Nuclear power generation NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NEW Handbook of small modular nuclear reactors M D Carelli, formerly Westinghouse and D T Ingersoll, NuScale Power, LLC, USA Woodhead Publishing Series in Energy No. 64

Small modular reactors (SMRs) are an advanced, safe type of nuclear reactor technology that are suitable for small and medium sized applications including both power and heat generation. In particular, their use as individual units or in combination to scale-up capacity offer benefits in terms of siting, installation, operation, lifecycle and economics in comparison to the development of larger nuclear plant for centralised electricity power grids. Interest has increased in the research and development of SMRs for both developing countries as well as such additional cogeneration options as industrial/ chemical process heat, desalination and district heating, and hydrogen production. This book reviews key issues in their development as well as international R&D in the field. CONTENTS

NEW Irradiation embrittlement of reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) in nuclear power plants Edited by N Soneda, Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry (CRIEPI), Japan Woodhead Publishing Series in Energy No. 26

The reactor pressure vessel (RPV) is central to a nuclear reactor. The main degradation mechanism affecting RPVs is irradiation embrittlement, where neutron bombardment from the nuclear reaction displaces atoms in the RPV steels. Inspection, testing, and appropriate maintenance are therefore required to ensure any damage is mitigated and thereby to allow the plant to continue generating power. Irradiation embrittlement of reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) in nuclear power plants discusses RPV design, embrittlement processes in RPVs in different reactor types as well as techniques for studying RPV embrittlement. CONTENTS

Part 1 Reactor pressure vessel (RPV) materials, design and manufacture: PPV design and fabrication; RPV materials; WWER-type RPV design and fabrication. Part 2 RPV embrittlement in operational power plants: Embrittlement of RPVs in pressurised water reactors (PWRs); Embrittlement of RPVs in WWER-type reactors; Surveillance of RPV embrittlement in light-water reactors; Surveillance of RPV embrittlement in magnox reactors. Part 3 Techniques for the study of RPV embrittlement: Irradiation simulation techniques; Microstructural characterisation techniques; Evaluating fracture toughness; The development of embrittlement trend curves; Comparing embrittlement trend curves.

Advanced separation technology is key to closing the nuclear fuel cycle and relieving future generations from the burden of radioactive waste produced by the nuclear power industry. Nuclear fuel reprocessing allows for reuse of useful fuel components for further power generation, while the separation of actinides, lanthanides and other fission products means that residual radioactive waste can be minimised. The future of the nuclear industry relies on the advancement of this technology to ensure environmental protection, criticality-safety and non-proliferation. Advanced separation techniques for nuclear fuel reprocessing and radioactive waste treatment provides a comprehensive and timely reference on the fundamental issues of radioactive materials separations, with critical reviews of established and emerging techniques.

S C Bhatia, Consultant

Fundamentals, processes and applications

Renewable energy is a natural energy which does not have a limited supply. Renewable energy can be used again and again and will never run out. Renewable energy is derived from natural processes that are replenished constantly. In its various forms, it derives directly from the sun, or from heat generated deep within the earth. Included in the definition is electricity and heat generated from solar, wind, ocean, hydropower, biomass, geothermal resources, and biofuels and hydrogen derived from renewable resources. The book is a complete treatise on renewable energy sources and also includes issues relating to biofuels. It aims to serve as a text for the undergraduate and postgraduate students in relevant disciplines and a reference for all the professionals in the related fields.

FOOD INDUSTRY NEW Heat treatment for insect control Developments and applications D Hammond, Themokil Ltd, UK Woodhead Publishing Series in Food Science, Technology and Nutrition No. 241

Stored product insects and other pests are a major hygiene and safety issue in many industries, from food production to the hotel trade. While fumigation has been the prevalent route for pest control, there remain issues with the toxicity of the chemicals used. With the phasing out of methyl bromide, heat treatment has emerged as one of the most promising new insect control methods and is becoming a critical element of integrated pest management. This book provides an overview of heat treatment for insect control. A section on fundamental issues is followed by chapters focusing on applications in different industries. CONTENTS

Waste minimisation; Process optimisation; Recovery, recycling and re-use; New products and processes; Environmental impact analysis.

Air

Chemistry, energy and the environment

The excellent canopy F Fahy, University of Southampton, UK We take it for granted, but without it we perish and if we continue to abuse it, it may kill us in the end. This fascinating text provides an understanding and appreciation of the role that air plays in our environment and its importance in relation to human life and technology. Aimed at those who are scientifically curious but who have no specialist training, it contains no mathematical equations and relies upon the qualitative descriptions and analogies to explain the more technical parts of the text together with simple home experiments to illustrate a range of air-based phenomena. Liberally illustrated with a range of line drawings and photographs, it recommends further reading for those who are motivated to learn more. This book offers invaluable background reading for both physics teachers and students. CONTENTS

Transport planning Local environmental sustainability

TRANSPORT PLANNING

Edited by S Buckingham, Brunel University and K Theobald, University of Northumbria, UK

Local environmental sustainability sets the context for local environmental sustainability and, in particular, considers how local government can promote sustainable development by building partnerships with different groups and organisations in the local community. Using case studies, individual chapters focus on different types of regional and local initiatives, the partnerships that have made them possible, and the key issues in making them effective. Local environmental sustainability provides a blueprint for both local governments and local communities to work together effectively for a more sustainable future. CONTENTS
