Water scarcity poses a mounting constraint on Ghana’s socioeconomic development, intensified by climate‐driven hydrological variability, rapid urbanization, and industrial expansion. This study presents a Ghana‐specific techno‐economic and policy‐integrated assessment of nuclear‐powered seawater desalination, moving beyond generic applications of ...

ABSTRACT Radioactive effluents discharged by nuclear power plants (NPPs) are classified into two categories: gas and liquid effluents, based on their source and discharge pathways. During the operation of these facilities, both types of effluents are released into the environment.

A New Fuel Design for Two Different HW Type Reactors
A new fuel element (called CARA) designed for two different heavy water reactors (HWRs) is presented. CARA could match fuel requirements of both (one CANDU and one unique Siemens's design) Argentine HW reactors. It keeps the heavier fuel mass density and

Development and Verification of Activated Source Term Library Based on ENDF/B‐VIII.0
Developed by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in the United States, the ORIGEN code for computing irradiation and decay processes is one of the most widely used point depletion programs. However, the nuclear data that accompanies it, crucial for its application, has been measured and evaluated a long time ago.

Analysis of carbon‐14 discharges from Korean nuclear power plants
Comparison of radioactive effluent discharges from Korean nuclear power plants before and after carbon‐14 discharge monitoring in Korean pressurized water reactors. Abstract The routine practice accompanying the operation of nuclear facilities involves the discharge of radioactive effluents from nuclear power plants (NPPs). Regulation of this discharge

BACKUP AND ULTIMATE HEAT SINKS IN CANDU REACTORS FOR PROLONGED SBO ACCIDENTS
In a pressurized heavy water reactor, following loss of the primary coolant, severe core damage would begin with the depletion of the liquid moderator, exposing the top row of internally-voided fuel channels to steam cooling conditions on the inside and ...
