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.”

Steady state permeation behavior of deuterium implanted into oxide free copper (50 µm thickness, 99.99% purity) and F82H (0.2 mm thickness) was investigated. The rate limiting process of the permeation through copper was determined from the results of the numerical analysis by TMAP code. Based on the numerical analysis, recombination coefficient and diffusion coefficient in the implantation region were derived, and implantation effects on the diffusion coefficient in the implantation region were also discussed. In the F82H experiment, strong effect of low energy deuterium implantation on the deuterium transport in the implantation region was observed.
