  Rosatom has achieved a landmark milestone in construction of a power unit with theinnovative fast neutron BREST-OD-300 reactor on the site of the Pilot demonstration energy complex (PDEC) in Seversk, Tomsk Region (West Siberia). This is the world’s first new generation lead-cooled fast reactor The steel reactor baseplate with the total weight of 165 tons has been installed. The workers have also loaded into the reactor shaft the first part of the reactor vessel – the lower tier of the containment. The containment structure is the outer part of the reactor vessel.

A 300 MW NPP powered by the lead-cooled BREST-OD-300 fast reactor, based on the principles of “natural safety”, is the k...

  PROF MIKE OZEKHOME, SAN, CON, OFR.  INTRODUCTION   “I like the noise of democracy.”  James Buchanan Jr. The lie that Nigeria is operating a multi-party system of politics or government, with a whopping 18 legally registered political parties (see: INEC, 2023), is daily being perforated by the actual practice of politics (realpolitik, as the Germans call it) in the country; a classic example of appearance being way different from reality.
