CONDENSATE RECOVERY SYSTEM FOR POWER SUPPLY OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANT Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC B01D5/00 E03B3/28 G21D1/02 

FIELD: nuclear power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to recovery systems for energy discharge of nuclear power plants using thermal energy and air humidity above waste cooling water of nuclear power plant. Condensate recovery system of power supply of nuclear power plant includes nuclear power plant, facility for air intake, compressor, condenser, drop catcher, water chamber equipped with sprinkler, electric current generator, pure water pumping station, cooling water pumping station, primary condensate basin, secondary condensate pool and turbine expander. Air intake device is connected to the compressor connected to the condenser connected to the drip pan. Condenser and drop catcher are connected to primary condensate pool. Drip pan is connected to turbo-expander equipped with electric current generator and connected to water chamber connected to secondary condensate pool. Primary and secondary condensate pools are communicated with clean water pumping station. Capacitor is connected to cooling water pumping station. All connections are made in the form of pressure pipelines. At that, air intake device is arranged in NPP waste water channel connected to nuclear power plant, and is made in the form of bubbling tubes connected by an air duct to a water chamber. Discharge water channel is equipped with sealed cover.

EFFECT: condensate recovery system of power supply of nuclear power plant provides high efficiency of fresh water production in any conditions due to recuperation of heat energy of discharge channel of NPP, and also reduces negative impact of waste water on environment and increases overall heat utilization rate of nuclear power plants.
