Chapter 750 Build the nuclear power plant in the southern sea area!

Dalieshan.

The grass is green, the trees are shady, and the birds are chirping. This place has become a good tourist attraction. However, Mingzhou Group has no plan to develop this place into a tourist attraction. It is usually very quiet here.

At this time, a group of people appeared on the road paved with stones. They walked while looking at the surrounding scene and pointing their fingers.

"Yes, the mountains and rivers are beautiful. Working in this place makes me happy and prolongs my life!"

"Such a nice place, why didn't President Qin think of building it into a resort? The development of Shuangsha Island is really good, and tourists call it Xiaomadai."

"Fortunately, it has not been developed into a tourist attraction. If it is developed, how can we continue to develop industries here? According to the plan, there is our nuclear reactor assembly workshop. How about you take a look?" Krasnopolsky pointed to the front Said flatly.

Today, these experts came here, of course, to investigate whether Dalie Mountain is suitable for the final assembly site of the nuclear reactor. The 095 nuclear submarine started to be built, and the final assembly of the nuclear reactor will also be carried out. If the final assembly cannot be done here, it must be replaced quickly.

The flat land is on the cliff, and the other side of the cliff can be built as a pier. It is easy for ships to get in and out, so it is convenient to transport materials. The built nuclear reactor can also be shipped to the opposite Mingzhou Shipyard for final assembly. The area of ​​the flat land is about Tens of acres are more than enough to build factories.

"Well, from the perspective of the land occupation and location, there is no problem. The key is to take preventive measures. If something goes wrong, is it convenient for follow-up processing?" Wang Dazhong, who led the inspection team, asked.

They are all old acquaintances. After all, they have worked on nuclear reactors together before. Wang Dazhong is a leader in nuclear reactors in China, and he has a close relationship with old nuclear reactor experts like Krasnopolsky.

However, friendship belongs to friendship, and now we still have to deal with business.

"Of course it's easy to handle. It's close to the sea. Even in the worst case, we can transport those things directly to the sea. It won't pose a threat to the mainland. To be on the safe side, we will assemble the nuclear reactor in summer. , to install nuclear fuel in winter, even if there is a danger, the strong wind will blow the radioactive dust to the sea."

This is just the worst case, and it may not occur once in the entire life cycle of the nuclear reactor assembly plant. However, these situations must be considered. Once this situation really occurs, how to deal with it.

Wang Dazhong nodded, satisfied with Krasnopolsky's answer.

"The times are developing and society is progressing. It is difficult for a new generation of nuclear physicists to conduct research in the mountains. Relocating the site to a big city will make many people afraid. You Mingzhou Group dare to be the first and open Good head." An expert said with emotion.

At that time, the motherland had just been established, faced with nuclear deterrence, and began to work hard. With the order of the superiors, tens of 10 people could go forward and keep their names incognito.

However, that era is over.

Although some students majoring in nuclear physics currently recruited are willing to go to the mountains to do research, but will his family members agree?Will his lover be willing?As the proud son of heaven, who would not want to develop in a better big city?
The research of nuclear physics also needs to come out of the deep mountains and go to the city, which will arouse the fear of many people. After all, many people are even afraid of the radiation of mobile phones, let alone nuclear radiation. Although safety measures are in place, But what if something goes wrong?
There will always be concerns.

Mingzhou Group has made a good start by setting up a nuclear reactor assembly plant here in Dalieshan. Moreover, no one will object to it. As long as it goes smoothly here, people will gradually accept it.

Safety measures must be taken well to ensure that nothing goes wrong, otherwise, if something happens, the first person to be injured must be the Mingzhou Group itself. After all, the Mingzhou Shipyard is opposite, and they are not afraid. Those who are farther away have nothing to worry about. of?

In the past few years, the Dalieshan Nuclear Power Plant has been operating normally without any accidents, and it has given reassurance to the surrounding residents. Besides, more than half of the people in the entire Mingzhou are related to the Mingzhou Group. How could they stand up against those who benefited from the Mingzhou Group.

As long as the superior approves it.

"Of course." Krasnopolski said: "Our Mingzhou Group has always attached great importance to the working environment. Every member of the Mingzhou Group is very satisfied with their current life, including the employees of the nuclear power plant. , now, do you want to visit the nuclear power plant?"

The investigation is multi-faceted, and of course it also includes looking at the operation of the nuclear power plant here.

"it is good."

The nuclear power plant is clean and tidy. Compared with other nuclear power plants, the biggest feature here is that it is small and exquisite. It doesn’t even have the big chimneys that are common in nuclear power plants. After all, the nuclear reactors here are prepared for submarines, and they can’t be cooled by big chimneys at all.

The nuclear reactor is similar to the power pack of a nuclear submarine, but for safety, a reinforced concrete shell is wrapped outside, and the control room is next to it.

There are always people staying on duty here, but under normal circumstances, there is no need for people to do anything here, just monitoring.

A large group of people entered the control room of the nuclear power plant. Looking at the various data jumping on the big screen inside, they were very moved. This is the most advanced and modern nuclear power plant control mechanism!
"This is the most advanced nuclear power plant in the world." Wang Dazhong said with emotion.

In terms of nuclear power plant technology, China has been lagging behind for a long time, so in the early 90s, it cooperated with France to introduce French nuclear power technology to build the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant.

However, in the past few years, domestic technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, and now it is the best in the world!

Even the nuclear power plants in France do not have such an advanced control mechanism. A large number of sensors are monitoring various data, and accidents can be discovered at any time and responses can be made. Even in unattended mode, various emergency operations can be completed.

Hearing everyone's emotion, Xu Zhengyang also felt a sense of pride in his heart.

Since it is in Mingzhou, Qin Tao does not need high-level security work, so today, in order to receive these people, Xu Zhengyang personally led them to Dalieshan. Along the way, he did not say anything, just being himself My secretary works on his own job, but he is proud in his heart.

"We have such advanced nuclear power technology, we should show it to foreigners and let them know how powerful our technology is!" At this moment, a person said.

As soon as these words came out, Xu Zhengyang frowned immediately.

"That's right, our technology is developing rapidly and has reached the world's advanced level, no worse than France's nuclear power technology! Let them see that they are the frogs in the bottom of the well."

Of course, we can’t let the outside world see it. This is the place with the highest level of secrecy. The power generation of the nuclear power plant here is only secondary. The main thing is to build an experimental reactor for the 095 submarine!

This is military technology. Of course, it cannot be shown to those nuclear power experts, as it will cause technology leaks. However, it would be inappropriate to directly reject it here. For a while, Xu Zhengyang was a little uncertain.

It would be great if Boss Qin was here, it would definitely be resolved easily!

"This kind of nuclear power plant only has an advanced control system, and the principle it uses is still an ordinary pressurized water reactor. There is nothing to see. The most advanced technology in our country should be a high-temperature air-cooled nuclear reactor. If you want to let foreigners see it, look at this most advanced nuclear reactor. nuclear reactor! Of course, our high-temperature air-cooled nuclear power plant can also be set up here in the future."

Xu Zhengyang looked over and saw Krasnopolski who was speaking. He is too powerful, right?After coming to the East for several years, I have also learned the way of life in the East!
Hearing what he said, Wang Dazhong smiled: "Yes, our high-temperature air-cooled nuclear reactor is already the fourth generation of technology, and it is at the advanced level in the world."

Wang Dazhong is also engaged in nuclear reactors. Over the years, he has been studying nuclear reactor technology. He has set the technical route on high-temperature air-cooled nuclear power plants. After all, this type of nuclear power plant has the best safety.

Now it is necessary to build a 10-megawatt experimental reactor, and when enough experience is accumulated, a 200-megawatt commercial reactor will be built and put into operation.

It is important to know where this commercial pile is built. Faced with the invitation from Krasnopolsky, Wang Dazhong still shook his head: "Let's forget it, you don't lack electricity in Mingzhou, and you can still To export electricity, if we want to build a high-temperature air-cooled nuclear power plant, it must be built in a place that lacks power supply, of course, for safety, it must be built by the sea.”

The safety of the fourth-generation nuclear power plants is very high, and the high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor is even more so. Its biggest advantage is its inherent safety.

Other nuclear reactors, once out of control, will bring catastrophic consequences. Lao Maozi's Chernobyl nuclear power plant, and later the island country's Fukushima nuclear power plant, were all caused by the loss of control after an accident.

The high-temperature gas-cooled reactor is a fool's reactor, that is to say, no one cares about it. In extreme cases, it can also shut down naturally. In 04, under the supervision of officials from the International Atomic Energy Agency, this was done in China Experiment to simulate the most extreme situation: no coolant, no control rods inserted, no one to manage, the nuclear reactor automatically stops running!

Even if this is the case, safety factors have to be considered. In the event of an accident, sea water can be used to cool it at any time.

"Everyone is here." Just then, a voice came from outside.

When everyone looked over, they were suddenly excited: "Boss Qin, are you here?"

Qin Tao is here.

After seeing off the officials of all sizes from the navy, Qin Tao heard that nuclear physics experts had come here for investigation, so he rushed over immediately. Since no one was seen on the island, these experts must have come to the nuclear power plant The control room is here. After he rushed over, sure enough, the control room, which was originally empty, is now full of people, and everyone is here to appreciate the advanced control equipment.

"Old Wang, what do you think of our place?" Qin Tao looked at the leader. He had met him before in a meeting, and Qin Tao has such a photographic memory that anyone who has seen it once will remember it. .

"President Qin, your place is as beautiful as a natural park." Wang Dazhong said.

"Yes, although our Mingzhou Group is engaged in industry, our love for the environment has never changed." Qin Tao said: "Anywhere our company occupies, we will pay attention to the environment."

Standing on the top of the tall Dalie Mountain and looking around, you can find that the place with the most beautiful environment must be the place where Mingzhou Group is located. It is as beautiful as a natural park, where industry and environment are perfectly integrated.

"By the way, I heard everyone was talking about high-temperature gas-cooled reactors?"

"Yes, Mr. Qin, this is the fourth-generation reactor we are currently researching, but the current progress is not fast." Wang Dazhong said: "We are currently planning to build a [-]-megawatt experimental reactor, but this It takes a lot of money.”

Now, although the country's economy has developed, the investment is also large, and all walks of life need funds. In this case, although the report of the [-]-megawatt experimental reactor has been approved long ago, it has not been settled yet. , It is estimated that the funds for the next year, or even the next year, will be required.

Qin Tao nodded: "Yes, research on nuclear reactors requires a lot of money. If you have difficulties, these control systems can be donated by our Mingzhou Group when they are built."

Qin Tao didn't intend to pay for it himself. After all, it wasn't three melons and two dates. The cost must be not small. Although Mingzhou Group has money, it can't blindly expand investment. These projects have nothing to do with military industry, and he will not invest a lot.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin." Wang Dazhong was very excited: "Thank you for your support to our motherland's nuclear power industry!"

Although it is only supporting a control system, it is also very good. After all, it is difficult for them to get sponsorship for a project that only relies on state funding.

"I hope you can work hard and study hard. When the experimental reactor is completed and the real nuclear power plant is built, if there is no investment, our Mingzhou Group is willing to lend a helping hand."

Experimental reactors do not make money, but nuclear power plants that are actually built will. If necessary, Mingzhou Group can also contribute capital. Anyway, it will be fine to distribute dividends according to the shares in the future.

"President Qin, we are currently planning to build a [-]-megawatt experimental reactor, which was originally planned to be placed in our School of Nuclear Engineering at Tsinghua University. However, we got inspiration from your nuclear power plant. If our experimental reactor is built in On the side of Shuangsha Island, how about providing you with electricity?"

Experimental reactors can also make money!

Now Qin Tao became serious.

There is a good saying that there is no electromagnetic gun downstairs in Harbin Engineering, but there is indeed a nuclear reactor downstairs in Tsinghua University!

This nuclear reactor is a [-]-megawatt high-temperature gas-cooled reactor. Of course, considering safety, this high-temperature gas-cooled reactor is not in the main campus, but in the Changping branch campus. After all, there are few people there.Below several small white buildings is the most advanced nuclear reactor in the world.

In addition to this, Changping Campus also has the world's first integrated shell-type low-temperature nuclear heating reactor, which is a 5 MW low-temperature heating test reactor. This reactor is used for heating in winter. In addition to these, Tsinghua University On the ground floor of the Department of Engineering and Physics, there is also a miniature graphite pile. The power of this graphite pile is very small. The fuel rods are inserted and pulled out by hand without any danger. It is mainly used for the reactor physics experiment course.

Now, the [-]-megawatt high-temperature air-cooled nuclear reactor to be built is the largest nuclear reactor on the campus of Tsinghua University. Since it is built, of course the heat inside must be utilized, that is, to generate electricity. In addition to letting them use it for themselves, they can even supply it to the outside world.

However, their school is located in a city, and the power supply is sufficient. It is also difficult to switch power, and it is also difficult to connect to the grid for power generation. After all, this is an experimental reactor, and the power supply may be unstable.Therefore, Wang Dazhong thought of a new way: install it on Shuangsha Island!
Shuangsha Island must be the one that needs the most power supply. With the rise of tourism there, the demand for power is also increasing. Up to now, there can only rely on diesel generators to transport diesel from land, which consumes a lot of money. is great.

A long time ago, Qin Tao had the idea of ​​a nuclear power treasure. However, food needs to be eaten bite by bite, and work needs to be done little by little. In recent years, Krasnopolsky has mainly been researching high-power nuclear reactors for aircraft carriers. Well, that kind of small nuclear power treasure has not yet been formally developed, so we have to wait.

Now, there is a new opportunity: build a [-]-megawatt high-temperature gas-cooled experimental reactor there!
After the installation of this experimental reactor, the island can completely bid farewell to the history of diesel power generation, and directly use this nuclear power plant to supply electricity. It is very hot there all year round. It would be great if the air conditioner can be used whenever you want. that's it.

Moreover, the ten-megawatt nuclear reactor generates quite a lot of electricity, not only can supply the entire island, but can even supply electricity to other islands and reefs through submarine cables!

However, there are also many problems.

"That reactor is used for experiments. Experts, professors and even students from Tsinghua University need to stay next to the reactor. Are they willing to come to our Shuangsha Island?" Qin Tao asked.

"Going to your Shuangsha Island is just a vacation. Why don't they want to?" Wang Dazhong said, "We even have selfish intentions when we ask for it. From now on, we will have an honest reason to live in Xiaomadai."

Qin Tao nodded: "As long as you go, then we welcome you. I can let you live in my villa on Shuangsha Island."

Although Shuangsha Island was developed by Qin Tao alone, the tourism management there belongs to Shuangsha Island Fishery Resort. Qin Tao can't directly ask them to provide Tsinghua University with a free place, but his own villa doesn't matter. Anyway, those who are empty are empty.If it is changed to a dormitory, it is still no problem to live in dozens of people.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin." Wang Dazhong said.

"You can live in our resort, but the construction of the nuclear reactor is best on the side of our army barracks to avoid damage." Qin Tao continued.

Qin Tao recognized the safety of advanced high-temperature gas-cooled reactors, but he was also afraid of man-made sabotage!What if someone finds out and sneaks in to destroy it?Therefore, it is relatively safe in the military zone.

In fact, domestic nuclear power plants are almost all under semi-military management. The Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant is similar to a military restricted area, in order to maximize the safety of the nuclear power plant and prevent it from being destroyed.

Now, if a nuclear power plant is to be built on Shuangsha Island, this issue must also be taken into consideration.

"If you want to design it in the military restricted area, then you have to coordinate with President Qin." Wang Dazhong said.

Qin Tao nodded: "This is no problem. The army over there also needs power supply. With nuclear power plants, it can reduce a lot of fuel transportation tasks and save costs for the navy. They should welcome it. However, the geological conditions there are not It must be suitable for the construction of nuclear power plants, if not, we have to consider building on other islands, so after you have inspected the conditions here, you need to go to Shuangsha Island for inspection.”

Shuangsha Island was created by land reclamation. The geological conditions there are relatively poor and may not be able to meet the needs of nuclear power plants.If not, then you can only think of other ways.

"If the conditions of Shuangsha Island are not good, we can consider other nearby islands and reefs. If it is suitable, we can also fill in another one."

If it is refilled, it will definitely take a lot of work, just like the stilt house built for the navy, directly survey and map the shape of the lower part, then build a platform, buckle it upside down, ensure that the platform is absolutely stable, and build a nuclear power plant on it It is the safest. Of course, the surrounding area must be filled with water to expand the area of ​​the island reef. However, the central island reef must be strong.

"Rebuilding islands and reefs? That will cost a lot of money." Wang Dazhong said.

"It doesn't matter, we can still get this little money." Qin Tao said: "If we want to refill, we will definitely consider the terrain and choose the most suitable location. This will also promote the economic development of the entire southern sea area. "

The development of the economy is inseparable from the supply of electricity. If the ten-megawatt nuclear power plant is poked there, and all the nearby islands and reefs can be connected to the electricity supply, then the economy of the entire island and reef will develop. Shadao fishery tourism resort, and other islands and reefs can also be developed, and tourism and fishery will be developed together to thoroughly promote the economic development there.

This is very important.

From the overall point of view, these investments are worthwhile. Now that Mingzhou Group has grown and grown, of course, it must repay the motherland. Qin Tao is a patriotic businessman, which is different from those who immigrate overseas after making money.

Where there is no country, there is no home.
