A method for irradiation of isotopes heavier chemical elements, conversion of nuclear energy into heat energy and equipment therefor.

摘要

The invention relates to a method for irradiating isotopes of heavy chemical elements, for the conversion of nuclear energy into heat energy, and a plant for its realization. The method enables the disposal of radionuclides by using relativistic ions for the irradiation of a deeply subcritical target containing radioactive wastes and / or actinides and / or nuclear fuel. The technical result of this invention is that the amount of heat and electricity generated and the amount of radioactive waste disposed increase. The plant implementing the process comprises successively a relativistic ion accelerator (1), a block for transport and input of the jet into a deep subcritical target (2), the deep subcritical target of heavy chemical elements (2) and a reserve block ( 4) and a heat transformer (5).
