M. Kotzalas 2 DISCUSSION:
X-Energy discussed their methodology that they plan on using to develop their approach to developing its integrated safety analysis for their anticipated application for a TRISO-X fuel fabrication facility. X-Energy is currently developing its preliminary design.
They also discussed the qualifications of the team that is performing the integrated safety analyses (ISA), the applicability of the ISA to potential accident scenarios, how they plan to meet the design criteria, effects of natural phenomena, use of defense-in-depth, process hazards analyses methods, process safety information, nuclear criticality safety evaluations, and the accident consequence evaluation.
The discussion was held in the closed portion of the meeting relating to the specific methods that X-Energy is planning on using to evaluate chemical and radiological hazards at the facility.
ACTION ITEMS No regulatory decisions were made at the meeting.
