JSC Atomenergoprom Annual Report

JSC ATOMENERGOPROM / ANNUAL REPORT / 86
The engineering design was developed for the RITM-200N reactor unit; it has enhanced characteristics
compared to the RITM-200 marine reactor unit and has been adapted for onshore use.
The Company continued to cooperate with potential foreign customers for small NPPs; a number of doc-
uments were signed as part of exploration of opportunities for cooperation in the construction of new
Russian-design nuclear power units, including in Kyrgyzstan, Myanmar and other countries.
The Mechanical Engineering Division is building follow-on floating power units (FPUs), the Company's
new promising product designed to provide power supply to remote areas and new industrial clusters and
production facilities. In 2022, the Division started to manufacture RITM-200S reactor units for the FPUS
ordered from the Company to provide power supply for the Baimskaya Ore Zone. In addition, the hulls of
the first two FPUS for LLC GDK Baimskaya were laid in the reporting year.
A total of four FPUs with installed power generation capacity of up to 110 MW each (three main FPUs and
one standby FPU) will be produced. The project to provide power supply for the Baimskaya Ore Zone has
given impetus for the development of an entire family of FPUs differing in terms of their capacity and
applications (designed for use in the Arctic and in tropical regions), providing opportunities for the imple-
mentation of large-scale industrial projects and exports from the Russian Federation.
Environmental protection
As part of the Infrastructure for the Management of Hazard Class 1 and 2 Waste Federal Project, in 2022,
ROSATOM (with assistance from JSC Atomenergoprom's organisations) carried out preparatory, construc-
tion and installation work at the sites of industrial facilities in the Saratov and Kurgan Regions (the Gorny
and Schuchye facilities); main steel structures were assembled; the construction of new buildings and
deliveries of process equipment were started. In addition, construction was started in the Kirov Region
and the Udmurt Republic (the Maradykovsky and Kambarka facilities); preparatory work was carried out.
Positive opinions following state expert reviews and construction permits were obtained for greenfield
industrial facilities to be built in the Irkutsk and Tomsk Regions (the Vostok and Western Siberia facilities);
construction contracts were concluded, and preparatory work was started. A contract was concluded for
the development of design documentation and the construction of the RG Centre industrial facility in the
Nizhny Novgorod Region.
As part of the Clean Country and Preservation of Lake Baikal Federal Projects, the Company continued the
remediation of particularly challenging legacy sites causing environmental damage.
Work was started as part of the project to repair historical environmental damage at the Krasny Bor toxic
industrial waste landfill. Construction of a multilayer cut-off wall surrounding the landfill site was under-
way; it is designed for groundwater diversion and prevents the seepage of contaminants to adjacent areas.
The structure will be equipped with an automated control system. In addition, the construction of infra-
structure for wastewater treatment and for the processing of liquid and paste-like waste stored in open
landfill cells was started.
Government contracts were concluded as part of the project to repair historical environmental damage in
the Usolye-Sibirskoye municipality (Irkutsk Region). The dismantling of 243 buildings and structures was
completed; in addition, 136.18 tonnes of hazard class 2, 3 and 4 waste moved from 17 dilapidated tanks
into new tanks in 2020 were removed from the Usolyekhim prom industrial site and transferred to special-
ised organisations for disposal.
As part of the project to repair historical environmental damage from the operations of OJSC Baykalsk
Pulp and Paper Mill (BPPM), measures were implemented to lower the water level above the sludge layer
in landfill cells at the Babkhinsky and Solzansky landfills. This helped to prevent potential contamination
of Lake Baikal with waste generated by the enterprise. About 70,000 m³ of wastewater was treated and
transferred to municipal sewage treatment facilities in Baykalsk.
In 2023, the Company will continue to build infrastructure to enable the safe management of hazard class 1 and 2
waste, with the Gorny and Schuchye sites to be commissioned in December 2023.
In 2023, the Company will continue to take steps to repair environmental damage caused by legacy sites.
Measures to repair historical environmental damage at the Krasny Bor landfill site are scheduled to be com-
pleted in 2025, while work in the Usolye-Sibirskoye municipality and at the site of OJSC BPPM (the Babkh-
insky landfill and the site of the central wastewater treatment facilities) is scheduled for completion in 2026.
Nuclear medicine
Despite restrictions, in 2022, ROSATOM and JSC Atomenergoprom managed to increase their overseas
revenue from isotope products by 8.6%.
In the reporting year, JSC Isotope Regional Alliance concluded 149 new contracts to supply isotope prod-
ucts abroad. Logistics, supply chains and payment arrangements were redesigned.
Imports of life-saving drugs were replaced. More specifically, deliveries of radioimmunoassay (RIA) kits
produced in the Republic of Belarus were started in order to replace brands that had left Russia, and the
supply of samarium-153 oxabifor for the treatment of bone metastases was increased by 53%.
Agreement was reached with foreign consumers of cobalt-60 to supply material from Russian targets.
Enriched zirconium-96 was produced in gas centrifuges for the first time in the world and was delivered to
a customer.
