ENRICO FERMI ATOMIC POWER PLANT
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4315470
The fast breeder reactor designed and developed during the past six years is being installed in the Enrico Fermi Atomic Power Plant. This plant is being constructed by the Power Reactor Development Compary and the Detroit Edison Company under the Atomic Energy Commission power demonatration reactor program. On the basis of work done to date, the breeder reactor continues to be a promising type for the eventual development of electric power from nuclear fission on a commercially feasible basis. Construction is in progress pursuant to a permit issued by the AEC. The reactor, a full-scale developmental fast breeder, with a design rating of 300 Mw and 100 Mw, is being built on land leased from the Detroit Edison Company. The latter will construct, own, and operate adjacent turbine generating facilities and will purchase the steam required for those facilities from Power Reactor Development Company. Design work on the nuclear and nonnuclear portions of the plant is well advanced. (A.C.)
