Introduction

Floating nuclear power stations is a combined heat

and low-power nuclear station .A vessels that is self-

contained, low-capacity floating nuclear power plant.

Why nuclear power generation on sea?

Provides energy equivalent to millions of times its

weight in coal and oil.

Economical (overall cost low).

Nuclear reactors dont require combustion and emit no

exhaust gas.

Doesnt require any land for construction.

High power density per unit space.

Technical Description

The FNPP can be self \non-self-propelled vessels

Boiling Water Reactor is used.

Provides up to 150 MW of electricity or 300 MW of heat.

Barge Operations

FNPP operations are carried out very much the same as

land based facilities, with the plant being dispatched in

accordance with grid demand.

The FNPP is fitted with an

onboard control room

complete with data

acquisition and all

machinery and equipment

controls. Switchgear,

motor controllers, mainbreakers and station and

step up transformers are all

installed on the barge.

Transportation

One of the most significant differences of a floating

nuclear power plant to a land based plant is its

transportability;

being capable of moving the unit from one location

to another. This is achieved with the use of towingboats, designed to move very large structures

around the world weighing upwards of 60,000 tons.

Interesting features

Generate 1/15th power produced by standard nuclear

power plant.

Low cost of electricity.

Supply heat and desalinate seawater.

Save up to 2,00,000 metric tons of coal and 1,00,000 tons

of fuel oil a year.

Every 12 years the plant will be overhauled.

locations

Sea and coastal beds.

River.

Lagoons.

Safety

A floating facility, near a coast but not in shallow water,can avoid the worst problems of earthquakes andtsunamis.

In deep enough water, tsunamis have minimal effect onfloating structures, and earthquakes transmit much lessforce to them.

Close to a seacoast helps, access to sea water for cooling.An emergency measure can be to lower the core into the

sea.

Advantages over traditional

Nuclear Power PlantsLand area not required.

Time of completion is very less.

Safe from Tsunami and Earthquake.

Flexible and Movable.

Economical( in terms of over haulage).

Construction required is less.

Conclusion

In an era where power consumption is

increasing alarmingly, the production is not

matching with the demand.

FNPP is the most suitable alternative source of

power generation as far as space, safety,

economical, environmental and purification of

saline water is concerned.

Two roads divergedin a wood, and I

I took the one lesstraveled by,

And that has madeall the difference. Thank
