Equipment dismantling under Project B-9/1(2)

Progress of equipment dismantling and decontamination works

In January 2014 performance of preparatory works has started:

• Preparation of a site for the packaging and transportation of relatively non-radioactive waste that does not require shredding;
• Preparation of a site for entry/exit of vehicles with HHISO containers in order to retain heat during the autumn and winter seasons;
• Removal of equipment and piping insulation in closed compartments.

In July 2014 dismantling of uncontaminated equipment started (after receiving an amended license with a permit from VATESI to perform equipment dismantling works).

Works done:

• Dismantling of electrical wires, alt. +9.6;
• Dismantling of the third turbine backup exciter and exciters of turbines No 3 and 4;
• Dismantling of water circulation system;
• Dismantling of lubrication system of turbines No 3 and 4;
• Dismantling of the generator stator cooling system;
• Dismantling of the third and fourth turbine equipment;
• Dismantling of drainage pumps of the third and fourth turbine equipment;
• Dismantling of pipelines and condensate pumps;
• Dismantling of heating networks and steam generator;
• Packaging and transportation of heat insulation;
• Retrieval of condensate tubes;
• Dismantling of turbines No 3 and 4.

Works in progress:

• Dismantling of pipelines of the third and fourth turbine;
• Dismantling of electrical equipment.
  
  According to the data available by the end of 2020, 98% of equipment has been dismantled (in tons).

Pre-treated and transported - 81% of the dismantled equipment.

The dismantling works are scheduled to be completed in 2021.
