AbstractAbstract
[en] Mr. Baron says the administration's effort to terminate the Clinch River Breeder Reactor (CRBR) project is symptomatic; they have also placed restrictions on fusion, coal, solar, and other areas of energy development in which technological advances are held back in order to force conservation. Because the breeder reactor, unlike solar and fusion energy, is both economically and technically feasible, a demonstration plant is needed. The contentions that the CRBR design is obsolete, that its proposed size is inappropriate, or that plutonium can be diverted for weapons proliferation are argued to be invalid. Failure to complete the CRBR will have both economic and national security repercussions

AbstractAbstract
[en] The Three Mile Island incident has already impacted on the future of nuclear power specifically and on the energy crisis generally. The resultant NRC's de facto moratorium on the licensing of commercial nuclear power plants will increase the use of oil, raise the cost of electric power, and may create power shortages. On the positive side, TMI may have been beneficial in that it has precipitated a searching reassessment and improvement of nuclear power safety and practices-TMI not withstanding, the rate of nuclear power expansion must increase; otherwise the energy crisis will deepen in the years to come

AbstractAbstract
[en] Brookhaven National Laboratory reporting to the Department of Energy has the technical and administrative management responsibilities for improving the operational and design safety systems of RBMK and the VVER reactors in Russia and the Ukraine. U.S. experts and industry interact with the Russian/Ukraine designers and operators to jointly develop the detailed requirements for system upgrades. When available, indigenous equipment and materials will be utilized. The construction and installation of most upgrades will be accomplished by Russia and the Ukraine with U.S. support and participation. This will maximize technology transfer, provide funds to U.S. and recipient country industry, and limit the nuclear liability of U.S. industry. (author)

AbstractAbstract
[en] The economics of using reactor power during off-peak period for the production of H2 and fixation of C to produce methanol and the fixation of N2 for the production of NH3 are reviewed to show that it is economically feasible with the current prices of fossil fuels. The incremental energy costs for synthesis processes are summarized. Methanol and ammonia production and economics are analyzed. An additional economic advantage would be the possible production of single cell protein

AbstractAbstract
[en] This report describes the results of a study aimed at determining the feasibility of applying a supervisory control modelling technology to the study of critical operator-machine problems in the operation of a nuclear power plant. The report includes brief overviews of various alternative approaches to the modelling of human performance, and different perspectives on the roles of operators in process control activities like those represented in a power plant. The result of the study is a conceptual model that incorporates the major elements of the operator and of the plant to be controlled. The operator portion of the model is developed at a block diagram level and includes several algorithms that are considered suitable for use with various model components. The plant portion of the model is developed from literature available on plant dynamics and is of the first-principles type. Both models are presented in detail sufficient for demonstrating the feasibility of developing a quantitative supervisory control model, for outlining the requirements for data to build and operate such a model, and for discussing its potential applications
