Rawatbhata

The time period when the sun is no more than 6 degrees below the horizon at either sunrise or sunset. The horizon should be clearly defined and the brightest stars should be visible under good atmospheric conditions (i.e. no moonlight, or other lights). One still should be able to carry on ordinary outdoor activities. The time period when the sun is between 12 and 18 degrees below the horizon at either sunrise or sunset. The sun does not contribute to the illumination of the sky before this time in the morning, or after this time in the evening. In the beginning of morning astronomical twilight and at the end of astronomical twilight in the evening, sky illumination is very faint, and might be undetectable.

Yet another leak has been reported within a month at the Rajasthan Atomic Power Station (RAPS) at Rawatbhata near Kota, exposing workers to tritium radiation, and causing concern among the country’s nuclear energy watchers. The senior management at Rawatbhata, a site getting ready for India’s second-biggest Nuclear Fuel Complex (NFC) with a capacity of 500 tonnes a year, however, has dismissed the leak as a “routine’ matter. Four maintenance workers were exposed to tritium radiation last Thursday (July 19), while repairing a faulty pipe in PHWR (pressurised heavy water reactor) Unit 4. The earlier incident, which took place on June 23, reportedly exposed more than 40 persons, working on a coolant at Unit 6, to tritium. “There is no incident or accident. Everything is normal here,” said C.P. Jamb, Director-General of RAPS, talking to The Hindu on the phone on Tuesday. Dr. Jamb confirmed Thursday’s leak and said the workers were taken off duty immediately, and put under care. “There are no symptoms on the workers. The radiation was well within limits — only 10-25 per cent of the annually permissible limits,” he said. “Such leaks are perhaps symptoms of a malady. This particular one needn’t be that serious, and could be termed a routine development, but such things are happening too often. India’s nuclear programme, as such, needs to be far more careful than what it is today,” said internationally-renowned physicist and Gandhian Surendra Gadekar, talking to this correspondent...

The Rajasthan Atomic Power Project (RAPP), located in Rawatbhata in the north Indian state of Rajasthan, currently has six pressurised heavy water reactor (PHWR) units, operating with a total installed capacity of 1,180MW. The Nuclear Power Corporation of India (NPCIL), the owner and operator of the plant, is increasing the existing capacity of the plant by constructing two more reactors Units 7 and 8. The first pour of concrete (FPC) for the seventh reactor of 700MW capacity was achieved in July 2011. The reactor is scheduled to be completed in December 2020. The start-up transformer (SUT) of the unit was also commissioned. The eighth reactor, which is also of 700MW capacity, is expected to be completed by December 2021. The civil works in both units are currently underway. The two PHWR reactors will increase the current capacity of the plant by 1,400MW, of which 700MW be allocated to the state of Rajasthan. Rajasthan atomic power plant history The first reactor was commissioned in December 1973 with an installed capacity of 100MW. The second reactor of 200MW capacity was synchronised to the grid in April 1981. The third and fourth reactors, each of 220MW capacity, began commercial operations in June 2000 and December 2000 respectively. The fifth reactor achieved first criticality in November 2009 and commenced commercial operations in February 2010. It also has an installed capacity of 220MW. The sixth unit of 220MW capacity attained the first criticality in January 2010...
