Abstract

With the development of Chinese economy and society and the acceleration of the urbanization process, the demand of centralized heating is increasing day by day. On the other hand the traditional coal-fired heating method is not only inefficient, but also exacerbates the environmental pollution. Therefore, this paper explores the feasibility of using existing thermal power plant sites to build small nuclear reactors. This paper first summarizes the basic principles of the site selection of small nuclear reactors, Subsequently, the basic factors that should be considered in the site selection process are elaborated. Based on the substitution analysis of the plant site, taking the Xiayuan power Plant as a research object, its geographical location, population distribution, nuclear emergency feasibility were comprehensively evaluated. The study shows that it has certain technical feasibility to build a small nuclear reactor at the site of the existing thermal power plant.
