Indian nuclear science took nimble steps towards n-power independence on Tuesday with the installation of an 80-tonne safety vessel in the 500-mw Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) at Kalpakkam. The indigenously-designed and fabricated vessel is the first crucial component to be erected at the plant, which is scheduled to go critical by September 2010. The vessel was designed by a team of scientists led by Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) director Dr Baldev Raj and fabricated at the plant campus.
