China's nuclear application technology industry will speed up development and provide guarantee for the sustainable development of China's technology

China's nuclear application technology industry, which focuses on isotope products, radiation processing, nuclear instrument equipment, and reactor technology, will further accelerate its development during the “11th Five-Year Plan” period.

At present, there are more than 300 companies engaged in the development and production of nuclear technology in China. However, at present, China's nuclear application technology is still in the initial stage of industrialization, and there is a clear gap compared with developed countries. The types of isotope products that can be produced in China are only 10% of that in developed countries. There are few types of radiation chemical products, small scale, and low technical content.

China has accumulated a number of nuclear application technologies with industrial conditions during the 10th Five-Year Plan period. At present, it has completed or basically completed a new type of nuclear energy device that can be used for seawater desalination, a practical explosives inspection device, and irradiated foam materials. , portable media analyzers, hydrogel dressings for burn treatment, high-energy high-power irradiation accelerators, and sewage microbial treatment devices. These achievements have high technological content and great market potential, which provide guarantee for the sustainable development of China's nuclear application technology industry.
