Catalyst: Advances in nuclear power technology
TLF ID M015400
Imagine our world if nuclear power generation could be made safer. Discover how Chinese scientists have developed a new nuclear reactor that reduces the chances of the reactor overheating to the point of meltdown. To do this the pebble bed reactor uses advances in technology to replace the traditional water-cooled system. Watch how the reactor responds when Professor Wu Zongxin simulates a meltdown test scenario by switching off the new cooling system.
