Technical and economic analysis and research of nuclear energy seawater desalination
Large-scale seawater desalination plants will require a lot of cheap energy, and among the many energy solutions, nuclear energy is one of the ideal energy sources. This paper introduces the main technical scheme and application of nuclear seawater desalination. Taking the typical application scheme as an example, the construction investment and operation cost of nuclear seawater desalination are analyzed, and the cost control suggestions are put forward. On this basis, the economic evaluation method and applicability of nuclear seawater desalination are analyzed, laying a foundation for the subsequent large-scale application of nuclear seawater desalination.
