dimension equipment,convenient
transportation
Integrated manufacturing, transportation and speedy on-site installation
Simplified auxiliary facilities, thrifty land-use
Environmentally friendly in the vicinity of urban areas and utilities

assured safety

Meeting the highest safety standards

  • Inherent safety, fewer radioactive sources/items,
    integration of multiple defense lines

  • Containment installed in the shielding building,
    avoiding the overpressure failure and radioactive leakage

  • Fully passive safety facilities, independent of external
    power supply, nonintervention period of more than three days

  • Underground layout of reactor building, enhanced protection
    against external hazards
