Seawater Pump Design Scheme for Phase I Project of Shandong Zhaoyuan Nuclear Power Plant Passes Review

On July 22, 2026, the industry review meeting for the seawater pump design scheme of the Phase I project of Shandong Zhaoyuan Nuclear Power Plant, organized by the China Nuclear Industry Survey and Design Association (hereinafter referred to as the Association), was successfully held at Changsha Pump Works Co., Ltd. The project involves four main types of equipment: seawater intake pumps, distribution pumps, and high/low-pressure backwash pumps. The seawater intake pump, as the core rotating equipment of the water intake and discharge system, adopts for the first time a large horizontal split-case pump configuration, undertaking long-distance, high-lift seawater delivery tasks. This breaks through the siting constraints of nuclear power plants adjacent to the coastline and provides important demonstration and technology promotion value for the application of HPR1000 at inland-side coastal sites. The review panel consists of...
