The advanced  SMRs currently under development in the U.S. represent a variety of  sizes, technology options and deployment scenarios. These advanced  reactors, envisioned to vary in size from a couple megawatts up to  hundreds of megawatts can be used for power generation, process heat,  desalination, or other industrial uses. In-depth chapters describe how  advanced SMRs offer multiple advantages, such as relatively small size,  reduced capital investment, location flexibility, and provisions for  incremental power additions. SMRs also offer distinct safeguards,  security and nonproliferation advantages. The authors present a thorough  examination of the technology and defend methods by which the new  generation of nuclear power plants known as GEN-IV can safely be used as  an efficient source of renewable energy. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides a unique and innovative approach to the implementation of Small Modular Reactor as part of GEN-IV technology; \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses how Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) can deliver a viable alternative to Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs);\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents  an argument defending the need for nuclear power plant as a source of  energy, its efficiency and cost effectiveness, as well as safety related  issues.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2020-08-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030236847\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-23682-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 220\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45589553643660,"sku":"9783030236847","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030236847.jpg?v=1776038494","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783030236847","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
