The development of China's nuclear industry as an important part of the isotope products, radiation processing, nuclear equipment, reactors and technology as the main content of China's nuclear application technology industry, "Eleventh Five-Year" period will further accelerate the pace of development.
Nuclear applications is defined in addition to nuclear weapons and nuclear power, nuclear science and technology and information, materials, medicine, biology, environment, interdisciplinary integration and used in industry, agriculture, health, environmental protection, resource exploration and other areas of public safety high-tech. In recent years, semiconductor processing, medical radiation imaging, radiotherapy, food irradiation processing, polymer radiation processing, radiation breeding, isotopes, and instrumentation applications such as nuclear technology has been greatly developed. Now engaged in nuclear technology development and production units of about three hundred.
But at present, nuclear applications is still in the early stages of industrialization, industry size and contribution to national economies are still relatively small, compared with developed countries have significant gaps. Performance of the isotopes can be produced in our type of products only 10% in developed countries, many large nuclear medical equipment is also fully dependent on imports, industrial irradiation accelerator is mainly rely on imports, the radiation chemical product variety and small in scale, not high tech. In 2004, the National Development and Reform Commission of nuclear application technology industry as a key development of high-tech industry, proposed to use about five years time, the industry reached $ 100 billion in 2020 is expected to more than four hundred billion yuan.
From China Nuclear Industry Group Company, China's "15" has accumulated during a number of conditions of industrial applications of nuclear technology achievements, has been basically completed, or a new type of nuclear energy for seawater desalination plant, an explosion practical material inspection device, irradiated foam, portable media analyzer for burn treatment hydrogel dressing, high-energy high-power accelerator irradiation, bone cancer treatment drugs, "Lee Lord", the sewage treatment plant and other microbial development. These results with high technical content, market potential for our core application technology industry has provided a guarantee for sustainable development.
China's technology industry as the backbone of nuclear applications, the China National Nuclear Corporation to nuclear application technology industry in 2005 total assets of 20 billion yuan, sales income of 1.55 billion yuan. Group official said, "Eleventh Five-Year" period will apply nuclear technology industry as a new growth point, and strive to make China's nuclear application technology industry to achieve a new level, the basic isotope needed to solve the domestic supply of raw materials made the issue, several new class of chemical accelerators and radiation will accelerate new product to market, and the initial establishment of radiation processing and nuclear medicine testing, nuclear medicine supply of new service models. |
