Album photo An Arch For Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant New Safe Confinement
Very rare! Limited edition !!
Published in France in limited edition by order of NOVARKA for employees in memory of participation in the project of construction of confinement at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. A very rare book.
This is a gem for Chernobyl fan. A rich illustrated book about the New Safe Confinement arch created over the Unit 4 of Chernobyl NPP by the Novarka Consortium.
It is the story of an unprecedented technical feat, the invention of an arch that offers the possibility of preventing a new drama for humanity.
Thousands of men and women made it watched by the entire planet, under extremely difficult conditions. How could a structure be designed that had to cover a fragile sarcophagus, urgently built right after the explosion of reactor 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and that continuously emitted a high level of radiation? How could a dismantling factory - which was, first and foremost, an arch - be imagined under such conditions with its dozens of tons of highly radioactive materials, without human intervention, under almost absolute confinement conditions so that no contaminated element would escape, whatever the circumstances? These are the challenges that the Novarka teams faced. And that they met. For humanity. For at least 100 years.
