Chinese Team Achieves Full Technical Chain Integration in Wall Treatment for the World's Largest "Artificial Sun"
Recently, the team from the Southwestern Institute of Physics under the China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) has made significant progress in the wall treatment technology of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER): not only successfully passing the Delta Final Design Review (Delta FDR) for the supplementary design of the Glow Discharge Cleaning (GDC) system permanent electrode project, but also, leading and jointly with CNI23, winning the bid and signing contracts in France for the design and manufacture of the boronization system and the X-ray Crystal Spectrometer (XRCS) gas supply system. This marks a new expansion of the Chinese team's core technology in ITER wall treatment, extending the scope from the original glow discharge cleaning to boronization wall treatment, achieving a full technical chain from impurity removal to surface pre-treatment...
