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.”

Heat of transports Q* of hydrogen isotopes in the α-phase of Zr have been measured in temperature regions from 623K to 673K for H and from 523K to 623K for T by analysing the redistribution process under a thermal gradient. An isotope mass dependence of Q* has not been unequivocally established though a tendency that Q*(H)>Q*(T) has been observed. These data have been discussed on the basis of the biased-jump diffusion model, and a large negative bias effect has been pointed out as characteristics of Q* of hydrogen isotopes in group-IV metals in comparison with the case of group-V metals.
