- W2022857741 abstract "This paper summarises our recent investigations undertaken as part of the EURODESAL project on nuclear desalination, currently being carried out by a consortium of four European, and one Canadian, industrials and two leading EU R&D organisations. Major achievements of the project, as discussed in this paper are: Coherent demonstration of the technical feasibility of nuclear desalination through the elaboration of coupling schemes for optimum cogeneration of electricity and water and by exploring the unique capabilities of the innovative nuclear reactors and desalination technologies. Verification that the integrated system design does not adversely affect nuclear reactor safety. Development of codes and methods for an objective economic assessment of the competitiveness and sustainability of proposed options through comparison, in European conditions, with fossil energy based systems. Results obtained so far seem to be quite encouraging as regards the economical viability of nuclear desalination options. Thus, for example, specific desalination costs ($/m3 of desalted water) for nuclear systems, such as the AP-600 and the French PWR-900 (reference base case), coupled to multiple effect distillation (MED) or the reverse osmosis (RO) processes, are 30–60% lower than the desalination costs for fossil energy based systems, using pulverised coal and natural gas with combined cycle, at low discount rates and recommended fossil fuel prices. Even in the most unfavourable scenarios for nuclear energy (discount rate=10%, low fossil fuel costs) desalination costs with the nuclear reactors are 7–20% lower, depending upon the desalination capacities. Furthermore, with the advanced coupling schemes, utilising waste heat from nuclear reactors, the gains in specific desalination costs of nuclear systems are increased by another 2–15%, even without system and design optimisation. A preliminary evaluation shows that desalination costs with the GT-MHR, coupled to a MED process, could still be much lower than the above nuclear options for desalting capacities≤43 000 m3 per day. This is because its design intrinsically provides “virtually free” heat at ideal temperatures for desalination (80–100 °C)." @default.
