We are thrilled to hear about the successful installation of the Changjiang multipurpose modular small reactor reported by China Nuclear Engineering Co., Ltd. on August 10th. This inspires everyone at Honghun. We commend the nation's progress in nuclear power development. Taking this opportunity, we would like to introduce some of our company's products dedicated to nuclear power, thermal power, etc., developed with significant investment. As the saying goes, "outsiders watch the excitement, insiders watch the details." We hope more industry experts will learn about us and create opportunities for cooperation, better serving the construction of major national projects in nuclear power, thermal power, petrochemicals, etc. Honghun's near-net-shape hot extrusion forming is a green manufacturing process, replacing traditional casting and free forging. It represents innovation and high-quality manufacturing. Leveraging the advantages of 50,000-ton heavy equipment, we are revolutionizing traditional manufacturing. Honghun Nuclear Equipment is the birthplace of innovation and planning for these products. The development of these long-life, high-grade products is a component of building a century-old Honghun. Thank you to our supportive, caring, and attentive friends.

Forwarded from an article published by China Nuclear Power Engineering Co., Ltd.: At 10:46 am on August 10, 2023, the reactor core module of the Hainan Changjiang Multipurpose Modular Small Reactor "Linglong No. 1"—the "Linglong Heart"—was successfully installed. This is the first milestone on the critical path of the Linglong No. 1 nuclear island equipment installation, and it is a "first show" of modular manufacturing and installation of nuclear reactors, representing a historic step forward for global nuclear miniaturization and marking China's leading position in the construction of modular small reactors.

The Hainan Nuclear Power Multipurpose Modular Small Reactor Technology Demonstration Project commenced construction in Hainan on July 13, 2021, and is general contracted by China Nuclear Power Engineering Co., Ltd. To ensure comprehensive control of project quality, the China Nuclear Engineering Hainan project team made overall plans, and worked closely with the owner and construction units to effectively overcome various difficulties, including unpredictable weather, high equipment stability requirements, and lack of first-reactor experience, finally achieving the goal of "full preparation, one-time success".

As the reactor building and the heart of the nuclear power plant, and as equipment with the highest safety, regulatory, and quality levels in the reactor building, the "Linglong Heart," unlike the "Hualong No. 1" reactor pressure vessel, breaks away from the current style of traditional nuclear power pressure vessels. It successfully integrates the direct current steam generator, main pipeline cold section, hot section, transition section, and main pump casing into the pressure vessel, forming a pressure vessel under an integrated module. Its innovative design not only improves the safety and reliability of nuclear power plants but also greatly shortens the construction period and improves economic efficiency. It is the crystallization of advanced design concepts in China's nuclear industry.……………………
