North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Desorption behavior of D2O or H2O, as a simulant of HTO, on iron surface covered with thin iron oxide film was studied by photon stimulated desorption (PSD) using deuterium lamp, Hg-Xe lamp and dye laser as photon sources. When the iron was irradiated with photon, water or hydrogen molecules were desorbed. Desorption behavior of water and hydrogen molecules depended on the incident energy of photon. Desorption mechanism of water and hydrogen molecules by photon irradiation is discussed.
