Years of design engineering.
Hundreds of scientific investigations.
Thousands of specialists.
All this is required to obtain the most powerful energy in the world.
How is a modern nuclear power plant set up?
The Atom EnergoPriact Managing Company incorporates the best engineering and construction firms
to ensure a creation of reliable and safe nuclear plants.
Nuclear plant engineering is a continuous evolutionary process
involving step-wise development of current solutions and advanced designs.
A modern nuclear plant project is a result of more than 50 years of continuous improvement.
Several Atom EnergoPriact affiliate companies participate in engineering.
Vivier Toy is the most up-to-date Russian nuclear plant project.
A detailed nuclear plant computer model is generated in this special virtual environment,
enabling hundreds of specialists from different cities to work simultaneously on the same project.
Such an approach makes it possible to reduce the project development terms
and allows for prompt corrections.
The major specific feature of the new generation nuclear plants
is a package of active and passive safety systems
providing for reliable protection against natural calamities and anthropogenic accidents.
Safe operation of the future plant is conditioned by the right selection of its location.
Specialists of Energo is Iskanya, which is an affiliate company of Atom EnergoPriact
to form complete engineering investigations to make the right choice of the construction site.
Soil and water samples taken at the construction site are central laboratories for further study.
Specialists use a double beam spectrophotometer to make a precise chemical water analysis.
The soil's mechanical properties are being analyzed with an automated measuring and computing system.
Based on the data of the studies, a detailed 3D computer model is generated to predict the future formation performance.
The Atom EnergoPriact management structure is inclusive of two construction companies,
Energo Spetsmontage and LenAtom EnergoStroy.
The Novorevich nuclear plant, too, is a demonstrative example of construction of the new generation nuclear power plants.
More than 6,000 specialists come to work every day to put up more than 200 facilities on an 80 hectare site.
The nuclear plant construction is associated with numerous difficult and unique erection activities.
The containment dome of the nuclear plant under construction has been assembled on site
and set up with a dim-lack crane in the design position.
A special design traverse has been used to lift the 190-ton part of the dome.
Due to a special construction, the compact traverse ensures a six-fold strength margin.
The large block building method provides for reduction of construction terms and quality increase.
The MPP Turban Island room houses numerous high technology and heavy equipment.
Highly qualified personnel should be engaged for installation of the moisture-separatory heater of more than 90 tons.
It's a quite difficult task to lift unique structures past scaffolding and reinforcing
and to put them to the proper location with pinpoint accuracy.
Expert Organizational Management ensures a head-of-schedule construction.
NTT experts provide for thorough welding inspection during the nuclear plant construction.
Training of qualified experts is provided by the Nikind Atomstroy Company.
Due to the specific nature of the nuclear industry, man cannot perform all operations.
So, multiple robots designed and manufactured by the Nikind Atomstroy Company come to help.
The SK187 automated system ensures remote performance of the reactor shell non-destructive examination.
This way, development of defects in the shell, either before the reactor start-up or during operation, can be avoided.
Another engineering solution is used for production of MOX fuel.
A computer-controlled welding head fuses the butt and seals fuel pins using the Nikind Atomstroy Magnetical Impal Argbut welding procedure.
Nikind Atomstroy designs equipment ensuring safe remote operations.
The company manufactures radiation-resistant television systems capable of operating in the most severe environments.
A modern nuclear plant is protected by a whole set of safety systems.
Along the perimeter, there are four levels of screening and alarm systems,
inclusive of radio ray scanners and visual control cameras.
Design and manufacture of safety devices and systems is provided by the Research and Production Complex, the DAWL.
The check passage and the checkpoint for vehicles are equipped with access control systems featuring explosive and metal detectors.
All data from the sensors and systems allocated in the nuclear plant territory is sent to the Central Guard Console, providing for full safety.
Access control systems, as well as the physical protection systems of the future nuclear plant, are installed as early as the construction stage.
Today, Atom-Nergro-Priect puts up the most advanced and safest nuclear power plants.
Due to the common effort of more than 10,000 unique experts of leading companies which complement each other,
Atom-Nergro-Priect is one of the leaders among engineering companies not only in Russia, but all over the world.
Recreate reliable and safe nuclear power plants, producing energy for the steady future.
