The Dismantling
In April 1995 the responsible nuclear authority, the Ministry for Environment, Environmental Protection and Environmental Planning of the Land of Brandenburg issued the license for the decommissioning and partial dismantling of the Rheinsberg NPP. Based on this and other licenses the following activities were executed:
Secondary Circuit
From July 1995 until December 1997 the secondary circuit in the turbine hall and centre building was dismantled.
- General view on the turbine and generators
- Turbine ? Disassembling of the low pressure rotor
- Generator ? Taking out the inductor
- Dismantling the turbine foundation
Primary Circuit
During May 1997 until August 1998 the main equipment of the primary circuit (steam generator and main circulation pump including pipelines and steal constructions) was dismantled. Until 2002 the dismantling of primary circuit auxiliary systems followed (for example closed air cooling system, additional make-up system, and intermediate cooling circuit).
- Disassembling a steam generator
- Steam generator in 40-feet container
- Steam generator at the cutting place
- Dismantling a gas decay tank
