Recently, the two million-kilowatt units exported by China's “Hualong One” to Pakistan were officially delivered to the Pakistani side after commissioning, marking the full completion of the first overseas “Hualong One” project. CTC participated in the research, development, and application of medium- and low-level radioactive waste treatment technology for the Karachi Nuclear Power Plant K-2/K-3 units, and received full recognition and unanimous praise from the project acceptance expert group.

The treatment of medium- and low-level radioactive waste at nuclear power plants is a necessary prerequisite for the commissioning of nuclear power plants. Complete sets of waste treatment process technology have long been monopolized by foreign countries, severely restricting the development of China's nuclear power industry. After more than 10 years of research and development, CTC has formed a complete set of mature medium- and low-level radioactive waste treatment technology, completed cement solidification technology achievements for various types of nuclear power radioactive waste, and applied them in the Karachi Nuclear Power K-2/K-3 units in Pakistan.

At the project acceptance meeting, Ye Qizhen, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and Head of the Expert Group, and Xing Ji, Chief Designer of the “Hualong One,” spoke highly of the research work of the CTC team, believing that the research results solved the possible export restrictions on the cement solidification system of the “Hualong One” project and the possible restrictions on nuclear energy technology exports to China by relevant countries. The results possess independent intellectual property rights, have reached the international advanced level, deliver good economic and social benefits, and have made positive contributions to the Belt and Road Initiative.

Currently, CTC has provided medium- and low-level radioactive waste treatment technology R&D services for multiple nuclear power plants, including Hainan Nuclear Power, Hongyanhe Nuclear Power, Tianwan Nuclear Power, and Haiyang Nuclear Power, and its R&D results have been widely recognized. CTC will fulfill its duties and demonstrate the responsibility of a central government-owned enterprise, continue to scale new heights, help the country build an international nuclear power brand, and contribute to the vigorous development of China's nuclear power industry.
