Nuclear Fuel Fabrication

Nuclear Fuel Fabrication 

China has established two nuclear fuel fabrication bases in northern and southern China respectively, and has gradually become capable of conducting R&D and manufacturing of high-performance fuel assemblies since the completion of its first PWR nuclear fuel fabrication line in 1987. Now China is able to mass-produce nuclear fuel assemblies of proprietary brands such as CF1, CF2 and CF3, nuclear fuel assemblies of well-known international brands such as VVER, AFA-3G, AP1000 and CANDU6, as well as spherical fuels for high temperature gas-cooled reactor, meeting the needs of both domestic and exported nuclear power plants. 

核燃料元件制造

自 1987年建成第一条压水堆核燃料元件生产线起，经多年发展，中国已建成南北两个核燃料元件制造基地，逐步具备高性能燃料元件研发制造能力。目前可规模化生产自主品牌 CF1、 CF2、 CF3核燃料元件， VVER、 AFA-3G、AP1000、CANDU6等国际知名品牌燃料组件，以及高温气冷堆球型燃料等，满足了国内核电发展和出口核电站的需要。
