Editorial 6

That happened in January:

Belgian Technology in China

Belgium, the center of Europe, and a preeminent leader in nuclear cooperation with China

In 1952 Belgium created SCK•CEN one of the first European

research institutes dedicated to nuclear energy.

The institute operated the reactor BR1, now dedicated to equipment

calibration, the BR2 that produces the radioisotope molybdenum-99

for nuclear medicine, and the BR3, first PWR loaded with MOX fuel.

Other activities matured in the nuclear field, with leading companies

still exporting their technology and expertise to China, among

them we can cite Tractebel in Civil Engineering, Belgoprocess in

the reprocessing of waste, GEA Courtoy in fuel manufacturing,

Hamon Thermal Europe for cooling towers, and KWE Eupen in the

manufacturing of electric cables.

SCK•CEN the forefront of Belgian technology in China

The nuclear cooperation between China and Belgium is closely

associated with SCK•CEN. The institute provides expertise in

the fields of radiation protection and radiation monitoring, nuclear

safety, nuclear technology, innovative concepts, nuclear metrology,

nuclear medicine, decommissioning of nuclear installations, and

management of radioactive waste.

During his official visit to Belgium in October 2010, Premier Wen

Jiabao met with King Albert II and Prime Minister Yves Leterme.

The leaders of the two countries signed a cooperation agreement in

nuclear energy.

SCK•CEN signed two international agreements to collaborate on

the Myrrha project. The first is with the China Academy of Sciences,

since China sees Myrrha as a way forward in treating nuclear waste;

the second agreement was signed for the construction of a pilot

plant to produce mixed oxide nuclear fuel (MOX) and for the use of

MOX in Chinese nuclear reactors with CNNC.

Both projects are confidently ongoing between both governments

and May 2012 Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang while on an

official visit to Europe reiterated China’s interest in attracting more

technology from Belgium.

Tractebel Engineering, a prominent engineering authority

Tractebel Engineering, a long-standing partner of Areva, has been

involved in China for the Ling Ao project, and provided engineering

services. The contracts were won at the price of technology transfer

agreements. Recently, in Taishan’s EPR project, the company was

responsible for the civil engineering studies for the reactor building.

The company’s international activities represent 46% of its turnover.

The nuclear branch, which accounts for 29% of the company’s

revenue, is looking to expand in China, notably in the field of project

engineering, fuel & core management, core optimization studies,

fuel and waste storage and disposal, radwaste management and

decommissioning and training in nuclear engineering.

Belgoprocess, a technology-driven, dynamic business partner in waste management.

In the field of waste management, Belgoprocess signed an

agreement with China National Nuclear Corporation in China as

part of a consortium with Nukem Technologies GmbH for a Pyrolysis

plant for the treatment and reprocessing waste. The company,

in a joint venture with ATAL Engineering, recently completed the

design and the construction of the final disposal facility for low-level

waste for the Environment Protection Department in Hong Kong.

Belgoprocess is the leading entity in charge of the decommissioning

of Eurochemic, the first reprocessing factory established in Dessel

in 1957, and recently involved in the decommissioning of the

Belgonucleaire facility that attracts much interest from CNNC.

COURTOY, the world leader in fuel and the MOX rotary press

This company, recently acquired by the German group GEA, located

in Halle, near Brussels, has been at the forefront of technology

innovation for fuel pellet fabrication. Involved in almost every type

of nuclear fuel, the company supplied its “Courtoy” to the Baotou

and Yibin plants for the Chinese fuel, including the fuel for Candu,

VVER, M310 and other reactors. Even though the local competition

is growing in China, Courtoy anticipated the market and expanded

with a factory in Shanghai to remain the leading rotary press

manufacturer and service supplier for its customers.

Its unique knowledge of the rotary press for MOX fuel positions the

company as the preferred partner of CNNC’s subsidiaries. Tonie

Van Zegbroeck, the head of technology for Courtoy, will introduce

the company’s business in this area.

Hamon Thermal Europe, the integrator for a “cool” environment

In the eighties, Hamon transferred its cooling towers technology

for coal-fire plants to China. Twenty years later, the company was

required to build the tallest and safest natural draft cooling towers

for the inland nuclear power plants. Its latest technology “the water

collecting device” attracted all the engineering companies such

as CNPE, CNPEC and SNDPRI for the domestic and overseas

projects. Even if Fukushima slowed down the inland projects,

Hamon was required to provide its safety-cooling tower, such as the

“Civaux NPP type” a unique construction dedicated to the coolant of

the primary pumps and resistant to any type of accident.

Hamon has opened a factory in the nuclear industrial Park at

Haiyan, close to Qinshan, to provide elements of the cooling tower

and has trained a support team in Beijing. As the president of

Hamon, Jean-Francois Lambiliotte says: “for nuclear power, we

design and build the biggest, safest and tallest towers in the world,

and we will continue to transfer our technology to China”. Jean-

Christian Martin and Eric Binard, from the Sales Department at

Hamon will present their company’s business in this area.

Kabelwerk Eupen: More than 260 years of history in cables

Kabelwerk Eupen's history can be traced back to 1747. At that time,

the Bourseaux family had a modest workshop making all kinds of

jute ropes and hawsers. Their wide knowledge and experience,

acquired over many decades, led the brothers Carl and August

Bourseaux to begin manufacturing cables towards the end of the

19th century. By the early 1980s the company was supplying safety

cables to nuclear power plants in Europe and recently to Tianwan

NPP phase 1 in China.

While facing fierce competition from local manufacturers, the

company has launched an ambitious strategy in China. Its product

director, Edgar Heinrichs gave an exclusive interview of Eupen

history and future expansion in China.

The phasing out of nuclear power from some European countries

seems to overshadow the industrial jewels located in the EU.

Belgium has been at the forefront of the nuclear power industry

since the 1950’s and continued to invest in nuclear research, such

as the Generation IV and ITER. The rapid expansion of the Chinese

market creates a need to import mature and proven technology from

industrialized countries such as Belgium, and more companies.

Government organizations such as the Wallonia Foreign Trade &

Investment Agency (AWEX) and Flanders Investment & Trade (FIT)

support this market which benefits China and at the same time

creates jobs in Belgium.

Other European countries, such as Germany, Switzerland and Italy

should follow the Belgian’s example and support their industry to

expand in China and transfer more technology rather than letting

small lobbying groups bury years of technology and expertise.

9 Interview of the Month

DPS: Mr. Binard, could you introduce yourself to us?

Eric Binard: I joined Hamon as a cooling tower Thermal

Tester in 1985 and I moved to the sales department in 1988

where I worked mainly in Pakistan, Japan and in exporting many

large projects. Later I moved to the air cooled heat exchanger

(dry cooling) division. I had been holding the position of Product

Manager for 7-8 years being responsible for aircoolers in the

oil and gas industry as well as the market of refinery and gas

compressors. Due to Hamon’s strategy of diversifying production

with low labor cost, I spent two years for a JV in Bhopal (India)

where we built a new workshop and installed our machines.

Then, I had a proposal to go to Bombay (now Mumbai) to take

care of cooling towers. That’s how I came back to this division. At

that time, we bought a small company, so I made the transfer of

technology and trained engineers. In 2001, I returned to Belgium

as Team Leader of Product Line for power plants. Since this year,

I have been in charge of offices in Belgium, France, Turkey, Italy

and Russia for everything concerning cooling towers.

DPS: What is Hamon’s presence in the international nuclear power industry?

Eric Binard: In short, we participate in the cooling process in the tertiary circuits of power plants. These are cooling towers with

large chimneys having white plumes. We are somehow “making

clouds.” The first nuclear power plant we have provided is Bugey,

near Lyon in France. Subsequently, we supplied Spanish nuclear

power plants, Germans, Belgians and Americans.

Hamon’s story is quite funny because there were two Hamon

brothers, Achille and Fernand both from Brittany in France. They

were the great grand uncle of our actual CEO. In 1904, Achille

created a company in France, and in 1906, Fernand did the

same in Belgium. Both companies produced the cooling towers required for the new industrial processes. Achille have always

stayed on the French market, while Fernand did not confine

himself to his own country but turned to neighboring country—

Germany, and then very quickly to the United States. These were

the first two markets abroad to be developed by Hamon.

The group Hamon employs around 1900 persons around

the world. In our division, Hamon Thermal Europe, there are

currently 200 people working in France and Belgium. We have

cooling tower equipment manufacturing plants in France, India

and China, and a research & development center in Belgium.

DPS: Do you provide civil engineering and construction of cooling towers?

Eric Binard: We cover the entire process. We have expertise in thermal and civil engineering. Hamon is the

only company mastering both these skills. Usually, the civil

engineering work is subcontracted. This is part of our strategy—

to be able to integrate civil engineering from a thermal aspect.

We are the prime contractor where we can be, and have been

sparing no efforts in meeting the demands of our customers.

Jean-Christian Martin: We can provide such service

if it is required by end users. We deliver the tower fully built,

including the design, the erection of tower and the installation

of international components. In China, we don’t speak of that

because the design is always done by a design institute, and

the erection will be done a civil construction company in China.

In future if the market changes, Hamon can provide site service

besides construction like we are doing in Europe, the U.S. and

India. In this case, Hamon will find a partner to do the civil work.

That can be possible in China.

Interview with Eric Binard andJean-Christian Martin, Hamon Thermal Europe


DPS: What other services can Hamon provide to the nuclear industry?

Jean-Christian Martin: Hamon can provide all the services related to the cooling tower business, which means

we can also provide repair and maintenance. As all the towers

in China will be newly built, there will be no immediate need for

maintenance. But there will be such a need in some years from

now and currently there can be a need in other markets like

conventional power plants. In Europe for instance, Hamon has an

important activity for maintenance of cooling towers. Sometimes

it’s just to keep the same performance of the cooling tower, while

sometime it can be to increase a 30 year-old cooling tower’s

performance because it can be upgraded with improved internal

equipment. That’s also something Hamon can propose.

DPS: What is Hamon’s strategy in terms of R & D? What is the annual budget allocated for R & D?

Eric Binard: R&D represents 1.5 to 2% of our turnover, but represents 15 to 20% of the production value of goods coming

from our factories. We are not a company who only lives on one

existing and proven technology. One can have the impression

that R&D progresses very slowly in our field of activity, but in

reality we have made enormous efforts to keep a competitive

advantage, being always a little ahead of others. Hamon has

invested a lot in the research center.

DPS: What kinds of solutions have you made through research and development?

Eric Binard: There is an example of what we have accomplished recently. One of the Power Plants located in

Moorburg, near Hamburg in Germany, Vattenfall Europe required

having the “smoke” (the plume) as less visible as possible.

For this purpose, Hamon has designed (and is currently building)

a plume abated fan assisted cooling tower.

This cooling tower is unique in its design because it serves

the two 800 MWe blocks of the Moorburg power station

independently from each other. This cooling tower concept

received best public acceptance because it avoids visible plumes

and combines limited height – lower than the plant’s main

building – and ground surface.

DPS: Can this type of solution be used in nuclear power?

Eric Binard: Yes, we provide a similar solution to that of EDF’s Chinon power plant, a 4X1000 MW plant close to the Loire Valley in France. Because this area is very touristic due to the Loire castles, there should be no large visible buildings. So we found a solution to create a cooling system without high and visible tower.

DPS: Are cooling towers hazardous to the environment?

Eric Binard: No, it is 100% ecological. That’s the whole point of a cooling tower. Instead of getting cold water directly from the river, taking it through the condenser and then rejecting hot water into the river, we take only 4% of the flow. We discharge water into the river without adding any elements. There are therefore no environmental hazards. For one nuclear Power Plant we have even designed and built a specific cooling tower with water collecting devices to cool the water before discharging it into the river.

Hamon Factory in China

DPS: Could you explain Hamon’s history in the nuclear market in China?

Jean-Christian Martin: The Chinese nuclear market was only composed of nuclear power plants located by the sea until the year 2007-2008. So there was no need for cooling towers. Then, the Chinese government changed and decided to launch an extensive program of nuclear power plants on river banks, so there is a market for cooling towers because you cannot directly discharge water into rivers. The rejected hot water temperature is too high and this would break the ecological balance. But the problem is nuclear power plants require very large cooling towers due to the large volume of water to be cooled. Chinese end users were wondering if they should build a much larger tower than what is usually built for thermal plants or if they should instead build two towers for one reactor unit.

We have been in contact with Shandong Electric Power Engineering Consulting Institute (SDEPCI for short) they wanted to know which solutions Hamon could bring to this problem regarding to the dimensions of the towers. Our first contact with them led us to secure a contract to design the “Super Large” Natural Draft Cooling Tower of the Jiangxi Pengze Nuclear Power Plant. This was a means for us to promote technology developed by Hamon in France several years ago. This technology allows the towers to save a lot of pumping cost and energy. In the meantime, SNPTC was created, and part of SDPECI became SNPDRI (State Nuclear Electric Power Design & Research Institute). SNPDRI was interested in this technology and we signed an agreement with them to study the complete engineering of a tower for the AP1000 Nuclear Power Plant of Pengze. This Natural Draft Cooling Tower will be the largest cooling tower that has ever been built, 210 meters high with a base diameter of 170 meters. This was our first project in China.

Our second major project was concluded with CGNPC for the Xianning Nuclear Power Plant. We had finalized a contract with them differently because we signed a cooperation agreement. We performed in collaboration with CGNPC for the complete design of the cooling towers for Xianning units 1 &2. Later we will supply and install the internal components of those towers.

Recently we have signed a cooperation agreement with CNPE (China Nuclear Power Engineering) belonging to CNNC. This agreement will open the door for an international cooperation with CNNC on super large cooling towers for nuclear projects inside but also outside of China.

Hamon has a factory in China manufacturing the internal components of the wet cooling tower. This factory was established several years ago in Jiaxing, near Shanghai. So we can say that for cooling equipment, Hamon has good production base for the Chinese market.

Hamon has also developed in China air-cooled steam condensers and indirect cooling. We opened a factory in Tianjin to manufacture the internal components of this kind of equipment at the end of 2010. This is a key step for the development of Hamon in China because there is a significant market for this type of equipment in areas where water is not available in a very large quantity. The wet cooling tower consumes some water, so when you have a limited quantity of water, you don’t want to lose any. The air-cooled steam condenser or the indirect cooling technologies allows cooling the water without any loss. That’s why we call it “dry”.

DPS: What were the main obstacles or technical challenges you have encountered in China?

Jean-Christian Martin: When Hamon first came to China, we had to understand the market and make ourselves known.

Hamon became a member of an association named Partenariat France Chine Electricité (P.F.C.E.), in English France-China Electricity Partnership. This association aims to promote sustainable involvement of French SMEs / SMIs in the realization of China’s nuclear program. All its members are qualified providers of Electricité de France (EDF).

We could benefit among other channels, of the help of this network.

Then, our strategy was to try to find one competitive advantage to see what technology Hamon could propose to China which would differentiate us from others. We have promoted the water collecting device for the cooling tower. This system allows


us to save energy and pumping cost of the water circulation inside the cooling tower. Inside a “classic” type of Natural Draft Cooling Tower, water is pumped from the bottom of the tower to the distribution level, so the larger a cooling tower is, the higher the pumping cost is. The system using a water collecting device allows us to collect the cold water at a higher level. So the pumping head is significantly reduced because you pump only from a short distance. Therefore, the pumping cost and the energy spent to pump the water are also significantly reduced. This technology has been installed in France for more than 25 years now. It’s a good solution for saving energy. This is what we proposed to the Chinese market when we entered this market for nuclear applications. This system is not only available for nuclear power plants, but also for conventional plants if there is a need for large towers. Hamon is the only cooling tower manufacturer that offers this kind of technology and has been proven in installations which have been running for more than 25 years.

DPS: What is Hamon’s strategy in China for coping with a Fukushima type accident?

Jean-Christian Martin: We haven’t stopped working on the two nuclear power plant projects. The design activity is on-going. The design contracts continue, but we are now suffering from the projects being delayed and we don’t know when the

plants will be built. But we are confident that the program will start again, because there is a need of energy supply so China will build more inland nuclear power plants. Of course there will be improvements in safety. Hamon is ready to work together with Chinese end users or design institutes to study the impact of cooling towers on the environment, because in the minds of the public, the cooling tower is seen as a pollution factor due to the smoke on top. But actually the cooling towers are producing clouds, and it is only vapor, so there is no pollution inside. There is no risk to the environment. In fact they’re beneficial to the environment. If you discharge too much water into the river, you will change the temperature of water, and it will affect the life in the river. DPS: What are your future plans for the Chinese nuclear power market? What products will you provide for the Chinese nuclear power industry in the future?

Jean-Christian Martin: We do expect the inland program to restart soon. We are sure there is high potential for Hamon equipping inland power plants. But we also want to continue the cooperation policy that we have started with different design institutes in China. We remain convinced to follow this kind of strategy.

Besides inland programs, Hamon has a long experience in designing and building cooling towers for coastal power plants using sea water. We notice that the Chinese are more and more concerned about the impact of the industry on the environment. The cooling system will warm the sea water, which then severely impacts sea life in the same way we said earlier about river life. So we are convinced that if the Chinese nuclear authority decides to build a cooling tower on the coast, Hamon can play an important role there thanks to our experience worldwide in wet cooling towers used near the sea.

Regarding the new type of nuclear power product proposed to China, Hamon has designed and built cooling towers in Europe for emergency purposes, we called it the Ultimate Heatsink cooling tower. It was built 20 years ago when the French nuclear programs were very active in 80s. The tower is used in case of loss of coolants to cool the reactor. The reactor can be cooled using water pumped directly from the river and going through an exchange system. But, in some cases, there could be the risk of water from the river not being available in sufficient quantity. You can also imagine that the pumping section of this water can be blocked by debris. Then, you can’t secure the cooling of a reactor in case of emergency. Hence, Hamon has designed and built some specific cooling systems for emergency purposes. We have designed this type of tower for the Civaux Nuclear Power Plant in France. This tower must resist any type of external event including natural disasters like tornados, strong wind and earthquakes. This tower is intended to remain operational whatever happens to the environment of the reactor to make sure the reactor will be cooled down.

Natural Draft Cooling Tower – Cruas Nuclear Power Plant, France


Interview with

Tonie Van Zegbroeck, CTO of Industrial Business Development at GEA Process Engineering Courtoy

DPS: How long have you been w i th Courtoy, can you tell us more about your background?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: In 1991 I started with Courtoy as a project engineer for the French Melox project. Courtoy had

just sold a pre-compaction press to Melox and they needed a

project engineer to design a customized Mox press. Before that

I was undertaking civil work in Africa, I worked three years in

northern Mali, and I was responsible for a plaster plant, for a

local competitor of Lafarge.

DPS: How long had Courtoy been involved in the manufacturing of Presses for the nuclear fuel industry prior to the Melox project?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: In 1969 the first nuclear fuel rotary press was sold to Westinghouse in the US. This press is

still in operation at Zyrcatec, Port Hope, Canada, which is now

Cameco Fuel Manufacturing. It was bought from Westinghouse

for one Dollar and I was told this Dollar is still on the desk of the

president who made the transaction. They use the press now as

a pre-compaction press. Five years ago I was in Zyrcatec and I

saw that it was still operational.

Here is one important point about Courtoy; our machines are so

robust that they last a long time, which is a significant advantage

for our customers.

D P S : H o w l o n g h a s C o u r t o y b e e n manufacturing presses?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: This year Courtoy celebrated its 100-year anniversary, but in the beginning the company was a

subcontractor for the reparation of small Machinery. In our area

there was a lot of pharmaceutical and chemical industry and as

we were repairing machines, that is how we started in this type

of industry. The first press was a mechanical single stroke press,

which successors we made until ten or fifteen years ago.

In 1933 Courtoy started making rotary tablet presses. We

supplied to any industry that needed to convert powder into a

solid shape. When you look at our range of tablet presses we

have machines for very small components like rings with a 0.4

mm outer diameter and a 0.2mm center hole requiring a couple

Newtons of compression force, up to 60mm diameter tablets

requiring 400kN of compression force.

DPS: Is Courtoy family owned or does it belong to a group?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: The last family members left us in 1998, and in fact we were sold to a British holding GEI, in

1990. This company did not do so well, and the holding sold its

crown jewels to GEA. Coming from a holding mainly capitalized

by retirement funds, and to be sold to an engineering company

like GEA made a big difference. GEA was looking at the long

term, and gave us the possibility to develop new machine types,

strengthen our worldwide presence and allowed us to build a

new production facility.

DPS: Can you tell us how Courtoy became involved with the nuclear industry?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: The nuclear industry originally produced the fuel pellets using hydraulic single stroke presses,

but the problem with these machines is that the cylinders and

hydraulic pump contain a lot of oil. When a seal blows there is

oil everywhere with a high risk of contaminating the fuel. For

this reason, and the need for higher production output, the

nuclear fuel pellet plants were interested in exploring other

technologies. The rotary press is a purely mechanical process


GEA Courtoy in Belgium

with fully symmetrical compression from top and bottom and

a compression roller using only very small amounts of oil for

lubrication purposes. Westinghouse was the first to try a rotary

tablet press for nuclear fuel production, not only because the

problem of huge oil leaks was solved, but also the production

output increased by three to five times.

DPS: After the US, the nuclear industry started its development in Europe, how were you involved?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: After my position as project engineer for the Melox press, I became Engineering Manager in

Courtoy so from that moment I was involved in all the Courtoy

nuclear projects worldwide.

DPS: What is the position of Courtoy in the European nuclear fuel plants?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: As far as we know, we have at least 95% of the rotary tablet press market worldwide. In

Europe, there used to be some other presses in operation but I

believe they were all replaced by Courtoy presses. DPS: What

about the rest of the world?

DPS: What about the rest of the world?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: If you have a look at the list of nuclear fuel pellet plants published by the World Nuclear

Association, all these companies use our presses except for

the plants in Iran, North Korea and Pakistan to which we are

not allowed to export, and India to which we hope to receive an

export license soon. In 1994 we were allowed to start exporting

U02 presses to Russia, so now they use our machine as well as

the nuclear fuel plants in Kazakhstan, China, Argentina, Brazil,

South Korea, US and Canada.

DPS: Is there a particular reason these countries buy your equipment?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: There are several reasons - the reliability is an important one but the most important is

that we are the only rotary press company offering constant

density compression. That is the unique feature. We have

air compensators on both bottom and top compression

rollers ensuring that each tablet is made to the same density.

Depending on the regularity of the die filling, pellets may have

different heights, but all have the same density thanks to the

same compression force on each tablet.

DPS: Are you involved in the fuel production for Gen 4 nuclear power plants?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: Yes, the Phoenix and Superphoenix plants had our Courtoys, and a couple of years

ago we had an agreement with the CEA in France to develop a

press for the Gen 4 and that project is ongoing - it is a complete

new design for the machine.

DPS: What makes a rotary press different for Gen 2, 3 or 4?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: As far as I am aware, it is the containment level. I understand that for the Gen 4 pellets the

powders are more hazardous, so a stronger containment,


a more robust machine that can work without operator and

automatic change of tooling are important.

DPS: What represents the R&D in your new machines?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: Let’s say for a regular uranium press, there are not that many novelties. Remember that the

nuclear industry is quite conservative. In 2007 when I became

involved in the worldwide sales of our presses I contacted all

our clients in the nuclear industry and asked them for feedback

about our machines, the changes and improvements required,

and in fact there were a couple of issues we have been working

on to improve the reliability, but almost all our clients did not

want to change the machine’s features or dimensions. This

means there have not been so many changes to our machines

over recent years, it is only recently that we have been talking

about and experimenting with an online checking of density,

so all the pellets coming from the machine will be measured

in height, diameter and about twenty of them will be weight

checked. From the height and the diameter you can calculate

the density and the density can be fed back into the machine

and then the control system can correct either the compression

force or the weight of the tablet and so keeps the tablet within

density and height specifications.

DPS: Do you have any feedback from your customers regarding the behavior of the fuel pellet and how you can improve your machine?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: Yes, one of the things that everyone is looking at in the nuclear industry is to make the

tablet net shape. Let me explain: When you compress uranium,

or whatever powder, you always have internal powder friction.

This results in a density gradient reducing towards the middle of

the pellet. So even when you press at constant density internal

powder friction reduces the compression force inside the pellet

and as a consequence the density is less in the middle. This is

observed by the hour glass shape of the pellet after sintering, as

the pellet diameter is a little bit less in the middle. A centerless

grinding machine is used to get an exact cylindrical shape as the

tolerance between the pellet and the cladding must be very well

controlled for correct heat dispersion when used in the reactor.

If pressing could result in a perfect cylindrical part after sintering

the grinding process could be omitted and no grinding waste

would be generated. We are working on those things to improve

it, but it is a very difficult matter.

DPS: You mentioned that your Courtoy rotary press lasts for a quite a long time, how can you have a sustainable business if your clients do not place new orders regularly?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: My biggest challenge is to find new business in all kinds of industries. The nuclear business

itself is quite constant thanks to our worldwide export. Besides

new machine sales, we propose upgrades to our installed

base. There has been a change from wet granulation to dry

granulation for which we made the holdup / hold down system to

make sure there are no cracks when ejecting the tablet, but for

the rest, maybe dry granulation has a better flow so we propose

a double rotary feeder but the compression itself is still the

same.

DPS: Do you have a dedicated place and team in factory for the nuclear press?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: The same project manager handles all nuclear projects and we have the same team

of people who will assemble the R53/R57 presses. This

guarantees a constant high ISO 9001 standard which is the

same for nuclear and non-nuclear machines.

DPS: When did GEA Courtoy start working with China?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: The first nuclear press was delivered Yibin in 1986 and the press is still in operation.

DPS: Let’s go back to China, you sold to Yibin and later expanded, tell us more about this.

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: Yes, Yibin bought several

machines, I think the last one delivered was at the end of 2007.

China is an important market for us, there are so many nuclear

power plants being built that there is a need for fuel. Nuclear

energy is not expanding in Europe, so we need to find a market

for these machines in other parts of the world. We are aware

China is developing new types of reactors and we are willing to

be involved in these projects, helping to optimize the process of

making the pellets with these new specific reactors.


DPS: You set up a new factory in Shanghai; what are its objectives in the Chinese market?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: The Chinese market, not only nuclear, is growing very fast, and it was decided that some labor

intensive products could be made in China for the worldwide

market like the intermediate bulk container (IBC). After other

requirements from the Chinese market surged other products

were transferred to China and now we are expanding this factory

for the whole Asian market.

DPS: Are you sourcing the steel materials in China?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: I remember at the beginning that some of the stainless steel grades were shipped from Europe,

but I believe that now the stainless steel is purchased locally.

DPS: Does it mean that you can find the same grade of raw material in China?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: As far as I understand, China has made big improvements in steel and raw material that you

can find for your local manufacturing. However I do not know if

the steel is completely local or partially imported.

DPS: How many persons are working in your GPCN factory in Shanghai?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: It is growing very fast. Ten years ago, it was a couple of hundred, but now it’s already up to 787

people and is increasing every month. We are planning to look

for another facility, and this will be the third time GPCN will have

moved in ten years. In addition to an increasing production there

is project engineering and customer care service for a lot of the

GEA portfolio.

DPS: Is your factory in Shanghai involved in the nuclear market?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: So far not, but we do make pharmaceutical Courtoy Modul S tablet presses for the Asian

market. These presses are produced in small batches. In the

nuclear field, products are more engineered to order so you

need to have the engineering capabilities and the organization

to build and test a single machine. For the pharmaceutical market, the machines are made on the

assemble-to-order principle as the number of options are limited

compared to machines made for other industries. To give you an

idea, in the pharmaceutical environment, 95% of the recipient

of the powder is always the same, so the flow characteristics do

not change a lot. The tablet has to be small so you can swallow

it, so the machine is very standardized.

The non-pharmaceutical applications are much more difficult.

For example if you take a ball pen, the tungsten ball is pressed

with a compression force of a couple of kilograms, if we talk

about the detergent industry, the compaction is around 20 tons,

and for some projects the compression is much higher, we had a

project in Australia where the compression was 35 tons, so there

is a very wide range of diameters, a wide range of compression

forces, and wide range of flow of materials.

DPS: Do you have any plan to use this factory in Shanghai to be more involved in the nuclear market for maintenance or technical support?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: We indeed have a team in Shanghai. Jurgen Boecks, our former R&D manager at Courtoy,

heads up the Courtoy business unit. Besides a sales and

maintenance team, he also develops a team to assemble the

Modul S press. His maintenance people can support the nuclear

field and we also have a very experienced Belgian expat in the

maintenance field located in Thailand and from there he can

easily reach our customers in Asia for support on the larger

maintenance jobs.

GEA Shanghai


DPS: Are you involved in the manufacturing of pellets for the AP1000?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: All AP1000 pellets made so

far use the Courtoy press. There have been some studies on

the internet about the AP1000 pellets, and what Westinghouse

wants to do is to increase the output of the reactor. One of the

studies shows that WEC wants to make a pellet with a big hole

inside so that there is not only cladding on the outside, but also

cladding on the inside so the cooling could be done from both

sides allowing the reactor power output capacity to increase

by 30%. So typically now on some reactors the tablets have a

hole in the center to keep the core cool, but there are a lot of

possibilities with a tablet with a bigger core.

DPS: Are you also involved in the other reactors such as the EPR, or the new Gen 3 NPP?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: GEA Process Engineering Courtoy™ presses is involved and we have confidentiality

agreements with some companies in that field. We are an

engineering company and we work closely with all the big

players worldwide, such as WEC, Areva, CEA, KNFC, and

CNNC to optimize their productions, not forgetting the Russians.

DPS: So your technology improvements d e p e n d o n t h e f e e d b a c k f r o m y o u r customers, right?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: I think that is the key, it is important to visit our customers on regular basis to hear what

the problems are, their future aspirations, and offer solutions.

DPS: Areva, Rosatom and KHNP market their technology worldwide. Do they ask you to be their main partner in their international projects?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: With Areva we sold two presses to KNFC for their projects in South Korea. Areva is also involved

in India. We cannot export to India although we have a purchase

order. The Belgian and Indian governments are working on a

bilateral nuclear agreement so we can export to India. There

are other orders from Areva, because they sold their technology

overseas and they consistently recommend a Courtoy press.

DPS: China is going overseas, such as to Argentina; do you plan to become a strategic partner of CNNC and the other Chinese players for the international market?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck: We already provided our nuclear

fuel pellet presses to Argentina and Brazil.

We have proved we have the experience to design and manu-

facture machines for nuclear pellets and we hope we can have

Chinese partners to expand to other markets. We would love to

be part of CNNC projects.

Interview with

Edgar Heinrichs, Product Manager (Senior Engineer) forNuclear Products at KABELWERK EUPEN AG

DPS: Can you tell us about your background and how long have you been working for Eupen?

Edgar Heinrichs: After completing my degree in elec-

tro-technology, I started at KABELWERK EUPEN in 1979, at

that time as the technical manager of the installation and acces-

sories department (cable terminations and splices).

For 10 years I have been assigned to the marketing department

where I act as Product Manager and where I observe the world-

wide market trends which I can take account of in EUPEN’s

products range.

My function as a Senior Engineer allows me to have intensive

external contact with our customers, and internal contact with

various departments such as development, production, test lab-

oratory and quality control. Nowadays, my main activity is con-

centrated on the nuclear cable range.

DPS: Are you specialized in the business development for only nuclear cables or all cables?

Edgar Heinrichs: KABELWERK EUPEN is well-known as

a full range supplier of electrical cables. Simple wires, low and

medium voltage power cables, control and instrumentation ca-

bles for all possible industrial applications including telecommu-

nication cables - either as symmetrical copper cables or coaxial

cables, and even fiber optic technology are components of our

product range. Decades of experience with these product fami-

lies stimulated us in the 1980s to bring some of our products up

to nuclear standard, this means cables for the containment area

with DBE qualification (the so-called K1 cables), or for the radi-

ation-intensive area (so-called K2 cables) or for the periphery

(the so-called K3 cables). Nowadays a lifetime expectation of 60

years has become a usual criterion.

DPS: Eupen was created in 1747, can you tell us what kind of cables were used at that time, and how did you expand to the nuclear cables of today?

Edgar Heinrichs: In 1747, the native Bourse aux family started with the production of hemp ropes, which were mainly used in the maritime sector.

At the beginning of the 20th century the same owner family, Bourseaux, gained lots of experience with the stranding tech-nology and they launched the production of simple electrical cables.

Further on, the products were adapted to the constant technical development of electro-technology and later also to communi-cation technology. At the beginning of the 1980s these products were designed to meet the strict requirements of the first nuclear

power stations in Belgium: Doel and Tihange.

DPS: Is Eupen only located in Belgium?

Edgar Heinrichs: The entire management, administration

and production processes are at the same location, the city of

Eupen in the German-speaking area of Belgium. Our name KA-

BELWERK EUPEN also comes from this geographical situation,

and most of our customers just call our company “EUPEN”.

Additional sales offices and logistic centers are scattered world-

wide. You will find the name “EUPEN” in nearly all those external

company names.


DPS: How large is your company?

Edgar Heinrichs: At present, some 930 people work in the company located in Eupen. This is a huge number if one

considers that EUPEN is still a private company.

The company area extends over 335,000m², of which approxi-

mately 145,000m² is buildings and production lines.

DPS: How many types of cables have your factory designed and manufactured?

Edgar Heinrichs: Due to the widespread product range it is quite difficult to give a concrete number during more than 100

years of Eupen’s history. Let’s just say that some 32,882 differ-

ent cable calculations can be found in our system today.

DPS: A few companies manufacture the nuclear cable, in particular the K1. Can you tell us if Eupen is involved in the design of the cable as well?

Edgar Heinrichs: As with all the other types, the nucle-

ar cables are developed, manufactured and tested in our own

installations in Eupen. Even the compounds for isolation and

sheath materials have been developed in our in-house labora-

tory. In the same way, the cable constructions are defined in our

own design department, the production is done in-house, from

the wire drawing to the outer sheath. All necessary tests are per-

formed in strict accordance with the ISO 9000 rules.

Basically, we follow the relevant cable standards such as IEC or EN, both the nuclear standards IEEE 383/323 or RCC-E, and the fire standards according to IEC or EN. Customer specific re-quirements are regularly taken into consideration.

The specific cable range K1 is produced with particularly close attention and care, as it will be involved in the safe function of nuclear power plants.

DPS: Are your users located mostly in Europe or elsewhere?

Edgar Heinrichs: As long as we can meet the relevant standards, we are present world-wide. One should know that we

limit our production to metric sections as well as to the standards

IEC, EN and most of the common European national standards.

For the Chinese market, we supplied to SNERDI and to JNPCE for the Tianwan 1&2 project in 2003.

DPS: Your nuclear cables are halogen free, can you tell us what is the main difference with the US-based cables?

Edgar Heinrichs: For many years, halogen-free safety cables for public buildings have been an important market for

EUPEN. We have profited from this experience while deciding to

go for a nuclear cable range too.

As everyone knows, the nuclear world is divided into a halo-

gen-free solution (used in most of the European countries) and a

non-halogen-free solution (practiced in the USA and the Russian

area).

EUPEN exclusively supplies halogen-free products to the nu-

clear market and we are committed to contribute this way to the

general safety of nuclear power stations.

DPS: Can you tell us about your cooperation with Westinghouse, are you involved in the AP1000 project?

Edgar Heinrichs: In the frame of the Ringhals project,

Westinghouse Sweden is a good and faithful customer. We

confront with the specifications of the new type AP1000. We are

able to fulfill the conditions for the cables in this type of reactor.

Additionally, each reactor will foresee project-related and nation-

al specifications.

DPS: Since Fukushima, many safety aspects have been required in the design and manufacturing of components. Have you been impacted by the new safety requirements?

Edgar Heinrichs: Not directly, the testing and safety

standards for nuclear cables have always been very high and

demanding, and concern the lifetime of the cables in a nuclear

environment, their behavior in case of fire and their functionality

in case of a nuclear accident (DBE).

DPS: Particularly regarding fire, f low (inundation) and LOCA resistance, did you see new specifications?

Edgar Heinrichs: Basically, the standard IEEE 383/323 as well as the RCC-E (France) dominates in this field. Addition-

ally, specific requirements of the different reactor types will have

to be met. These requirements concern the radiation doses, the

temperature and pressure profiles and other functional requests.

EUPEN has always been anxious to test the products according

to the parameters of world-wide existing projects and reactors.

LOCA-test device at Kabelwerk Eupen laboratory


DPS: How much cable is used in a nuclear power plant and what kind of cable?

Edgar Heinrichs: It is very difficult to indicate an exact amount. We produce a huge number of different cable types which will be used in the most diverse applications and in lots of different plant installations.

The whole cable provision never comes from one single suppli-

er, but as the buildings in an NPP become more and more com-

pact, the actual cable need shrinks too. This need seems to be

around 120-150km of K1 cable per unit.

DPS: Can you tell us the difference between K2 and K3 cable?

Edgar Heinrichs: This is quite simple: due to the location

where they are used, K2 cables must have a certain radiation

resistance, whereas K3 cables are installed, in principle, in ra-

diation-free environments. However, both types are subject to a

very strict production supervision and follow-up.

DPS: A few companies in China can manufacture the K1 cable, but still the EPC prefer to import the K1 from foreign companies, including Eupen. How do you explain this?

Edgar Heinrichs: Long experience and references are

Production plant in Eupen - Belgium

crucial factors. In the long-term, it will also be a political decision about the “local content” of a nuclear project in China. At that

time, cables coming from purely Chinese manufacturers will get

their chance.

DPS: Eupen is one the rare foreign companies that have the HAF 604 certification. Since when have you been doing business in China?

Edgar Heinrichs: We obtained the HAF 604 certificate

with N°1008 in 2010. This certification is valid until 2015. With-

out this certification any export to China in the frame of nuclear

power projects would be absolutely impossible.

DPS: The competition for K3 cable is local and the K1 is international, how can you show your competitive advantage?

Edgar Heinrichs: We respect the Chinese K3 market and

therefore concentrate on the K1 sector, as long as the tender

allows its separation from K2/K3. We take advantage of our long

experience with these K1 products, but we also know that the

Chinese K1 market is a target for many international players.

Another important factor is a permanent presence near to the

Chinese customers in order to obtain and retain their confi-

dence.

Fields of interests:

DPS: China will build more AP1000s, and other Gen 3 nuclear power plants. Does this strategy affect the technical requirements for your company?

Edgar Heinrichs: We expect the inquiries for these plants

of the so-called 3rd generation. These specifications will then

show us if the solution which we offered in the past will still be

applicable.

In terms of safety, we expect higher requirements, which is due

to the Fukushima accident.

DPS: What are the main hurdles your company faces in China as regards to the competition?

Edgar Heinrichs: As I said at the beginning, EUPEN is

a family company. Our company’s structure permits only a limit-

ed number of personnel and capital dedicated to this large, but

quite adventurous market such as in China.

The language and the mode of expression can be a handicap.

Even if one agrees on the common denominator of the English

language, misunderstandings and different interpretations are

almost inevitable - technically competent translator services are

scarce.

Adapting Low-Cost Infrared Cameras for Use in Harsh Decommissioning Environments

By Kevin L. Young, PE / Mike Hart / Kirk J. Dooley / Jeffrey D. Jones

INTRODUCTION

The cost of infrared camera technology continues to drop while

image resolution and processing capabilities increase making

this technology economically feasible for use in a wide range of

nuclear reactor decommissioning applications. This paper de-

scribes the adaptation of relatively low-cost infrared cameras for

use in harsh environments such as nuclear reactor decommis-

sioning. Specifically, the paper describes the use of an adapted

infrared camera to remotely monitor sodium treatment activities

within the Experimental Breeder Reactor II (EBR II) reactor ves-

sel.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTUAL WORK

System Description

In the spring of 2011, the engineering and technical imaging

services company, Communication Designs, Inc. under contract

to CH2M-WG, Idaho LLC developed an infrared camera system

capable of operating inside the EBR II reactor vessel. The sys-

tem was developed quickly and for less than $30,000 by modify-

ing a relatively inexpensive FLIR M-Series (M-626L) long-wave,

thermal camera and adding an inert gas pressurization system.

Operating Environment

The camera system had to operate safely and reliably in the

harsh environment inside the EBR II reactor vessel during liquid

treatment of residual sodium filled components. Elements of the

harsh environment within the reactor vessel included:

Elevated radiation levels as high as 300 Rad

High humidity in excess of 95% RH

Highly caustic sodium hydroxide splashes created by the

reacting sodium

Highly acidic spray from the treatment solution

Potentially explosive hydrogen gas created during the sodi-

um reaction

Splashes of molten sodium metal

System Modifications

Modifications to the infrared camera included sealing the exteri-

or camera housing and drilling vent holes within the housing to

maintain a nitrogen purge. The focal length was adjusted on the

visible and infrared cameras to optimize viewing objects within

the reactor vessel. A 34-foot boom and custom camera interface

allowed for precise vertical positioning as well as purge gas de-

livery to the camera housing. Due to the potential hydrogen gas

environment, the purge unit, made by Pepperl+Fuchs, would

automatically kill power to the camera system if it detected a

breach in the camera housing. Figure 1 shows the modified

FLIR IR camera.

RESULTS On 2 October 2011, the modified infrared camera system was

lowered into the EBR II reactor vessel where it operated for 22

days supplying infrared and visible video images to the decom-

missioning team at remote stations outside the main contain-

ment dome. The camera system provided valuable, real-time

information to the decommissioning team allowing visual verifi-

cation of sodium treatment progress while surviving the harsh

environment created by the sodium treatment process. Figure 2

shows an IR image of melted sodium flowing from the Intermedi-

ate Heat Exchanger within the primary vessel.

The infrared camera was able to continue imaging key compo-

nents within the reactor after the visible camera was obscured

by smoke created during the sodium treatment process.

Lessons LearnedLessons learned included finding that the vanadium oxide focal

plane array in the infrared camera indicated no visible degra-

dation due to the radiation field making it a suitable choice for

use in radiation environments. The CMOS sensor in the visible

camera was degraded over time by the radiation field. Further

research is proposed to quantify and compare the effects of ra-

diation on infrared cameras using amorphous silicon focal plane

arrays (the other major type of infrared focal plane array) versus

Figure 1. Modified FLIR IR Camera


those using vanadium oxide focal plane arrays.

Another significant finding from the work included learning that radiometric based temperature readings from the infrared cameras

were consistently more accurate than readings obtained from contact thermocouples for surfaces visible to the infrared cameras. If

the emissivity of the target surface is established, infrared cameras will generally provide a more accurate temperature reading com-

pared to thermocouples.

The Dismantling of

José Cabrera Nuclear Power Plant (Spain) By Rodríguez Silva, Manuel

INTRODUCTION

ENRESA is the National Spanish Agency in charge of the dis-

mantling of Nuclear Facilities, previous transfer of the license to

operate the plant from the Utility to ENRESA.

Construction of José Cabrera Nuclear Power Plant, owned by

Gas Natural, began in 1964 and the plant went into commercial

operation in 1969. The nuclear steam supply system was de-

signed and supplied by Westinghouse and is made up of a light

PWR reactor with an authorized thermal output of 510 MW and

an electrical power of 160 MW and all the auxiliary and safety

systems required for the efficient operation of the facility under

safe conditions.

On April 30th 2006, José Cabrera NPP was definitively shutdown,

and two years later, on April 30th 2008, ENRESA requested to the

Ministry of Energy the transfer of the license to operate the plant,

along with the corresponding authorization for performance of

the Dismantling and Decommissioning Plan.

On February 1st 2010, ENRESA was authorized to initiate the

dismantling of the José Cabrera Facility. The spent fuel has been

Fig. 1: Main Activities of the Project


removed from the pool and is presently stored in casks at an on-

site dry storage facility. Preparatory activities have almost been

completed, including the modification of systems and auxiliary

facilities for waste and material management. Main challenges

of the project include the removal of major components (vessel,

steam generator, pressurizer, main pump and primary loop), and

the use of large containers (CE-2b) to reduce segmentation of

activated parts.

CONTENT

The Dismantling and Decommissioning Project presented for

the José Cabrera NPP is a dynamic process that consists of a

sequence of activities including, among others, disassembly, de-

contamination, declassification, demolition and the restoration of

the site.

The main activities of the project may be broken down into

seven major groups, two of them required during the overall

process (Radiological Characterization and Radioactive Waste

Management).

These set of activities will be carried out within the framework of

different partial dismantling plans that establish the main crite-

ria, methodology and previous necessary analysis. These plans

include the available technical solutions and different options,

identifying work interferences and planning for the main activi-

ties.

Fig. 2: Program

The dismantling project is scheduled to take six years as from

the transfer of the license to operate the facility from Gas Natu-

ral Fenosa to ENRESA and has a budget or 135 M€, spent fuel

management not included.

CONCLUSIONS

The dismantling and decommissioning project of José Cabrera

NPP involve new challenges for ENRESA, such as:

• Removal and management of large components Manage-

ment of Intermediate Level Wastes not acceptable in El

Cabril Repository

• Volume optimization of activated wastes by using new con-

tainers

• Significant reduction in the number of safety systems and

technical specifications from the operating phase

• Definition of systems important for the radiological protec-

tion which are controlled by surveillance programs

ENRESA will face these new challenges on the basis of the

experience acquired in other projects implemented up to date

(Vandellós I NPP and PIMIC), as well as other international

experience available.

President of CGMA indicated the redundant capacity in the nuclear power equipment manufacturing industry

Sui Yongbin, the president of China General Machinery Industry

Association (CGMA) and the chief engineer of China Machinery

Industry Federation indicated at the 8th China Nuclear Energy

Congress that China’s nuclear power equipment industry has

redundant production capacity.Mr. Sui said that about 12 sets of the major equipment for the

nuclear islands such as castings and forgings, reactor pressure

vessels, steam generators, reactor internals and control-rod

drive packages can be produced per year, which is more than

sufficient to satisfy the national objective of completing 12 pairs

of 1000MW nuclear units annually, based on our current manu-

facturing capacity.

However, the capacity for the reactor internals and the CRDs

still remains weak compared to the other components. In addi-

tion, the primary pump of the nuclear island is still manufactured

by the joint venture as it remains at the stage of introducing

technology and then absorbing it.

Mr. Sui Yongbin added that the localization of nuclear-related

I&C systems and the key nuclear-grade instruments is not easy

to realize and most of this type of equipment depends on import.

But almost 80% of our nuclear-grade pumps and valves can be

procured domestically.

In the long run, the industrial steam turbine and the generator

for the conventional island can be completely realized locally

with the annual capacity of 12 to 15 sets.

The emergency diesel generator sets for the BOP system are on

track for localization.

Chrome-plating Surface Treatment Technology: the Guard-ian Angel of the Nuclear Power Products

The AP1000, nuclear power’s third-generation technology, is the

most advanced and safest worldwide. Compared to the 2G tech-

nology AP600, it has more advanced designs and precautions

against accidents and higher requirements for security and civil

engineering. Nantong Shenhai Science and Industrial Technolo-

gy Co., Ltd (referred to as Shenhai) process the AP1000 nuclear

power products and provides the surface treatment technology

for the CRDM, reactor internals and the explosion valves.

The fastener surface treatment technology for the reactor inter-

nals is one of the key technologies to be developed among the

APWR national major specific programs. It involves electroplated

hard chrome and the phosphorization. The chromeplating sur-

face treatment technology for the AP1000 reactor internals is a

major core technology and also the cutting-edge surface treat-

ment technology at present. This technology is acclaimed as the

“Guardian Angel” of the nuclear power products as it is an essen-

tial and necessary technology to guarantee the NPP operation.

Shenhai invested a lot in R&D and has now established the

specific workshop adaptable to nuclear power products and con-

tinuous plating production lines. Finally, it has made a significant

breakthrough in this technology: the chrome plating has reached

the requirements of the international AP1000 standards; the

hardness, abradability and bending resistance of the chromium

coating has been guaranteed.

Shenhai’s products have been acknowledged by CNNC and

CGNPC for the chromeplating surface treatment technology

which has satisfied the requirements of the 3G AP1000 standard

and changed the situation of the traditional surface treatment

techniques, thus it fills the blank of the domestic electroplated

hard chrome products in the nuclear power fields and ends the

history of depending on imported driver reactor internals.

Nowadays the electroplated and Parkerizing AP1000 products in

3G reactors by Shenhai have been applied to Sanmen NPP and

Haiyang NPP which are the first AP1000 nuclear power projects

put into commercial use in the world.

Nuclear reboot gains pace

The restarting of China’s nuclear power sector has made sub-

stantial progress as construction of two reactors resumed over

the weekend. They’re at Fuqing, in Fujian province, and Yangji-

ang, in Guangdong province.

The reactors, which belong to China National Nuclear Corp and

China Guangdong Nuclear Power Holding Co, were approved for

construction to commence in the second half of 2011 but were

halted after the Fukushima nuclear crisis in Japan.

Another reactor in Rongcheng, in Shandong province, that had

also received approval, may also resume construction within this

year.

In late October, the State Council approved a development plan

and a security plan for the country’s nuclear power sector by

2020, calling for the reactor construction of the approved projects

to be restarted first.

Analysts say a key stage of the reinstatement depends on the

approval of new reactors. The first of these to be decided will be

reactor number three in Tianwan, Jiangsu province, which was

originally scheduled for construction starting in Dec 2012.

Two Nuclear Power Projects Gain Environmental Clearance

The Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) plans to ap-

prove the environmental effect report on a flood control project at

Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant, according to the MEP’s website.

This is the technical innovation project undertaken by Qinshan

Nuclear Power Co., Ltd. and won’t cover additional areas. The

construction mainly includes increasing the height of the seawall

in Qianshan Phase I; water retaining engineering on the old Hu-

Hang road. The environmental report shows that this project will

be free from contamination after completion and is acceptable

to the environment if it adopts the corresponding environmental

protection measures during construction.

Meanwhile, another project—No.3 and No.4 reactors at Tianwan

Nuclear Power Plant—has also obtained environmental clear-

ance.

Several nuclear power projects have passed the recent environ-

mental examination recently, which is a clear sign that the re-

start of the nuclear power programs is officially on track.

The Longest Turbine Last-Stage Blade in the World Posed in Shanghai

ALSTOM has introduced an L75 turbine last-stage blade with

a length of 75 inches which covers an exhaust area of 58m2 in

Shanghai. This is currently the longest such product in the world

with the largest exhaust area. The last stage blade is an import-

ant part of the low-pressure module of the turbine in the nuclear

power plant, which is designed to convert thermal power in the

steam to electrical energy.

The L75 last-stage blade is used for the low-pressure cylinder

of the Arabella turbine and was developed on the basis of the

current 69-inch blade product. Under the same condition, the

improved LP75-type blade’s unit power output can increase by

10,000 KW. It will create an expected additional revenue of 4 mil-

lion Euros per year which is equal to one-year’s electricity con-

sumption for 60,000 Chinese families.

China National Nuclear Power IPO begins the Audit Phase

China National Nuclear Power Co. the leading nuclear energy

developer is planning an initial public offering to support its nu-

clear power projects.

The company plans to be listed on the Shanghai Stock Ex-

change, raising tens of billions yuan to fund the nuclear power

plants under construction, including Fuqing nuclear power proj-

ect, Qinshan NPP expansion project, Sanmen nuclear project

Phase I and Changjiang nuclear power project.

On December 7 China National Nuclear Power jumped into the

list of the audited companies released by China Securities Reg-

ulatory Commission (CSRC). It has been five years from plan-

ning listing to submitting the materials and then to obtaining the

acceptance. The application materials were accepted by CSRC,

which means China National Nuclear Power IPO project finally

comes to the audit phase.

It is said there are totally 808 audited companies on the list of the

CSRC. Judging from the review pace of CSRC, China National

Nuclear Power will have a long way to go to the issuing phase.

China National Nuclear Power Co. was jointly set up by CNNC,

COSCO and China Three Gorges Corp and others among which

CNNC is the holding company. Until the end of 2011, China Na-

tional Nuclear Power had 13 wholly-owned subsidiaries and 1

joint-stock company; it controls 9 nuclear units in commission

with a total installed capacity of 649.6 GW; and holds 10 units

under construction with an installed capacity of 1028 GW.

According to the information disclosed by China National Nuclear

Power, the nuclear power plants under its operation include Qian-

shan NPP—the first independently designed and operated nucle-

ar plant; Qinshan Phase II—the first independently designed and

operated large commercial nuclear plant; Qinshan Phase III—the

first heavy water reactor connecting the domestic engineering

management with the international management; and Tianwan

NPP—the first one to introduce the full digital I&C system. Those

that are under construction include: Sanmen nuclear project—the

first Gen-III AP1000 technology plant in the world; Fuqing nuclear

project; Qinshan NPP expansion project; and Hainan Changjiang

nuclear project.

A senior investor analyzed that among the listed companies in

the power sector, the fossil-power-oriented companies are more

sensitive to the fluctuating coal price while the hydro-power

companies are easily influenced by the seasonal variation of the

upland water. By contrast, nuclear power listed companies are

rarely influenced by external risks so they usually have more out-

standing achievements.

Three to five uranium mining projects might be launched during the 12th Five-Year Period

A “National Large Uranium Mines Bases Construction Seminar”

has been held. It was sponsored by the Chinese Nuclear Society

Uranium Mining Geology Branch and the Uranium Mining and

Metallurgy Branch, and was organized by the Beijing Research

Institute of Uranium Geology (BRIUG). Zhang Jindai, the deputy

director and chief engineer of CNNC Geology Business Depart-

ment, said that the active propelling of large uranium mines bas-

es construction had a significant meaning to China, and it would

not only guarantee our uranium supply but also regularize the

uranium enterprises.

An industry insider pointed out that the Chinese nuclear industry

has developed fast, so there was a higher requirement of urani-

um resources guarantee. He pointed out that the natural urani-

um industry has entered an important period of strategic oppor-

tunities to accelerate development, how to improve the domestic

uranium resources to ensure the supply capacity has become

an urgent problem in the development of nuclear power.

Zhang Jindai wrote an article called Rational Distribution, Sci-

entific Programming and Active Push of Large Uranium Mines

Bases Construction, in which he suggested redefining the large

uranium base. A large uranium base should possess an output

of more than 100,000 tons and covers one to two large-and-me-

dium size backbone deposits. There will be three levels in terms

of its natural output, which is 300-500 tons per year, 500-800

tons per year and over 800 tons per year, and the service period

will last no less than 15 years.

According to Mr. Zhang’s article, China has verified 350 ura-

nium deposits, among which 27% are large-and-medium size

deposits accounting for 77% of the total resource reserves. Our

uranium deposits are close together, some are only a thousand

meters apart. For example, there are more than 20 verified ura-

nium deposits in Xiangshan, Jiangxi province, with a reserve of

30,000 tons, the longest distance between two deposits is only

10,000 meters, offering favorable conditions for exploration.

An insider said, the first step for the propelling of large bases is

to set up regional uranium base construction headquarters to

enhance the coordination.

Headquarters have been set up in Jiangxi province, Inner Mon-

golia Autonomous Region and Guangdong province. The west

and north parts of China will also speed up the construction of

headquarters. For now, the uranium exploration processes con-

tinue smoothly in Ili, Sinkiang.

The insiders also suggested that three to five uranium mining

projects might be launced during the 12th Five-Year Period.

Public information reveals that CNNC Geology Business De-

partment signed 11 agreements in 2012, and key breakthroughs

were made in the cooperation with China National Petroleum

Corporation (CNPC), Sinopec, Shenhua Group, Central Geolo-

gy Exploration Fund, China Geological Survey and local nuclear

exploration units.


Significance of Management of Nuclear Power DCS Project Progress

The progress management for DCS engineering project is an

important part in the nuclear power project management sys-

tem which attracts an increasing focus for almost every project

builder. The digital I &C system controls more than 300 systems

and nearly tens of thousands sets of equipment in the nuclear

power plant, so it plays a role like the “nerve center”. Also, the

installation of DCS system is a critical path during the nuclear

power project construction. The management of the DCS prog-

ress directly links to the investment benefits of the nuclear pow-

er project and is one of the key factors to ensure the success

of the whole nuclear power project. With the employing of the

full-digital I &C system in the domestic nuclear power plant, DCS

progress management will grow gradually mature in design, pro-

curement, construction and commissioning.

Currently among the 15 reactor units in operation, only Tianwan

and Ling’ao Phase II projects adopted the full-package DCS. Ex-

China and Russia will build a Floating Nuclear Power Plant

China and Russia plan to work together on a floating nuclear

power plant. China is designated to build tugboats while Russia

will be dedicated to the plant’s construction under the condition

of not transferring the nuclear techniques. The project was an-

nounced by the vice president of Rosatom at the Starting Cere-

mony for Tianwan Phase II project in Jiangsu Province.

It is said that this floating power plant will be based on the manu-

facturing process used in building the small-scale nuclear reactor

which has been in operation for several years in icebreakers and

submarines. It is slated that Russia will produce the small-scale

nuclear power plants in batches by 2014.

Enjoying a 36-year operational lifetime, the floating nuclear pow-

er plant has a relatively low construction cost and is ecologically

friendly. It can provide power and central heating for small towns

and villages having populations of around 100,000 people. The

plant will need no refueling within at least ten years. The con-

struction cost will be around $600 million together with the ex-

pense used on the shoreside construction. The project will recov-

er its costs within ten years.

It has been reported that Russia is preparing to export the float-

ing nuclear power plant under the condition that Rosatom will be

the company that fully manages the whole operational process

(including construction, operation and personnel training). In ad-

dition, the delivery of the nuclear techniques and used materials

is not included when exporting this type of power plant.


French media announced 80% of French orders for the nuclear products would come from China in the coming 15 years

According to French media, Chinese orders will be “life or death”

for French enterprises within the next 15 years with 80% of or-

ders for nuclear products coming from China.

China is expected to build half of the world’s nuclear reactors in

the following 30 years. China plans to build tens of nuclear reac-

tors in the near future.

Some French insiders suggested that if France would like to

occupy the Chinese market in the long term, it could transfer its

technology to a certain degree, then invest the benefits of that

to technical R & D, thus French enterprises could maintain their

technological advantages and form a virtuous cycle in the nucle-

ar industry.

Tractebel 工程——工程界的权威

Tractebel 工程是法国阿海珐集团的长期合作伙伴，该公司参与了中

国岭澳项目，为该项目提供工程服务。Tractebel 公司通过签署技术转移

协议赢得了该项目的合作权。目前，该公司又参与到台山 EPR 项目中，负

责反应堆建设的土建工程研究。该公司的国际合作项目带来的收益占公司

总营业额的 46%，而仅核能部门的收益就占公司的 29%。现在其核能部门

计划拓展中国市场，涵盖核能行业多个领域，如项目工程、燃料及堆芯管理、

堆芯优化研究、燃料和废料储存及处理、辐射废料管理及退役、核工程培

训等。

Belgoprocess——技术推动型、废料处

理领域的首选合作伙伴

Belgoprocess 公司与中国核工业集团（CNNC）及 Nukem

Technologies GmbH 公司就一个热解厂的废料后处理签订了协议。该公司

最近与 ATAL 工程公司合作为香港环保部与设计并制造了低放废料最终处

理设备。Belgoprocess 公司是负责 Eurochemic 退役的领头企业，该厂

是 1957 年在比利时德赛尔建立的第一个后处理厂。最近该公司又参与了

Belgonucleaire 集团核设备的退役项目，中核集团对此项目产生了浓厚的

兴趣。

COURTOY 公司——世界核燃料及 MOX

旋转式压片机的领头军

德国 GEA 集团最近收购了 COURTOY 公司，该公司位于离比利时布鲁塞

尔不远的德国哈雷市，有着先进的燃料芯块制造技术。该公司生产各种核

燃料，与中国包头厂和宜宾厂建立了合作，供货项目有加拿大的 Candu 反

应堆、俄罗斯的 VVER、法国的 M310 及其它反应堆。COURTOY 洞察中国市

场发展趋势，预期中国本土化竞争会日趋激烈，所以很早就在上海建立了

位于欧洲中心的比利时在与中国核能行业的合

作方面一直占据领导地位

SCK•CEN（比利时核子研究中心）成立于 1952 年，是第一批致力于核

能源研究的科研机构。

该机构曾负责反应堆 BR1, BR2 和 BR3 的运行：BR1 现在用于设备校准

工作；BR2 为核医学行业生产放射性同位素钼 -99；BR3（试验压水堆）是

第一个用 MOX 作为燃料的压水反应堆。

比利时其它企业也在核能行业中做着贡献——向中国转移先进技术，

贡献专业知识。如负责土建工作的 Tractebel 集团、进行废料再处理的

Belgoprocess 公司、生产核燃料的 GEA Courtoy 公司、负责冷却塔项目的

Hamon 公司以及生产电缆的 KWE Eupen 公司。

SCK•CEN 是比利时科技在中国的领头军

比利时与中国在核能行业的合作要归功于 SCK•CEN 做出的杰出贡献。

该机构向中国核能行业的各个领域提供专业技能和知识，如辐射防护、辐

射监测、核安全、核技术、创新理念、核计量学、核医学、核设施退役、

放射性废料管理等。

2010 年 10 月，中国国家总理温家宝正式访问比利时，会见了比利时

国王阿尔贝二世及首相莱特姆。双方领导就核能源签署了合作协议。

SCK•CEN 就 Myrrha 项目签署了两个国际协议。第一个协议是与中国科

学院签署的，当时中方认为该项目可以引领他们向核废料处理技术更近一

步；第二个协议的内容是与 CNNC 合作建立生产 MOX 的试验工厂，并实现

MOX 在中国核反应堆的应用。

现在这两个项目都在有序进行。2012 年 5 月，中国副总理李克强正式

访问欧洲，他反复强调中国希望从比利时引进更多的技术。

工厂，一来可以为客户提供更好的服务，二来可以维护其旋转式压片机制

造商的领先地位。

该公司在 MOX 燃料制造用旋转式压片机方面拥有的独特技术使其成为

中国核工业集团子公司的重要合作伙伴。该公司的技术总监，Tonie Van

Zegbroeck 先生将会在本刊详细介绍其公司的业务。

哈蒙欧洲热工——冷却技术的集成者

上世纪80年代，哈蒙向中国的火力发电厂转移冷却塔技术。20年后，

中方要求哈蒙为内陆核电站建立世界最高最安全的自然通风冷却塔。该公

司的一项最新技术——“集水装置”吸引了中国众多企业，如 CNPE（中国

核电工程有限公司）、CNPEC（中广核工程有限公司）、SNPDRI（国家电

力规划设计研究院）。这项技术将被应用于国内外的冷却项目。尽管福

岛事件放缓了内陆核电项目发展的脚步，还是有企业要求哈蒙为其提供核

安全级冷却塔技术，该技术曾在法国“Civaux 核电站”得以应用，如主泵

的冷却剂技术及其可以抵御各种突发事故的构造等。

哈蒙在离秦山不远的海盐核工业园建了一座工厂。该厂生产冷却

塔用部件，并在北京培训了一支支持团队。哈蒙总裁 Jean-Francois

Lambiliotte 说：“我们要在世界核能行业设计建造最大、最高、最安

全的冷却塔，我们将继续向中国转移我们的先进技术。”哈蒙技术部的

Jean-Christian Martin 先生和 Eric Binard 先生将会在本刊就该公司的

发展历程做出详细讲述。

Kabelwerk Eupen：260 多年的电缆制

造经验

Kabelwerk Eupen公司的历史可以追溯到1747年。那时的 Bourseaux

家族拥有一个小型车间，生产各种麻绳和缆绳。经过几十年的经验积累，

直到 19 世纪末，该家族的 Carl 和 August 兄弟开始生产电缆。上世纪 80

年代早期，该公司向欧洲核电站输送安全级电缆，近期与田湾一期核电站

建立了合作。

面临中国同行的强劲竞争，Kabelwerk Eupen 公司制定了向中国市场

拓展的宏观战略计划。该公司的生产部总监 Edgar Heinrichs 先生将在本

刊为您独家讲述 Eupen 公司的发展史及其未来在中国的发展计划。

欧洲一些国家暂缓了核电发展计划，预示着它们本土的一些优秀核能

企业可能将“无用武之地”。

比利时自 20 世纪 50 年代就是核电行业的领头军，现在仍致力于投

资核能研究，如核能第四代反应堆、国际热核聚变实验堆（ITER）计划。

中国市场的快速发展为像比利时这样的发达国家的成熟技术出口创造了机

会。同时也要感谢比利时瓦隆出口局（AWEX）和比利时法兰德斯大区投资

经贸局（FIT）等政府部门给予本国企业的大力支持。拓展中国市场不仅

能为为中国带来先进技术，还增加了比利时的就业岗位。

其它欧洲国家（如德国、瑞士、意大利）也应效仿比利时支持本国企

业向中国转移技术、拓展中国市场，而不再放任一小部分利益团体掩藏其

先进的技术和专业知识。

55 专访

DPS：哈蒙能否提供冷却塔的土木工程和建造？

Eric Binard 先生：我们的工作涵盖整个流程。哈蒙是唯一掌握热

工和土木工程技术的企业。土木工程作业往往被分包出去，这也是我们策

略的一部分——把热工和土木工程分开。我们是自身领域的首要承包商，

不遗余力地满足客户的需求。

Jean-Christian Martin 先生 : 如果终端用户需要，我们提供

冷却塔相关的全套服务，包括设计、建造和内部构件的安装。在中国，我

们很少提及这项服务，因为设计是由设计院实施，施工是由国内的建筑公

司承担。将来，如果市场需要，哈蒙也可以提供现场服务，就像我们在欧洲，

美国和印度市场上做的一样。这样的话，哈蒙将寻找一个合作伙伴来实施

土建工作。在中国市场就有这个可能性。

DPS：哈蒙还向核工业领域提供其他的什么服务？

Jean-Christian Martin 先生 : 哈蒙能够提供冷却塔相关的各

项服务，比如修理和维护。中国（核电市场）的冷却塔都是新建的，暂时

不会有维修需求，但是数年后肯定会有。我们在其他市场比如常规电厂有

这种需要，例如在欧洲，冷却塔检修就是哈蒙的一项重要服务活动，有时，

只需要保持冷却塔始终具备同样性能，但有时需要升级一座 30 年的冷却

塔的内部构件以提高性能，这也是哈蒙能够提供的。

DPS：哈蒙的研发策略是什么？研发费用占年度预算的多少？

Eric Binard 先生：研发费用占营业额的 1.5%-2%，但是占工厂产

品总产值的15%-20%。我们的企业不是仅仅依赖于现有的或经验证的技术。

有的人可能认为我们的研发进程缓慢，但我们一直不懈努力以保持竞争力

并略领先于其他企业。哈蒙在研究领域投资很大。

DPS：Binard 先生，您能介绍一下自己吗？

Eric Binard 先生：1985 年加入哈蒙时我是一名冷却塔热试验员，

1988 年转到销售部，主要在巴基斯坦和日本工作，负责大型项目产品的出

口。后来我又转到了气冷式热交换器（干式冷却器）事业部，在这个部门

做生产部经理已经有七八年了，主要负责用于石油和天然气工业的空气冷

却器以及气体压缩机和精炼厂市场。在 Hamon 劳动力成本低廉化、生产多

样化的策略指导下，我去哈蒙在印度博帕尔的一家合资企业任职了两年，

我们在那里建造了一个新的工厂并安装了机器，后来我提议负责孟买的冷

却塔项目，这样我重新回到了这个部门。当时，我们收购了一家小公司，

做了技术转让，也培训了一批工程师。2001 年，作为核电站生产线小组的

负责人，我回到了比利时。自此，我一直负责比利时、法国、土耳其、意

大利和俄罗斯的冷却塔相关的全面工作。

DPS：哈蒙在国际核电市场上的表现如何？

Eric Binard 先生：简单说，我们参与了核电站第三回路的冷却过

程，我们的冷却塔是冒着白烟的大烟囱，从某种程度上说，我们在“制造

烟雾”。我们供应产品的第一个核电站是法国里昂附近的比热电站。之后，

我们相继给西班牙，德国，比利时和美国的核电站供应产品。

　　哈蒙的故事有趣的是哈蒙的两个兄弟 Achille 和 Fernand 也是 Hamon

现任 CEO 的曾祖叔父都出生在法国的布列塔尼，1904 年，Achille 在法

国成立公司，两年后，Fernand 在比利时成立了同样的公司。这两家公司

都是为新的工业工艺供应冷水塔，但 Achille 只是专注于法国市场，而

Fernand 的目光并不仅限于比利时，而是转向德国，然后又很快的打入美

国市场。这也是哈蒙开发的最早的两个外国市场。

Hamon 在全球拥有员工 1900 名左右，目前仅哈蒙欧洲热工就有 200

名员工，他们的工作地点在法国和比利时。我们在法国、印度和中国建有

冷却塔设备制造厂，在比利时我们有一个研发中心。

哈蒙欧洲热工 Eric Binard 先生以及

Jean-Christian Martin 先生专访

56专访

DPS：哈蒙通过研发都获得了哪些解决方案？

Eric Binard 先生：有一个例子可以说明我们取得的成就。德国汉

堡附近的玛堡核电站，Vattenfall Europe 公司要求排放的“烟”尽量不

可视。为达到此目的，哈蒙设计了（现在正在建造）一种通风消雾冷却塔。

这种冷却塔的设计独一无二，因为它为玛堡电站两个独立的 800 兆瓦电力

厂区服务。这种概念的冷却塔有良好的社会反响，不但看不到排放的烟，

也满足电站对高度的限制（塔高低于电站主建筑）和地面情况。

DPS：这种解决方法是否适用于核电？

Eric Binard 先生：是的，我们给法国电力公司希农核电站（卢瓦

尔河谷附近的一个 4X1000MW 电站）提供了一个相似的解决方案。因为附

近的卢瓦尔城堡是著名的旅游景点，所以不能有高大的可视建筑。因此，

我们就提供了一种看不见高大的塔身的冷却系统。

DPS：冷却塔是否对环境有害？

Eric Binard 先生：没有，它是百分之百环保的。这是建造冷却塔

的重中之重。从河流汲取的冷水流入冷凝器然后阻止热水排放到河流里，

我们的冷却塔只需利用这个过程中 4% 的水即可。我们排放到河里的水没

有增加任何有害元素，因此对环境无害。我们曾经给一个核电站设计建造

了一种专门的冷却塔，在把水排放到河里之前收集水装置会把水先冷却。

DPS：您能介绍一下哈蒙在中国核电市场上的情况吗？

Jean-Christian Martin 先生 : 2007-2008 年之前，中国只有

沿海核电站，所以不需要冷却塔。后来，中国政府决定扩展核电站项目，

建设内陆核电站，由于不能把水直接排放到河流里，所以对冷却塔需求应

运而生。如果排放的热水温度太高，就可能破坏生态平衡，但问题是需要

被冷却的水量越大，核电站需要的冷却塔就越大，所以中国的用户考虑能

否建一个比常规火电厂使用的更大的冷却塔呢？或者能否为一个反应堆建

造两个冷却塔呢？

我们与山东电力工程咨询院（简称 SDEPCI）取得了联系，他们想知

道针对冷却塔的大小问题，哈蒙有什么样的解决方案。与 SDEPCI 的第一次

沟通帮助我们获得了设计江西彭泽核电站“超大”自然通风冷却塔的合同。

这种技术是我们几年前在法国推广的一种。这种科技可以使冷却塔节省很

多抽运成本和能量。当时国家核电技术公司正好成立，SDEPCI 的部分部门

也并入国家电力规划设计研究院（SNPDRI），SNPDRI 对这种技术很感兴趣，

我们与他们签署了协议，研究江西彭泽的AP1000核电站冷却塔的成套工程，

这个自然通风冷却塔将成为迄今最大的一个，它高210米，底部直径170米。

这是我们在中国的第一个工程。

我们的第二个重大项目是中国广东核电集团（中广核）承担的咸宁核

电项目。我们与他们签署了一份有别于其他合同的合作协议书。我们与中

广核合作拟出一套完整的咸宁核电 1&2 机组冷却塔设计方案。之后我们将

提供并安装这些冷却塔的内部构件。

最近我们与隶属于中国核工业集团的中国核电工程有限公司签署了

合作协议，这份协议为以后和中国核工业集团的在国际舞台上合作，及为

国内外核电项目提供大型冷却塔敞开了大门。哈蒙几年前在上海的中国嘉

兴建立了一个专门生产湿式冷却塔内部构件的工厂，可以说，哈蒙的生产

基地可以很好的适应中国市场对冷却设备的需求。

哈蒙在中国也发展空冷蒸汽冷凝器和间接冷却业务，2010 年底，我

们在天津成立了一个工厂生产这种设备的内部构件，这是哈蒙在中国发展

的重要一步因为缺水地区对这种设备将有巨大需求。湿式冷却塔需要消耗

水，所以当水量不足时，你一点也不想浪费。空冷蒸汽发生器或者间接冷

却技术能够使水冷却的过程中不浪费水。这是为什么我们称它为“干式”

的原因。

DPS：哈蒙在中国遇到的主要阻碍或技术挑战是什么？

Jean-Christian Martin 先生 : 哈蒙刚进入中国市场时，我们首

先必须做的是了解这个市场并打响我们的名声。因此我们加入了法中电力协

会，这个协会旨在推动法国的中小企业不断参与到中国的核电项目中来，它

的所有成员都是法国电力集团的合格供应商。这个渠道使我们受益颇多。

自然通风冷却塔—法国 Cruas 核电站

　　我们的策略就是要努力发掘出一个独特的技术优势来服务中国市场。我

们开发了一种冷却塔集水装置，这种系统非常节能，能够降低冷却塔内水循

环的集水成本。在传统的自然通风冷却塔里，从塔底抽水到指定水位，所以

冷却塔越大，抽水成本就越大。而使用集水装置的这个系统可以在较高的位

置收集冷水，因为抽水的距离短，抽水扬程就大幅度减少了，因此，抽水成

本和所耗能量也大幅减少了。这种技术在法国应用已经有 25 年了，是节能

的好办法。这是我们进入中国核应用市场时向中国推广的技术，它不仅适用

于核电站，也适用于需要用到较大冷却塔的常规电站。哈蒙是唯一一个提供

这种技术的冷却塔厂商，而且它的安装技术也得到了证明—25 多年前的冷却

塔至今仍在运行。

DPS：福岛核事故后哈蒙在中国有什么样的应对策略？

Jean-Christian Martin 先生 : 我们在中国的两个核电项目的

设计仍在持续，设计合同没有解除，但是延误了，不知道什么时候核电站还

会再建。不过我们坚信项目还会重启，因为中国能源供应需求大，中国一定

会在内地建造更多的核电站。当然核电安全也是会不断改善的。哈蒙非常愿

意与中国客户或设计院合作共同探讨冷却塔对环境的影响，因为在公众的意

识里，冷却塔被视为释放“废烟”的污染源，但事实上冷却塔排放出来的只

不过是水蒸气，没有任何污染。它非但不会给环境构成威胁，反而实际上有

益于环境。如果排放太多热水到河流湖泊里，水温的变化会危害里面的生物。

DPS：针对中国的核电市场，哈蒙将来的计划是什么？哈蒙会给中国核电市场提供什么样的产品。

Jean-Christian Martin 先生 : 我们希望中国内陆的核电项目

尽快重启。我们相信哈蒙在内陆核电站有潜在的市场。我们也希望与中国不

同设计院的合作能继续下去。我们对这种策略保持信心。

　　除了内地的项目，哈蒙在设计和建造使用海水的沿海核电站有长期的丰

富经验。我们注意到中国越来越关注工业对环境造成的影响。冷却系统也会

使海水升温，如同威胁河流湖泊生物那样严重威胁海洋生物，所以如果中国

核发展当局决定在海边建一座冷水塔，我相信哈蒙会起到关键作用，因为我

们有在近海海域建造蒸发冷却塔的经验。关于新型的核电产品，那就是我们

在欧洲设计建造的备用冷却塔，称之为“终极散热冷却塔”，建于 20 年前

法国核电项目非常活跃的时期。建这个冷却塔是为了防止反应堆失水事故的

出现。直接从河里抽水，然后经过转换系统达到冷却反应堆的目的。但是，

有时候河水不足或者水泵被水里的杂物堵塞等情况发生时，反应堆得不到

有效冷却。因此，哈蒙设计建造了一些特殊的冷却系统来应对紧急情况。

我们已经为法国的西佛克斯核电站设计了这种冷却塔。这种塔能够抵抗住

任何外部环境的影响，包括龙卷风、强风和地震这样的自燃灾害。设计这

种塔就是为了保证无论反应堆的环境发生了什么样的变化，冷却塔依然会

运行，反应堆也会被冷却。

58专访

59 专访

DPS: 您加入 Courtoy 有多久了？可否介绍一下您的个人背景？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：1991年，我加入了Courtoy公司，

担任梅洛克斯项目的项目工程师。Courtoy 刚刚卖给梅洛克斯工厂一个预压式

压片机，他们需要一位项目工程师设计一台专门处理 MOX 的压片机。在加入

Courtoy 公司之前，我在马里共和国北部（西非国家）工作了三年，负责当地

一个石膏厂，该厂与法国拉法基集团是竞争关系。

DPS: 在承接梅洛克斯项目之前，Courtoy 制造核燃料压片机有多久的历史？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：1969 年我们的第一台核燃料旋转

式压片机出售给了美国的西屋电气公司。位于加拿大霍普港的 Zyrcatec 公司

（已更名为 Cameco 公司）现在还在使用该设备。据说，Cameco 公司用 1 美

元从西屋电气公司那里购买了该设备，负责这次购买项目的总裁办公桌上仍

然摆放着这 1 美元。Cameco 公司将该设备用作预压式压片机。五年前我曾去

过 Zyrcatec 公司，看到这个压片机正在有序运作。

　　有一点要特别指出的是，Courtoy生产的设备质量非常好，且运行年限长，

这对于客户来讲意义重大。

DPS: Courtoy 制造压片机的历史有多久了？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：今年是 Courtoy 公司成立的 100

周年。公司成立初期，我们是作为负责小型机械修理的次承包商。我们所接

触的客户中，很多来自医药化学行业，而我们又负责他们的机器维修，慢慢

的我们就进驻了这个行业。我们生产的第一台压片机是机械化单冲压片机，

直到十几年前我们还在生产这种压片机的升级版本。

　　1933 年 Courtoy 开始制造旋转式压片机。我们的服务领域覆盖所有需要

将粉末转化为固体形状的行业。我们生产的压片机系列种类众多，我们有压

制小部件的压片机，例如有的压片机要用几牛顿的压力压制出外径 0.4 毫米

左右，中心孔直径 0.2 毫米的环；我们还有压片机可以用 400KN 的压力压制

出直径为 60 毫米的片。

DPS: Courtoy 是家族式企业还是隶属于一个集团？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生： 1998 年 Courtoy 的最后的家族

成员离开了我们，而该公司也于 1990 年卖给一家英国控股公司 GEI，而由于

经营不善，GEI 又将其产业出售给 GEA（基伊埃）。主要靠资产换置基金勉强

维持的企业被卖给了像 GEA 这样的大型工程公司，这对企业来说意义重大。

基伊埃更注重长远发展，所以它帮助我们研发新型设备，提升我们在全球的

影响力，并帮我们建造了一个新的生产设施。

DPS: Courtoy 是什么时候进驻核电市场的？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：核电行业最初用液压单冲压片机生

产燃料芯块，但是使用这种压片机的缺点在于它的气缸和液压泵含有大量的

机油。如果封孔崩裂，机油就会四溅，很可能污染燃料。因此，有大批量产

品生产要求的核燃料颗粒厂转向探寻其它压片机技术。旋转式压片机是一个

机械化压片机，从机器顶端到底部压力得以均匀分配，并且这个机器的压力

滚轴只需要用少量的机油就能起到润滑作用。美国西屋公司是第一个尝试使

用旋转式压片机生产核燃料产品的公司。原因在于这种压片机不仅解决了漏

油风险，而且将产品产量提升为原来的 3至 5倍。

DPS: 继美国之后，欧洲也开始发展核电，您是如何接触到核电市场的？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：我先是在梅洛克斯的压片机厂担

任项目经理，然后到了 Courtoy 公司担任工程部经理，从此开始涉足 Courtoy

公司的所有核电项目。

基伊埃工程技术 Courtoy 公司工业业务拓展部技术总监

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生专访

60专访

DPS: Courtoy 公司在欧洲核燃料领域中居于什么样的地位？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：据我们所知，Courtoy 占领了世

界上至少 95% 的旋转式压片机市场。欧洲地区以前使用其它工厂生产的压片

机，但是我认为现在也全都被 Courtoy 生产的压片机代替了。

DPS: 那么 Courtoy 公司在欧洲以外的其它国家占据什么样的地位？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：从世界核能协会发布的核燃料芯

块厂清单可以看出，除了伊朗、北朝鲜、巴基斯坦（不允许向这三个国家出

口相关核设备）和印度（有望很快获得出口许可）没有使用我们的压片机，

其它国家都在使用我们的设备。1994 年我们开始向俄罗斯出口 U02 压片机，

直到现在它还在用我们的设备，此外，哈萨克斯坦、中国、阿根廷、巴西、

南韩、美国和加拿大的核燃料厂也在用我们的压片机。

DPS: 贵公司生产的压片机有何独特之处？为什么这么多的国家都会选择贵公司的设备呢？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：原因有几点。可靠性是一个重要

因素，但是更为重要的一点是只有我们生产的旋转式压片机可以提供恒定密

度压力，这是我们产品的一大特点。我们在顶端和底部的压力辊都安装了空

气补偿器，这样就能保障所有的固体压片都有相同的密度。根据装模频率的

不同，芯块的高度会有所不同，而由于压力恒定不变，每个固体压片的密度

都是相同的。

DPS: 贵公司有没有参与第 4 代核电站的核燃料制造？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：是的，我们有参与。如法国凤凰

核电站和超凤凰核电站用的就是我们的设备。几年前，我们和法国原子能机

构签署了一项关于第 4 代核电站压片机应用的协议，现在，这个项目正在进

行中，我们专门为该项目设计了一款压片机。

DPS: 第 4 代核电站采用的旋转式压片机与第 2代、第 3 代核电站有什么不同之处吗？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：我认为首先是防护等级有所不同。

据我所知，对于第 4 代核电站用而言，用于芯块转化的粉末危险度更高，所

以不需要操作者就能运行的高防护等级的压片机是至关重要的，并且这种设

备需可以自动更换工具。

DPS: 贵公司的新产品体现了哪些新的研发理念？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：就拿普通的铀压片机来说，技术

更新的地方不是很多。要知道核能领域的保守性较高。2007 年，我负责向国

际推广我们公司的压片机时，我与核能领域的客户沟通过相关问题，请求他

们将使用我们产品的感受反馈给我们，并且希望他们提出改良要求。事实上，

比利时伊基埃 Courtoy 公司

61 专访

为了更好提升我们产品的性能，当时我们确实做出过改良方案，但是几乎所

有的客户都不愿意改变压片机的性能和尺寸。这就意味着近几年我们的产品

几乎没有太大的改变。不过，最近我们正在探讨密度在线检测方案，并开展

了实验。我们从压片机生产的芯块高度、直径入手进行监测，并抽取 20 个芯

块对其重量进行检测。从芯块的高度和直径可以计算出密度，然后这个信息

将会反馈给压片机，压片机的控制系统将会调整压力或者固体压片的重量，

以保证每个芯块的密度和高度都符合标准。

DPS: 您的客户有没有对于生产核燃料芯块的压片机提出反馈意见？贵公司将从哪些方面改进这种设备？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：核能行业非常关注如何实现压片

净成形。这一点我可以解释一下 : 当我们压缩铀或者是任意粉末时，粉末会

产生内部摩擦，这就造成了芯块密度从外围向中间依次降低。因此，即使外

部压力恒定不变，芯块中部的密度也会因为粉末内部的摩擦而变小。经过烧

结以后，由于芯块中部的密度较低，整体形状会像计时沙漏。为了保证用于

反应堆的核燃料芯块散热均匀，必须严格控制芯块和包衣之间的公差，因此

我们会使用无心磨床打磨芯块以保证每个芯块形状都是标准的圆柱体。如果

压片机生产的片剂经过烧结后的形状是标准圆柱体，那么打磨工序就可以省

略，同时因为打磨而产生的废料也得以避免。现在我们正致力于解决这一

问题，但是要实现这一目标并非易事。

DPS: Courtoy 公司的旋转式压片机运行年限长，这就意味着新的订单需求少，那么您是如何维持业绩的？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：我现在遇到的最大挑战就是在

各个领域寻求业务合作。由于我们公司的产品出口遍布全球，所以核电方

向的业绩比较稳定。除了销售新的设备，我们还可以为客户升级已有的设备。

我们原来使用湿法制粒，现在多用干法制粒，我们在干法制粒的设备上装

有滞留 / 夹持系统以保证在设备喷发颗粒时颗粒不会产生裂痕。由于干法

制粒制造过程更为流畅，我们还在设备上安装了两个旋转式供料器。不过

压力本身没有发生任何变化。

DPS: 在工厂内部有没有专门负责核能压片机的团队和办公场地？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：所有的核能项目由同一个项目

经理负责。负责装配 R53/R57 压片机的员工也是来自同样的团队。这样我

们就能保证所有设备都能达到 ISO 9001 制定的高标准，该项标准适用于所

有核能设备和非核能设备。

DPS: 基伊埃 Courtoy 公司是什么时候进驻中国市场的？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：1986 年中国四川省宜宾市购买

了我们的一台核燃料压片机设备，现在这台设备仍在运行。

DPS: 让我们多了解一下 Courtoy 在中国的发展状况。贵公司将设备出售给中国四川省宜宾市，随后中国市场慢慢得以拓展，可否谈一下贵公司在中国的发展历程？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：宜宾市确实购买了我们公司的

设备，据我所知上次设备购买是在 2007 年年底。中国市场对我们来说很重

要，中国现在有很多在建的核电站项目，而核燃料需求成为必然。核能在

欧洲没有得到拓展，因此，我们需要转向其它国家寻求市场。我们了解到

中国现在正在研发新型反应堆，我们期望能够参与到这类项目。这样，我

们就可以帮助这些新型特定的反应堆优化核燃料芯块制造过程。

DPS: Courtoy 公司在上海建立了工厂，针对中国市场而言，该厂的目标是什么 ?

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：不仅仅是核能市场，中国其它

行业的市场均发展迅速，这就意味着劳动密集型产品可以在中国制造销往

世界各地，如中型散装容器（IBC）。中国市场有需求，就有产品随之而来，

现在我们将上海这家工厂的销售方向定位于整个亚洲市场。核燃料芯块压片机

的。在核能产业，所有的产品都是按订单生产的，所以一个公司不仅需要有

生产制造能力，还要具备制造一个设备并且进行测试的能力。

在制药领域，所有的机器都是按照订单组装的，因为与其它行业相比，

制药行业的设备种类很少。举例来说，95% 的用于制药的粉末容器都是相

似的，所以片剂制造的流程区别不大。片剂的尺寸要小一点以便于吞咽，

所以总的来说这种设备的制造流程是非常标准化的。

　　而非制药设备的制造流程就复杂多了。举个例子来说，圆珠笔的钨珠需

要几公斤的压力。但是制造洗涤产品的压力就又不同了，大概为 20 吨。还有

一些项目所需的压力更高。我们有一个澳大利亚的项目所需的压力为 35 吨。

所以非制药设备制造产品的直径有小有大，所需压力千差万别，产品流程特

性也是不同的。

DPS: 有没有计划让上海公司更多的涉足核能市场，如做核能维修或技术支持？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：我们在上海有一个这样的团队。

Jurgen Boecks, 曾经在 Courtoy 担任过研发经理，现在负责我们公司的业务

部门。他除了带领销售和维修小组，还带领一支专门负责 Courtoy S 模块压

片机组装的团队。他手下的维修小组可以对核能领域的设备起到技术支持的

作用。同时我们还有一大批经验丰富的比利时专家，现在在 Courtoy 驻泰国

办事处办公，他们可以更好的为亚洲客户提供技术支持，或负责大规模的设

备维护工作。

DPS: 现在贵公司开始在中国采购原料了吗？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：我记得刚开始所需的不锈钢原料

是从欧洲运过来的，但是我认为现在这种原料可以在中国本地购买。

DPS: 也就是说您可以在中国找到相同的原料？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：据我所知，中国的钢材质量及其

它原料质量大有提升，这些原料可以用于本土化生产。然而，我不知道这些

钢材是否完全是本土化制造亦或是有部分原料来自进口。

DPS: 位于上海的基伊埃工程技术（中国）有限公司（GPCN 公司）现有多少员工？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：员工数量在快速上升。十年前，

只有几百人，现在已达到 787 人，而且每月都有新员工进驻。现在我们计划

再找一处场地，这是 GPCN 公司十年内的第三次搬家，除了产品产量的增加，

项目工程和客户服务也是 GEA 追求的。

DPS: 基伊埃上海公司有没有进驻核能市场呢？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：现在来说还没有。但是我们确实

有为亚洲市场制造 Courtoy S 模块制药压片机。这些压片机也是小批量生产

上海伊基埃公司

63 专访

DPS: 贵公司是否为 AP1000 生产过芯块？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：目前所有 AP1000 使用的芯块均

是 Courtoy 压片机制造的。互联网上有关于 AP1000 使用芯块的研究报道。

而美国西屋电气公司希望能够增加反应堆的输出量。其中一则研究报告表示，

西屋公司希望在芯块中间添加一个孔，这样不仅在芯块外层有一个包衣，在

孔洞中间也有一层包衣，就可以达到两边同时冷却。这样可以让反应堆的输

出量可以增加30%。所以现在有些反应堆使用的核燃料芯块中间都有一个孔，

以保证芯块中间是冷却的。不过我们将会采用多种可行性方案来增大芯块的

中心孔径。

DPS: 贵公司是否有参与其它反应堆项目，如EPR 或是第三代核电站？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：基伊埃工程设备 Courtoy 压片机

公司参与了其它反应堆项目，但是由于我们与这些公司签订了保密协议，不

方便透漏这些公司的名称。我们是一家工程设备公司，与该领域中在全球占

有领先地位的企业有密切的合作关系，如美国西屋电器公司、阿珐海、法国

原子能机构、韩国核燃料公社及中国核工业集团等。我们帮助这些企业优化

他们的产品。此外，我们与俄罗斯的企业也有合作。

DPS: 可以说贵公司的技术改良离不开客户的反馈信息，对吧。

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：我觉得这是我们改良技术的关键

所在。我们定期拜访客户，倾听他们的意见和建议，并给出合理的解决方案。

这一点对与我们来说非常重要。

DPS: 法国阿珐海、俄罗斯国有原子能公司、韩国水力原子力公司在全球推广他们的技术。这些企业有没有邀请贵公司成为他们的主要合作伙伴来共同参与国际项目呢？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：在阿珐海的帮助下，我们出售给

韩国核燃料公社两台压片机。阿珐海在印度也有项目。然而，尽管我们有来

自印度的订单，却无法向这个国家出口我们的设备。现在比利时和印度政府

正在就签订双边核能协议进行协商，该协议一旦签订，我们就有资格向印度

出口设备了。当然阿珐海还有来自其它国家的订单，他们也经常向合作公司

推荐我们的压片机设备。

DPS: 中国现在准备向其它国家 ( 如阿根廷 ) 的核能市场进军 , 贵公司有没有计划与中国核工业集团或其它中国企业建立战略合作伙伴关系，来共同拓展国际核能市场？

Tonie Van Zegbroeck 先生：阿根廷和巴西已经购买了我们的

核燃料芯块压片机。我们已经向客户证明我们有设计和制造核燃料芯块设备

的能，并且已经积累了丰富的经验。与此同时，我们希望能够与中国企业建

立合作共同拓展其它核能市场。当然，我们非常期望参与中国核工业集团的

项目。

64专访

DPS: 您可以介绍一下您的背景吗？您已经在Eupen 工作多久了？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：在获得电工学学位之后，我于 1979 年

加入了 KABELWERK Eupen，那时我是安装和配件部门（电缆终端和接头）

的技术经理。

我作为市场部生产经理已有 10 年了，在此期间，我时刻关注世界市

场动态，争取使 Eupen 的产品系列与世界市场接轨。

高级工程师的身份使我对外可以保持与客户的广泛联系，对内可以

和不同的部门加强沟通，例如研发部，生产部，测试实验室和质量控制部

门等。我现在的主要活动集中在核电领域的电缆产品上。

DPS: Eupen 只专注于核电领域电缆的业务拓展吗？是否还提供其他领域的电缆？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：KABELWERK EUPEN 素以电力电缆全套

供应商闻名。从简单的电线到中低压电缆和仪控电缆，再到通信电缆，

对称铜芯电缆，同轴电缆或者光纤技术，凡是可能应用于工业领域的电缆

都属于我们的产品范围。Eupen 数十年的产品生产经验使得我们的部分产

品在二十世纪八十年代就达到了核电要求标准，包括隔离区用拥有 DBE 资

质的电缆（即所谓的 K1 电缆），辐射密集区用电缆（所谓的 K2 电缆）和

外围区用电缆（所谓的 K3 电缆）。如今，这些电缆预期 60 年的使用寿命

已经不足为奇。

DPS: Eupen 创立于 1747 年，那时使用的是什么电缆？你们是如何扩展到现在的核用电缆领域的？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：1747 年，当地的 Bourse aux 家族开

始生产麻绳，但是主要用于航海领域。

　　20 世纪初同样是 Bourse aux 家族，不过这时它已经在绞合技术方面

积累了丰富的经验，并且开始生产简单的电缆。

　　此外，它的产品还适应不断发展的电力技术，以及后来的通信技术。

20 世纪 80 年代初这些产品已经符合了比利时第一批核电站 - Doel 和

Tihange 核电站的严格的标准要求。

DPS: Eupen 只在比利时设立了公司吗？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：整个管理，行政和生产流程都是

在同样的地方，也就是在比利时的德语区 Eupen 市。我们的公司名字

KABELWERK EUPEN 也源于这个地理名字，大部分的客户都称我们公司

“EUPEN”。

　　其他的销售处和物流中心遍布全球。几乎所有外面的附属公司名字中

都会提到“EUPEN”。

DPS: 贵公司的规模有多大？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：目前 Eupen 总部公司有员工 930 名。

对于 Eupen 这样一个私有公司来说，这个数字还是相当大的。公司占地面

积 33.5 万多平方米，其中建筑和生产线占地面积约 14.5 万平方米。

DPS: 贵公司工厂设计和生产多少种类型的电缆？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：由于产品范围广泛，我们很难说在

Eupen 一百多年的历史中到底有多少种类型的电缆，只能说目前我们的系

统中拥有约 32,882 种不同的电缆。

DPS: 有些公司生产核用电缆，尤其是 K1 电缆。Eupen 是否也参与电缆的设计呢？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：正如其他类型的电缆一样，我们也在

Eupen 市的设备处研发，生产和测试核用电缆。绝缘和护套材料也是在我

们内部实验室研发的，同样地，电缆构造也是由我们自己的设计部设计的。

从拔丝到外部护套，所有的生产都是内部运作的。而且，所有的测试都是

严格按照 ISO 9000 的规定执行的。

　　基本上，我们遵循所有相关的电缆标准，如 IEC 或 EN，还有核电标

准 IEEE383/323 或 RCC-E，和基于 IEC 或 EN 的消防标准。

　　我们通常也会考虑客户的具体需求。

　　由于特殊的“K1”电缆系列涉及核电站的安全性能，我们在生产时就

格外注意和专心。

KABELWERK EUPEN AG 公司核电产品生产部经理（高级工程师）

Edgar Heinrichs 专访

65 专访

DPS: 贵公司的用户大多集中在欧洲还是其他地方？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：只要我们符合相关标准，我们的产品

就有可能出现在世界上任何一个地方。我们的产品完全是按照国际通用标

准，还有 IEC 和 EN 标准以及大部分欧洲国家共同标准而生产的。

　　就中国市场而言，在 2003 年我们为田湾 1&2 号项目向上海核工院和

江苏核电公司供货。

DPS: Eupen 的核用电缆是无卤电缆，你们和美国的电缆主要不同之处是什么？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：多年来，公共建筑用无卤安全电缆一

直是 EUPEN 的一个重要市场。我们也以此获利颇多，所以也决定把这种电

缆应用到核用电缆产品中。

　　众所周知，核电市场有无卤解决方案（主要用于欧洲国家）和非无卤

方案（践行于美国和俄罗斯地区）。

　　EUPEN 专门向核电市场提供无卤电缆产品，致力于为核电站的基本安

全作出贡献。

DPS: 您可以谈谈和西屋的合作吗？你们是否参与了 AP1000 项目？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：在 Ringhals 项目框架下，西屋瑞典

公司是一个很好的忠实客户。我们面临着新型 AP1000 规格要求的挑战，

但我们有能力使我们的电缆满足这种新反应堆的条件要求。

　　另外，每个反应堆建设都会对项目相关的国家规格要求有预见性。

DPS: 自从日本福岛事故后，核电相关部件的设计和制造都对安全性有了诸多要求。EUPEN 是否受到了新安全要求的影响？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：EUPEN 并未受到直接影响，核用电缆

的测试和安全标准向来很高且严苛，因为它关乎核电环境下电缆的使用寿

命，火灾事故中电缆的状况和核事故中电缆的性能。

DPS: 针对火灾，洪水和失水事故等，是否有特别的新的规范要求呢？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：一般来说，IEEE 383/323 标准和法国

的 RCC-E 标准负责防范以上工况。此外，有的规范还要符合不同反应堆型

的特定要求。这些要求包括辐射剂量，温度和压力分布图以及其它的性能

要求。

　　EUPEN 一直希望按照世界现有项目和反应堆的参数测试自己的产品。

DPS: 一座核电站大概需要多少电缆？需要何种电缆？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：很难准确说一座电站需求多少电缆，

我们生产大量不同类型的电缆，它们的应用不尽相同，并广泛用于不同电

厂的设备处。

　　整套电缆并不是来自一家供应商，但是核电站的建筑趋于精小化，所

以实际电缆也需要缩小。每台机组约需要 120-150km K1 电缆。

DPS: 请您谈谈 K2 和 K3 电缆的不同之处？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：这很简单：根据他们使用地方的不同，

K2 电缆必须要有辐射抗性，而 K3 电缆原则上要安装在无辐射的环境中。

但是这两种类型的电缆都需要严格的生产监管和后续跟踪。

DPS: 中国有些公司能够生产 K1 电缆，但是工程总承包商宁愿从包括 Eupen 在内的外商那里进口 K1 电缆。您对此有什么看法？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：长期的经验和优秀的业绩是关键因素。

长远看来，中国核电项目的“国产化内容”也将是一个政策决策。到那时，

Kabelwerk Eupen 实验室 -- 电缆成束燃烧测试

Kabelwerk Eupen 实验室 LOCA 测试设备

66专访

完全实现国产化的中国电缆厂商才会有好的机遇。

DPS: EUPEN 是为数不多拥有 HAF604 认证的的外国公司之一。你们是从什么时候开始在中国开展业务的？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：2010 年我们获得了 HAF604 认证，证书

编号是 N0-1008，该证书的有效期到 2015 年。没有该证书，任何核电相关

产品出口到中国都是不可能的。

DPS: K3 电缆的竞争是在国内，K1 的竞争是国际上的竞争，你们是怎样发挥自身的竞争优势的？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：我们尊重中国的“K3”市场，因此我

们把主要精力放在“K1”电缆上，只要投标方允许 K1 和 K2/K3 分开投标。

我们充分利用我们在“K1”产品方面长期的经验，但是我们也知道中国的

“K1”电缆市场是许多国际竞争对手角逐的目标。

　　另一个重要因素是永远以一种走近中国客户的姿态获得并保持他们的

信心。

DPS: 中国将建造更多的 AP1000 项目和其他的三代核电站。这个策略是否影响了 EUPEN 的技术要求？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：我们需要更多地了解三代核电的规范

要求，然后才知道我们以前提供的解决方案是否仍然适用。

　　关于安全，鉴于日本福岛核电事故，我们想安全要求会更高。

DPS: 关于市场竞争，EUPEN 在中国面临的主要挑战是什么？

Edgar Heinrichs 先生：正如我在采访开始时说的，EUPEN 是一

个家族企业。我们公司的结构使我们只能把有限的员工和资金投入到像中

国这样的巨大且富有挑战的市场上。

　　语言和表达方式的差异可能是一个障碍。尽管可以通过英语达成简单

共识，误解和翻译的不同也是不可避免的，技术性高的翻译服务器又很少。

在严峻的电站退役环境下采用低成本红外摄像机


71 科技文章

　引言

红外摄像技术的成本持续下降，而图像分辨率和处理能力却不断

提高，从而使这项技术经济实用并被广泛用于核反应堆退役项目。本

文描述了相对廉价的红外摄像仪在严峻的核电站退役环境中的应用，

特别讲述了红外摄像仪在远程监控实验性增殖反应堆 II（EBRII）反应

堆容器内钠处理方面的应用。

　实际工作的描述

　系统描述2011 年春，工程技术图像服务公司 -- Communication Designs

按照与 CH2M-WG Idaho 有限责任公司（简称 CWI 公司）签订的合同

研发了一套红外摄像系统，该系统可在 EBRII 反应堆容器内操作。通

过修改相对便宜的 FLIR M-Series (M-626L) 长波热感摄像机，并增加

惰性气体增压系统，红外摄像系统很快就被研发出来，而且成本不足

$30,000。

　操作环境在设备部件进行钠残留液体处理时，EBR II 反应堆容器内的红外

摄像系统必须在严峻的环境中安全可靠的运行。反应堆内严峻的环境

包括：

辐射水平高达 300 Rad 湿度超过 95% RH 钠反应造成的高腐蚀性氢氧化钠喷洒

处理液强酸喷洒

钠反应产生的易爆炸氢气

熔融钠金属溅洒

　系统修改对红外摄像仪的修改包括密封摄像机外壳，在外壳上钻通气孔以

便保持氮气冲洗。调整可视红外摄像机的焦距，以便使反应堆容器内

物体可视度最优化。34 英尺的吊杆和定制的摄像头接口可以准确的垂

直定位，并可以输送净化气体到摄像机外壳。由于潜在的氢气环境，

如果摄像机外壳发现损坏，由 Pepperl+Fuchs 生产的抽气器会自动切

断摄像系统的电源。图一是修改后的 FLIR IR 摄像机。

　

结果

2011 年 10 月 2 日，改进后的红外摄像系统被放入 EBR II 反应堆

容器内，它运行 22 天，为主穹顶外的远程站退役小组人员提供红外可

视图像。红外系统为电站退役工作小组提供了宝贵的实时信息，从而可

以清楚地确认严峻环境下钠处理过程。图二显示了主容器内熔融金属钠

从中间热交换器流出的红外图像。即使摄像头被钠处理过程中产生的浓

雾遮住，红外摄像机也能够持续拍摄反应堆内主要组件的图像。

　经验教训汲取的经验教训包括发现了红外摄像机内的氧化钒焦平面阵列不

会造成可视度降低，因为辐射场使它适合在辐射环境中应用。CMOS

图像传感器的功能因受到辐射场的影响会随着时间减弱。辐射对使用非

晶硅焦平面阵列（另一种重要的红外焦平面阵列）和使用氧化钒焦平面

阵列的红外摄像的影响以及影响程度的比较有待进一步研究。

另一个重大发现是了解到辐射测量的红外摄像机上的温度读数总要比红外摄像可视其表面的接触式热电偶上的读数精确。一旦目标表面的辐

射系数确定，红外摄像基本可以得出一个相较于热电偶更加精确的温度读数。

介绍

ENRESA 是西班牙国家电力公司，它主要负责核设施拆除和电站运营许可证转移。

José Cabrera 核电站由西班牙天然气公司所有，它的建设始于 1964 年，1969 年正式投入商业运行。核电蒸汽供应系统是由西屋电气设计和

提供，它是由一个小型压水反应堆组成。该反应堆的授权热功率为 510MW，电功率为 160MW，还包括所有保证电站在安全环境下有效运行的辅助和

安全系统。

2006 年 4 月 30 日，José Cabrera 核电站被彻底关闭。2 年后，即 2008 年 4 月 30 日，ENRESA 要求能源部转移该核电站的经营许可证，并要

求获得执行电站拆除和退役计划的相关授权。

2010 年 2月 1日，ENRESA 获得授权拆除 José Cabrera 核电站。当时乏燃料已经从燃料池中清除并储藏在现场的一个干式贮藏设施的容器里。

废物和材料管理的系统及辅助设施已经作了修改，准备工作基本完成。该项目的主要挑战就是拆除主要部件（容器，

内容

José Cabrera 核电站的除役拆厂作业是一个动态过程，它包括一系列活动，如拆卸，净化去污，解密，场地的拆除和现场恢复。

该项目的主要活动可以划分为七个关键部分，其中 2个部分贯穿整个过程（放射学特征和放射性废物管理）。

这些活动的实施要遵循不同部分的拆除方案的框架内规定，方案涵盖主要标准、方法论和必要预先分析。这些方案包括可用的技术方案和不

同的选择方案、鉴别工作干扰因素和主要活动规划。

自电站运行许可证从西班牙天然气公司转移到国家电力公司那天开始，拆除工作预计需要花费 6 年的时间，拆除预算为 1.35 亿欧元，不包

括乏燃料管理费用。

结论

• José Cabrera 核电站的除役拆厂工作给 ENRESA 带来了新的挑战，例如：

• 大部件的移除和管理以及中级废料的管理是不能在 El Cabril 废料处置场进行的。

• 使用新的集装箱使反射活度高的废物的装载容量最优化。

• 大幅度降低运行阶段安全系统和技术规格的数量。

• 明确监督方案控制下对辐射防护至关重要的系统。

ENRESA 将利用从其他最新项目 (Vandellós I 核电站与 PIMIC) 和国际上其他项目中汲取而来的经验来应对这些新的挑战。

中通协会长隋永滨：核电装备制造业产能已过剩

近日，总投资达 70 亿元的核电设备项目已在四川成都的天府新区开

工。而从今年 6 月起，在江苏南京的江宁滨江开发区，一个规划面积达 2

平方公里的中国南京滨江核电装备科技产业园即将崛起。

无论是东北的老工业基地，还是中西部的新兴工业区，核电装备制造

业的吸引力有增无减。而这些地区所考虑的关键就在于，国家正大力支持

核电装备的国产化，而且核电在未来的中国乃至世界都具备良好的发展前

景和潜在的庞大市场。

但是，中国机械工业联合会总工程师隋永滨却在日前举办的第八届中

国核能国际大会上表示，国内核电装备制造业已经显露出产能过剩，将来

有可能能量放空。

据隋永滨介绍，从现在核岛几大设备来看，包括锻件、反应堆压力容器、

蒸汽发生器、堆内构件、控制棒驱动机构这些主要设备，包括环形吊车等，

现在的年产能力大致在 12 套左右，按照目前国内装备制造的情况，以后每

年制造 12 套百万千万核电机组所需设备应该没有问题。

但他也指出了目前还比较弱的环节，即堆内构件和控制棒驱动机构的

生产能力大致在 6 套左右，与其他设备相比还存在差距。此外，核岛主泵

目前仍是国内外企业合资在做，还处于引进技术和消化吸收的阶段。

　　“涉及核岛的另外一个国产化难点就是核仪控系统和关键的核

级仪表，目前基本上都是从国外进口。核二级泵、核三级泵全部

实现了国产化；核一级阀门少量仍需进口，如稳压器安全阀和主

蒸汽隔离阀。但是，总体来说，我国的核级泵和核级阀门约 80％

可以实现国内采购。”隋永滨指出。

　　据了解，从长远来看，常规岛的工业汽轮机和发电机完全可

以实现国产化，一年的生产能力应该在 12-15 套左右。

　　另外，BOP 系统（除核岛和常规岛之外的其他辅助系统）中正

在趋近国产化的就是应急柴油发电机组。

　　信息显示，目前，从东北的黑龙江、吉林、辽宁，到沿海的

山东、江苏、上海、浙江、广东，再到中西部的湖北、江西、四川，

很多省市都把发展核电装备纳入当地“十二五”期间振兴装备制

造业的重点规划。

　　在隋永滨看来，福岛核事故虽然给国内核电装备制造业带来

不小的影响，但也带来了很多需要反省和思考的问题。

　　记者整理其发言，发现问题可以大致概括为发展速度与产品

质量的关系、产能过剩必须引起重视、产能过剩可能引来的市场

恶性竞争。

　　“个人认为中国的核电发展前一阶段有点太快，任务太集中，

这种前提下，国产设备的质量很难保证。福岛事故后，中国放慢

了核电发展速度，对装备制造业来说，是件好事，我们对自己的

核电的质保体系、对产品有进一步的反思和反省。”隋永滨说。

申海科技成为核电保护神

连日来，我市奖牌企业申海工业技术科技有限公司一片繁忙的生产

景象。由于上海电气、哈尔滨电气、苏州阀门、沈阳鼓风等数家国内核电

三代 AP1000 产品专业制造公司的订单纷至沓来，申海的核电产品镀铬车

间更是生产满负荷。

三代核电技术 (AP1000) 是目前国际上最先进、最安全的核电技术，

较二代 (AP600) 技术、设计理念更先进、安全性更好、预防发生事故措施

更先进，建造要求更高。申海公司承担了国内核三代 AP1000 产品的加工

重任，为反应堆的控制棒驱动机构、堆内构件、爆破阀等产品提供表面技

术处理。

堆内构件紧固件表面处理技术开发是大型先进压水堆核电站国家重

大科技专项的关键技术研发任务之一，它包括了产品的电镀硬铬与磷化。

核三代堆内机件表面处理镀铬是一项关键的核心技术，也是当今国际表面

处理的顶尖前沿技术，它是保障核电站安全运作必不可少的关键技术措施，

可以称得上是核电产品的“保护神”。过去，国内表面硬铬处理技术无论

从硬度、厚度、均匀性等方面远远达不到三代核电技术的要求，国产化难

度极大，许多国内的电镀企业解决不了这一难题。核电国产化是对一个国

家工业水平和能力的整体考验。核安全已经成为世界各国特别关注的大事，

承担制造核电设备及部件的工厂，对其设施、技术、经济、管理水平以及

员工素质都有相当高的要求。申海公司具有近四十年的电镀经验，是目前

国内生产规模最大，加工镀种最全、科技含量最高的的材料表面处理企业

之一，公司通过投入与研发，建成适应核电产品的专用车间和连续电镀生

产线，短时间内取得了专业性的重大突破。严格按国际 AP1000 标准，通

过特殊的电镀、磷化工艺，核电产品铬镀层达到：均匀走位好、无微孔点、

镀层薄 ; 镀铬层的硬度与耐磨度、耐弯折度得到了充分的保证 ; 具备高强

度的耐腐蚀性 ; 能承受超高、低温度。产品通过了国家核权威机构中核、

中广核考核认可，表面硬铬技术处理的水准达到了核三代 AP1000 标准，

代表了当今国际核电技术最先进的水平，完全符合我国目前建设核三代电

站的标准要求，改变了我国传统的表面处理工艺技术的现状，填补了国内

核电行业电镀硬铬产品的空白，结束了中国核电驱动机堆内构件靠国外进

口的历史。

现在，申海公司电镀和磷化的核三代反应堆内 AP1000 产品已应用到

当今国际最先进的浙江三门和山东海阳核电站的建设，这两个核电站是目

前世界上首次投入商业运行的 AP1000 核电项目。

中国核电重启进入实质性推进阶段

中国核电重启进入实质性推进阶段。11 月 17 日，福建福清核电项目

4 号机组、广东阳江核电项目 4 号机组同时复工建设。这是中国在日本福

岛核电事故之后，首次获批开工建设新的核电机组。这两台机组是于日本

福岛核事故之前就已获批，原定于去年下半年开工，但后受事故影响而被

叫停。

知情人士称，国家核安全局在 16 日同意释放福清和阳江两个项目

的工程控制点，17 日两个项目在同一天复工。10 月底，国务院常务会议

讨论并通过《核电安全规划 (2011-2020 年 )》和《核电中长期发展规划

(2011-2020 年 )》，原来已批复的几个项目则要优先启动，以后会陆续启

动核电项目的建设。

国家能源局人士对本报记者表示，福清核电项目 4 号机组和阳江核

电站 4 号机组此前都处在施工过程当中，属于在建项目，因此应属于恢复

施工。

资料显示，福清核电项目规划建设 6台百万千瓦级压水堆核电机组。

一次规划、分期建设，一期工程建设两台机组。3、4 号机组为福清核电项

目的二期工程，3 号机组于 2010 年 12 月 31 日开工。由于福清核电项目采

用的是双堆机型，两个机组开工时间应相隔 8-10 个月。福清核电项目相

关人士对记者称，4号机组的原定开工时间为去年 7月。

阳江核电项目采用的也同样是双堆机型，2008 年 12 月 16 日开工 1

号机组，计划明年 8月投产。其 3号机组于 2010 年 11 月 15 日开工建设。

在两个项目开工 3 号机组之时，国家核安全局都是一次性颁发 3、4

号机组的建造许可证，但同时规定”将 4 号机组核岛基础浇注第一罐混凝

土设为控制点，必须经过我局检查批准后，四号机组方可浇注核岛基础第

一罐混凝土”。

田湾二期是关键节点与福清、阳江 4 号机组一同被认定为下一步要

启动的核电项目，还有山东石岛湾高温气冷堆核电示范工程和江苏田湾核

电项目二期工程。

高温气冷堆示范工程由华能集团公司、中核建集团和清华大学以

50%、35% 和 15% 的投资比例共同投资、建设、运营，采用具有四代特征的

核电技术。

由于此前已经走完了审批流程，石岛湾核电项目与福清、阳江 4 号

机组一样亦不需要再走新的审批程序。

与上述三个核电项目不同，田湾核电项目二期工程则完全是一个

新的核电项目，两台机组都没有开工。该项目由中核集团建设，

采用俄罗斯 VVER1000 压水堆技术，计划于 2012 年 12 月开工建设

二期工程的首台机组。

多位核电业内人士曾对本报记者表示，田湾核电二期工程最有可能

成为我国重启核电新项目审批的首个核电工程。不过，中国对核电建设的

态度日趋谨慎。国家能源局副局长刘琦日前在接受本报记者采访时表示，

发展核电还应坚持安全第一、稳步发展，不能搞大跃进。这类重大项目以

后会搞社会评估。如果社会评估过不去，即便资源好、有条件建设，也很

难启动。“不能为了发展，而不顾民众的意愿。”刘琦说。


两核电项目通过环评审批

昨日环保部网站公示，拟对秦山核电厂厂区防洪防水淹项目环境影

响报告表作出批复决定。公示期为 2012 年 11 月 26 日－ 2012 年 11 月 30

日（5天）。

秦山核电厂厂区防洪防水淹项目位于秦山核电一期北侧海堤和秦山

核电一期的西北侧的老沪杭公路，承建单位为秦山核电厂有限公司。该项

目属于技改项目，工程不新增占地。项目建设内容主要包括：秦山核电一

期海堤加高；老沪杭公路挡水工程等。报告指出，该项目建成后无污染，

施工期间采取相应的环保措施，对环境影响是可接受的。

而在上周，环保部网站亦公示了其对田湾核电厂 3、4 机组工程项目

环境影响报告书（选址阶段）的批复决定。田湾核电厂 3、4号机组工程项

目是田湾核电厂扩建项目，项目总投资 433.95 亿元，其中环保投资 14.01

亿元。业内人士认为，近日连续有核电项目通过环评审批，环保部“忙碌”

的工作节奏，足以证明核电重启已经转入实质阶段。

中国首发世界最长汽轮机末级叶片

近日，阿尔斯通在上海推出了长 75 英寸，排汽面积达 58 平方米的

L75 型超长核电汽轮机末级叶片，该产品是目前世界上最长、排汽面积最

大的末级叶片。末级叶片是核电站中的汽轮机低压模块的重要组成部分，

将蒸汽中的热能转化为电能。

L75 型末级叶片用于阿尔斯通阿拉贝拉核电汽轮机的低压缸，是阿尔

斯通在其现有的 69 英寸叶片产品基础上研发而成。升级版的 LP75 叶片在

相同工况和核反应堆的前提下，其单机出力可以增加一万千瓦，预计能带

来 400 万欧元 /年的额外收入，相当于 6万户中国家庭一年的用电量。

最新 LP75 末级叶片的首发，将进一步加强阿尔斯通在核电常规岛领

域领先的地位，其阿拉贝拉汽轮机叶片系列产品尺寸也增加到 LP57、LP69

和 LP75 三种，这为电厂设计提供了更大的灵活性。LP75 叶片采用与早期

型号相同的焊接转子技术和轻型设计，并采用类似制造工艺，许多零部件

都能通用。

据了解，阿尔斯通从事核电业务已经有 55 年的历史。迄今为止 , 在

全世界的核电站常规岛里，采用阿尔斯通技术的机组占了 30% 的份额。也

就是说，目前全球运行的 475 台常规岛发电机组中，采用阿尔斯通技术作

为常规岛发电机组的有 136 台。除汽轮发电机组之外，阿尔斯通还涉足核

电领域的其他多种产品，如热交换器、EDG 以及非主机核电产品（各种泵

类产品）等。

核制度和审核节奏来看，中国核电仍需较长时间才能进入发行阶段。

今年 10 月 24 日，国务院常务会议讨论并通过《核电安全规划》和

《核电中长期发展规划》，对当前和今后一个时期的核电建设作出部署。

规划指出要稳妥恢复核电正常建设，并合理把握建设节奏。两个规划的出

台，明确了我国核电后续发展的思路，安全、有序、高效发展核电仍然是

调整我国能源结构的重要选择和我国能源电力的重要发展战略。据业内人

士透露，目前核电在我国电力结构中的比例仍然很小，核电装机比重仅为

1.19%，与国际水平相比具有较大提升空间。

有资深投资人士分析，在电力行业上市公司中，火电类型上市公司

业绩对煤价变动的敏感性较高，水电类上市公司业绩则容易受到上游来水

季节性差异的影响，与之相比，核电类上市公司则较少受到外部因素的影

响，业绩更加稳定。对于投资者而言，是电力行业股票中较好的配置品种。

中国核电前身为中核核电有限公司，成立于 2008 年 1 月 21 日，于

2011 年 12 月 31 日整体变更为中国核能电力股份有限公司，由中国核工业

集团公司、中国长江三峡集团公司、中国远洋运输（集团）总公司和航天

投资控股有限公司共同发起设立，中国核工业集团公司控股。截至 2011

年底，公司拥有控股子公司13家，参股公司1家；控股在役核电机组9台，

装机容量 649.6 万千瓦；控股在建核电机组 10 台，装机容量 1028 万千瓦。

据中国核电公开披露的信息显示，公司目前运营核电站包括：我国第

一座自主设计建造、运营管理，被誉为“国之光荣“的秦山核电站；我国

第一座自主设计建造、运营管理，被誉为”核电国产化重大跨越“的大型

商用核电站—秦山二期核电站；我国第一座实现核电工程管理与国际接轨

“十二五”或有 3 到 5 个铀矿大基地建设计划落地

日前，由中国核学会铀矿地质分会和铀矿冶分会联合主办，核工业

北京地质研究院承办的“全国铀矿大基地建设学术研讨会”召开，与会的

中核集团地矿事业部副主任、总工程师张金带指出，积极推进铀矿大基地

建设对提高我国铀资源保障能力和铀矿山企业的规模化、集约化水平具有

重要意义。

业内人士指出，我国核电产业规模化发展步伐加快，对铀资源保障

程度提出了更高要求，天然铀产业进入了加快发展的重要战略机遇期，如

何提高国内铀资源供应保障能力已成为当前核电发展亟待解决的问题。

张金带在《合理布局科学规划积极推进铀矿大基地建设》一文中曾

建议将铀矿大基地定义为，以铀矿田或铀矿化集中区为基本单元，兼顾周

边成矿远景区和分散的矿床，统筹整装勘查和开发的铀资源集结区。其探

明资源储量应在万吨以上，其中至少有 1-2 个大中型规模的骨干矿床，天

然铀产能目标分 800 吨 / 年以上、500-800 吨 / 年、300-500 吨 / 年三个

级别，服务年限至少 15 年。

根据张金带在上述文章中的介绍，目前我国已探明近350个铀矿床，

大中型矿床的数量虽然只占 27%，但其资源储量约占总资源储量的 77%，

而且数十个铀矿田的资源储量也约占总资源储量的 76%。我国铀矿床有相

当的聚集度，很多矿床之间的距离仅千百米，如江西相山铀矿田探明的

20 多个矿床近 3 万吨资源储量就分布在方圆 10 多千米的范围内，便于整

体开发利用。

知情业内人士透露，目前大基地建设的实施途径首先迈出的一步是，

成立区域性的铀矿大基地建设指挥部，以此加强区域内各项工作的统筹协

调。

信息显示，江西、内蒙古和广东已先后成立铀矿大基地建设指挥部，

西部和北方地区产能建设步伐大大加快，新疆伊犁铀矿大基地资源勘查工

作进展顺利。

山东海阳核电园区规划正式出炉

山东省正在加速打造核电产业园区的“地方样本”。记者近日从多

方获悉，山东海阳核电园区规划正式出炉，110KV 变电站建设年内完成设

备安装，明年 2 月投入运行。这一消息进一步得到一名海阳核电站负责人

的证实。

信息显示，海阳核电工业园区总体规划成果已经提交，确定 3 平方

公里起步区率先建设，一期工程计划投资 1.8 亿元，完成 7.5 公里路网、

6 万平方米绿化等配套基础设施建设。目前，核电工业区 110KV 变电站三

层主体已封顶，明年 2 月投入运行。弱电管网、热力管道、供水管网、燃

气管网等配套工程明年 3 月将陆续随园区基础设施建设同步进行配套管道

铺设。今年，海阳核电工业区已签约引进过亿元项目 8 个，总投资 30.2

亿元，包括国家核电技术总公司、中国电力投资集团公司、中国核工业集

团总公司、中国核电建设集团公司、中国电力建设集团等 5 个央企项目。

目前，已开工项目 1 个，争取年内再开工项目 2 个，剩余项目明年春天全

面开工建设。

在核电重启大潮下，各地政府都在想方设法抓住重启机遇，欲抢先

占领市场。除了山东，四川、浙江等地也在加速推进核电产业园区建设。

此外，各地核电项目也在陆续复工。

山东荣成原发改委人士对记者证实，荣成石岛湾核电站 12 月中旬开

中俄签署田湾核电二期项目

尽管在天然气供应价格方面迟迟难以取得共识，但在西线上下游和

核能合作的敲定，预示了中俄能源合作领域进程在朝着更加积极的方向发

展。昨日，中俄能源谈判代表第九次会晤在莫斯科举行。会晤中，双方同

意应本着上下游一体化的原则开展石油天然气领域合作，将正式签署田湾

核电站二期政府间议定书并推进空间核动力等方面的合作，并加强核电站、

空间核动力、浮动堆、快堆及核燃料等领域一揽子合作，进一步扩大煤炭、

电力贸易，加大节能和发展可再生能源的研究和应用。

按照此前中俄双方签订的协议，中俄之间将铺设两条对华供气管道。

其中一条是从俄罗斯西伯利亚东部地区向中国新疆地区输气，另一条则由

西伯利亚西部地区和萨哈林岛油气田向中国东部地区输送，也即所谓的西

线和东线。按照计划，俄罗斯 2014-2015 年将在确定天然气供应价格后开

始实现对华天然气供应，供应量为 680 亿立方米 / 年。然而，由于俄方坚

持以对欧出口价和国内市场价来确定对华供气价格，并认为我国天然气价

格被严重低估，关键性的天然气价格商议迟迟未果。

双方强调，要按照一体化、收益共享、风险共担的新思路，探索西

线天然气上、下游合作，并推动东线天然气合作取得积极进展。双方还责

成各自企业根据本次会议确定的方向和原则，具体落实和推进天然气合作

项目。分析认为，当前世界能源供求格局正逐渐转变，利好我国与俄方天

然气谈判，围绕天然气价格的争议也将有望得到解决。

会晤后，双方有关部门签署了《中华人民共和国国家能源局和俄罗

斯联邦能源部关于开展能源市场态势评估合作的谅解备忘录》、《中俄煤

炭领域合作路线图》、《中俄煤炭合作工作组第一次会议纪要》、《中国

国家电网与俄罗斯东方能源公司关于 2013 年供电量和电价的协议》四项

合作文件。

12 月 4 日。

一业内人士昨日对早报记者称，目前已获得国家核安全局建造许可

的核反应堆还有三台，分别是田湾 3 号机组、福清 4 号机组以及阳江的 4

号机组。上述机组都将在今年开建。

早报记者昨日未能查到上述三台机组的批复许可。不过，业内人士称，

批复文件的公开一般有一定滞后性。

福岛核事故后，中国核电新批机组一度被冻结了 18 个月。久未有新

增项目的各大核电集团对推进新项目非常迫切，上述业内人士透露，“最

近大家跑审批都很卖力。”

一核电业内人士称，根据中长期核电发展规划，中国敲定的核电发

展目标是：2020 年已运行核电机组装机容量为 5800 万千瓦，在建核电机

组 3000 万千瓦。相比之前业内普遍预计的福岛核电事故后下调至 7000

万千瓦的数字，5800 万千瓦好比是紧箍咒一般，如果跑得晚了，可能排

不上队了。

87 新闻摘要

比利时　　人们期望比利时核能监管机构这个月能够决定是否允许比利

时 Electrabel 电力公司重启 Doel-3 反应堆和 Tinhange-2 反应

堆，6 个月前，由于超声波读数显示反应堆容器封头有裂痕，这

两个反应堆被关闭。现在 Electrabel 电力公司的反对者和核能

行业的反对者都在大肆鼓吹该事件会造成的不良影响。上个月，

法国苏伊士集团下属的 Electrabel 公司发布消息称，他们已经

对该事件做了深入调查，并推荐重新开启这两个反应堆。然而 1

月 10 日，欧洲绿党委任的材料学家兼顾问 Ilse Tweer 发表了一

篇关于反对重启核反应堆的报告。Tweer 的报告总结道“重启这

两个反应堆是一个危险举措。我们不能排除局部热应力会加大反

应堆容器封头的裂痕，从而导致反应堆运行失常，而这可能会造

成灾难性的后果，尤其是在人口密集的经济高速发达地区，这种

影响尤为严重。”

印度　　俄罗斯国际新闻通讯社称，俄罗斯高级官员 Nikolay

Patrushev 将要会见其印度同僚。1 月 10 日，其向俄罗斯记

者透漏印度政府极有可能与俄罗斯合作建造第二个核电站。

Patrushev 说道：“这是印度政府第一次谈到将为建造下一个核

电站留出一笔专款。”这个新的核电站将会位于印度泰米尔纳德

邦，目前该地区已建有 Kudankulam 核电站。印度政府计划今年

在该地区建造两个俄罗斯产的反应堆，并额外建立两个 Rosatom

反应堆。由于西孟加拉州政府极其反对该项目，一个新的核电站

可能会代替俄罗斯核电站转而在印度哈里普尔建立。与此同时，

尽管印度民众强烈反对在杰塔普建立核电站，印度官员却极力向

法国政府证实他们将会与法国合作在马哈拉施特拉邦建立核电

站。1 月 10 日，印度外交部长 Minister Salman Khurshid 在巴

黎会见法国同僚时在新闻发布会中讲到：“在印度核电行业，我

们仍在就杰塔普核电站项目做出努力。印法双发都在尽最大努力

确保该项目的安全。”

日本　　东京新闻在 1 月 6 日发布的一篇文章中称，日本政府正在考

虑对来自韩国、越南及亚洲其它国家的乏燃料进行后处理。然而

韩国首尔却驳回了这一观点，首尔现在正就重新签订 2014 年美

韩双边核能合作协议与美国华盛顿进行协商，这份协议将会允许

韩国高温处理本国的乏燃料。韩国称，由于美国已经同意日本优

先处理美国的乏燃料，因此韩国也希望具备再处理本国大量乏燃

料的能力。日本的这一项提议可以看作是美韩协商的最终答案，

然而首尔不会依赖日本进行本国的乏燃料后处理。韩国 Yonhap

新闻服务机构称韩国外交部发言人提到：“韩国政府尚未考虑这

一计划。”尽管日本延迟关闭大批本国核电机组，东京政府仍然

渴望能够开展后处理项目。即便韩国政府不肯合作，这项决议依

然能够反射出日本期望向越南核电站出售反应堆的愿望。

立陶宛　　立陶宛新的左翼政府表示维萨基纳斯核电站将会采用日立

公司设计的先进沸水堆，而就在 10 月发布的民意调查显示广大

民众对该项目持有反对意见。1 月 8 日，新上任的能源部部长

Jaroslav Neverovic 发言说：“如果这是最佳、最具现代化、

最安全可行的解决方案，如果这是一个局域性计划，维萨基纳

斯核电站项目可以继续。”资深政党联盟的合作伙伴——社会民

主工党早在民意调查公布之前就对该项目进行过猛烈抨击，他认

为这根本不能解决立陶宛国内能源产品的不足问题。而立陶宛总

统 Dalia Grybauskaite 却大力支持该项目。与此同时，经济部

部长 1 月 8 日发言称将会指派新的人选管理维萨基纳斯核电站项

目。

俄罗斯　　Alstom-Atomenergomash 公司是法俄建立的生产涡轮机的合

资公司，该公司于 12 月末发言称将会在俄罗斯南部的伏尔加顿

斯克市制造印有 Arabelle 商标的反应堆用涡轮机。由于俄罗斯

的涡轮机生产能力水平低，成立于 2007 年的这家法俄合资公司

对于俄罗斯而言意义重大。合资公司的领导层称，启动该生产基

地的决议表明俄罗斯将会于 2013 年开始进行涡轮机的大批量成

产工作。早在苏维埃时期，伏尔加顿斯克市就是本国重型设备

的生产地，而至今却有 26 年闲置时间。Alstom-Atomenergomash

公司计划制造 Arabelle 牌涡轮机、1,200-1,800 MW 的发电机、

冷凝器及其它涡轮机匹配设备。报道称，第一批制造的两个涡轮

机将被用于俄罗斯加里宁格勒市的 Baltiysky 核电站。

美国　　1 月 7 日，联邦法院判决美国核管理委员会（以下简称

NRC）违背《美国环保法案》，原因是 NRC 未采纳民众意见同意

了安特吉能源公司可以享受当年印第安角第 3 核电站项目同样的

待遇，即不受纽约威彻斯特郡根据制定的消防安全条例的约束。

这源于2007年州众议院议员Richard Brodsky受理的一个案件，

当时案件参与人极其反对印第安角第 3 核电站项目享受免责待

遇。如今该法院作出以下裁决：NRC 要么必须解释民众反对安特

吉公司享受免责待遇的不合理之处；要么采取其它更为合理的措

施。2007 年 NRC 同意安特吉公司可以不受某些法规的制约，前

提是安特吉公司必须保证防火剂 Hemyc 有 1 个小时的耐烧能力，

NRC 之所以有如此要求是因为 2005 年人们发现 Hemyc 的耐烧能

力根本不足 1 个小时。联邦法院认为 NRC 同意的免责案件将会是

一个“复杂的防火承诺”，因为如果 Hemyc 不达标，运营商可能

会选用其它有效的替代方案。

芬兰　　由芬兰两大核电运行商 TVO 电力公司和 Fortum 电力公司共

同创建的合资公司——Posiva Oy 公司去年 12 月 28 日向芬兰就

业和经济部（以下简称 MEE）提交乏燃料地质处置库的建造许可

申请。MEE 将于 2014 年年底之前收集来自民众、股东的意见及

芬兰核能监管部门的安全评估。假设 MEE 同意颁发许可证，2015

年 Posiva Oy 公司将可以在奥尔基洛托核电站建造乏燃料处置

库，并可以从 2022 年开始进行废料处理。就目前的计划看来，

该处置库的乏燃料的来源有 TVO 公司在奥尔基洛托的两个反应

堆、Fortum 公司在洛维萨的两个反应堆以及其它在奥尔基洛托在

建和准备要建的反应堆。Fennovoima Oy 公司原计划建造一个独

立的反应堆，目前关于这一计划的进展尚未明确。如果 Posiva

公司同意接受 Fennovoima 公司的乏燃料，那么 Posiva 公司还要

再申请一个许可证。然而最近有消息称 Fennovoima 公司最大的

股东有意撤资，所以该公司和该项目前途未卜。
