France-based small modular reactor (SMR) startup Blue Capsule Technology has chosen CSTI Group for the design and construction of a test qualification loop, to be used in testing all thermo-hydraulic aspects of the reactor’s various components.
Blue Capsule said it is developing a high-temperature sodium-cooled 150-MWt SMR that can produce industrial-grade heat to 750°C, vapour to 650°C, and 50 MWe of electricity.
