MHR-T power-technological complex: safety aspects

The paper deals with the safety assurance aspects of a power-technological complex for large-scale hydrogen production (MHR-T PTC) combining the innovative nuclear and hydrogen processes. It reviews practical realisation of the nuclear-hydrogen concept developed in early 1970s on the basis of high-temperature helium reactor plants of the fourth MHR-T generation, which allows production of high-temperature heat, 1000°C, for its simultaneous use in hydrogen production and electricity generation.
