<strong>ACR</strong> <strong>Reactor</strong> Design utilizes<br />

proven features of CANDU<br />

• The cal<strong>and</strong>ria contains heavy water moderator<br />

• The end shields contain light water <strong>and</strong> shielding balls.<br />

• The shield tank contains light water, which serves as<br />

both a thermal <strong>and</strong> a biological shield<br />

• The cool moderator is independent of the hot,<br />

pressurized light water coolant in the fuel channels<br />
