| 20090145659 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FINAL STORAGE AND SAFE OPERATION OF NUCLEAR POWER STATIONS - In order to provide a method with apparatuses for safe final storage of highly radioactive waste products while safely coping with a reactor core melt, and final storage of the highly radioactive as well as slightly radioactive and medium-radioactive inventory when dismantling the nuclear power station itself in situ, it is proposed that a metal-shell drilled shaft composed of a casting be used as the final storage shaft at the nuclear power station location to which the material to be finally stored is supplied via a bomb-proof transport tunnel, which is hermetically isolated from the biosphere, from the reactor building or temporary stored by means of a magnetic sliding trans-port system for introduction to store, with filled final store sections migrating into the earth's mantel after separation from the remaining shaft, with residual heat being produced and under the influence of the force of gravity. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20100031653 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE UTILIZATION OF SUPERCRITICAL SUBSURFACE STEAM IN COMBINATION WITH SUPERCRITICAL THERMAL AND HYDRAULIC POWER STATIONS - Disclosed are a method and a device for utilizing supercritical subsurface steam as combined supercritical thermal and hydraulic power stations at an efficiency of 50 percent, using molten bath superdeep drilling technology, a hydrofrac process, and the special properties of the supercritical subsurface steam, such as the drastic increase in the thermal capacity, reduced viscosity, and inorganic solubility. The multifunctional use of said technologies and physical properties of supercritical subsurface steam in the inventive method allows a supercritical subsurface boiler to be tapped rapidly and at a low cost at a great depth while making it possible to produce electricity, power, process steam, and heat almost anywhere at one tenth of the cost of conventional fuel technologies and comparable expenses. The supercritical process steam obtained from a closed forced subsurface-nature circuit is used in supercritical power stations featuring state-of-the-art steam turbine technology while the remaining pressure in the subsurface fluid is used for directly generating power and/or electricity after dissipating heat via hydraulic turbines. | 02-11-2010 |
