- To achieve the target of net-zero emissions, atomic energy will play a big part in India's energy transition strategy. In a rare access, NDTV visited the one-of-a-kind and highly guarded experimental nuclear reactor that breeds more fuel than it consumes to generate energy. Called the Fast Breeder Test Reactor, it has been the test bed for India's ambitious 500 MW Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor. Fast Breeder Reactors are one of a kind atomic reactors. Only Russia and India have operating fast-breeder reactors. Nuclear energy does not emit carbon.

![THORIUM: World's CHEAPEST Energy! [Science Unveiled]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/U434Sy9BGf8/mqdefault.jpg)
Scientists and engineers like Shanmugam Sir are heroes of India, not just big names in Silicon Valley. We need more experts like Shanmugam here in India. Simple and dedicated to India and its prosperity.God bless you Shanmugam Sir.
pls don't judge this engineer by his English, Tamils learn technology mostly in Tamil unto 12 standard, but technically they are quite competent.
Smart people don't judge others by language. Less educated and highly educated dumb morons judge people on their English speaking & writing skills.
I actually like the idea of learning in the native languages. It definitely makes the life easier and people should be proud of it
No one will judge him who understand engineering
Best MIT professors have heavy accents.
Of course they are competent in their work but that is not what is at test here. Here we need some one who can explain a complex science in a simple understandable form and deliver it in a language that he masters. Mr. Shanmugham is surely a very competent engineer but he is neither proficient in the English language nor is he able to break down his knowledge in to simple building blocks for people to understand. They should have prepared him better and asked him to deliver it in Tamil with a translator or better still got another person to do the job. Why must a station in charge have to come forward to explain this. This is the problem with hierarchy in Indian departments. It has to be the boss! Why is that. Are there no eloquent and knowledgeable people in the lower ranks?
The answer you are looking for is given after 7:44 😂
Kuduos to engineer's, scientist & other staff workers for their hardwork & dedication. They way director sir explained everything is so nice 🙏🔥✨ .... thanks NDTV to share information 👍
Dont worry they wont replicate it, because their masters are Naukars of USA ?
India does have domestic supplies of uranium - but every time we try to mine it, some protest groups mysteriously show up to oppose such mining.
It's very strange that we've not learned how to handle such problems.
there are ways to get it without destroying nature, once destroyed it is very difficult to restore natural beauty, India is blessed with good natural environment as well
@@apoorv_mc - which ways are you speaking of, and why do you assume otherwise?
Apporv
Sorry, in fact it's very hard to destroy nature. look at past examples of abandoned open cast coal mines , or Chernobyl nuclear disaster area. They're thriving natural experiments in restoration. Sure, it does take time, but nature ultimately wins in all it's complicated beauty
Dont worry they wont replicate it, because their masters are Naukars of USA ?
@@apoorv_mc ok mr Scientist tell me how to get it without mining??? Everyone on the Internet is a know it all ch*tiya nowadays
💪🇮🇳💪🕉️💪 Incredible Bharat. Jai Hind
Recommended speed: 2x not kidding
Thanks mate
😂
😂👌
Excellent update on the Fast Breeder Reactor. Salute to scientist like Shanmugam Sir. He mentioned that the prototype Fast Breeder Reactor will become critical this year. Wish more funds were allocated to this program to expedite the process.
NDTV you should have gotten someone better for the interview. Having a nuclear industry is one of the biggest achievements of India since independence. It should receive much more respect and media attention.
Long awaited video sir .. thank You sir
Usa is also not using fast breeding reactor
Nuclear power plants are the need of the hour for India's energy needs.
Well-done to you all
Great ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
My congratulations to India and their Fast Breeder Reactor.
fast breeder reactors are very important technology
GOOD THAT THEY ARE OUTSIDE OF THE NPT.
Good to see this video ❤ what is SMRs can anyone please explain in detail ? And how many years it Will take to move india from 5 th postion to 1 st position in nuclear world ??
Both the interviewer and interviewee are poor communicators. Science communication is important to create a new generation of scientists. Government jobs with no time bound goals..
communication skills shouldnt overtake scientific skills . after all a country doesnt develops depending on how fluently their scientists can speak english
UPSC in interview, would ask..How it is fast??? Since took 50 years..
As Sir Said, FAST here is not about time taken to develop it, rather it is about the FAST moving neutrons that are not slowed down by any moderator in 2nd stage FBRs
As u said , UPSC would sure gring the interview candidates 😂😂
To bhai tum aakr bana do reactor
The interviewer almost forgotten english .... by association!! Wonder full !
Why expose such type of confidential information in public domain? ???
Confidential info ?
Where?
@@sidharthcs2110he is a delusional 90s Bollywood dreamer, he's dumb and can't distinguish b/w confidential and literally nothing
It's weird PPL even thinks what they showed us is "confidential" fkn ret**d@cy in this country
Save Energy
Good for India and Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Only 2 countries have this type of commercial FAST breeder reactors.
How safe is to allow others, even media in very sensitive zones.
This is the control room of only a test reactor.
Every region is safe, only regions within the reactor, which is unsafe is the core structure, and this area is covered with only one entry-exit point. and that point 3 layer of stell door are install.
😑
That too as dubious as Pallav baghla who could be a Beijing mole masked as journo.
@@bowman3431people like you really stand out with your buffoonery.
How many more decades do we need to wait.
😂what are you waiting for btw?
@@kirakd7204 6 months
Commissioned
I think the radiation has effected the guy in the light orange striped shirt
take a shot for every time he says FBTR
Man talks very slow. Had to run it at 1.2x the speed.
Plutonium is used in making atom bomb ! How it is awaste ?
‘Waste’. Also not all isotopes of Plutonium.
our goal is to make energy not nuclear bombs
There is difference between weapons grade plutonium and plutonium from waste
@@dinesharumugam9812 dont worry , this kid who havent even completed 10th grade thinks he knows more about nuclear science than a guy who have done a phd in it as well as a have a lot of work experience .
❤❤
Why's my man talking in 0.75x
🎉🙏
Watch from 3:00 onwards. Don't waste time on intro.
👍
WASTE TO WEALTH. I LIKE THAT.
Commendable work done. India has foresight and direct about nuclear. However I think this will not add to much our energy basket. Progess is too slow. It took 38 year. I am guessing by the time there is commercial reactor ready it will be 2050. Solar power is already cheaper add to the storage cost still be cheaper. I think it's cool but we not useful.
you need to stop looking at your watch while interviewing
Analogue controls look like Chernobyl plant from Ukraine.
No - These are not from Russia. Reactor is similar to Rapsodie of France which is no longer operational. The Control room Electronics is completely built by India - ECIL & BARC & IGCAR were involved.
But it looks like Chernobyl.
@@rajpawar9343 I am sure many would say you look like Rahul bhaiyya.
You are having too much nostalgia and film buzz in your head this is not an RBMK reactor... 😂😂😂
And there is no 20 Mega ton lid in the reactor which will blast off 😂
I mean an XBox and a ultrawide TV would seen out of place no?
You don't want to emulate Russia as far as Nuclear Reactors go.
Check our Russian civil nuclear tech export numbers.....it's one of the leading player. The accident happened even in Japan and US (not of that scale but still...). RBMK reactor accident was due to humane error (and perhaps overconfidence of designers upto certain extent) but that doesn't make russian nuclear program inferior
Have you heard of ROSATOM ?
"7:42 -
It is not a breeding fastu"
Building strongu, but basement thaaan weeeakku!
Here the program may have been good but the political management is a problem. We, 19-20 then, toured the kalpakkam FBTR from Loyola College in 1982-83, as students of Dr. Yedanapalli, Industrial Chemistry, an elective course - just before it was to go 'alive'. I wish I had seen someone with expertise giving the interview. I am not critiquing their accent or command of English.
Dont worry they wont replicate it, because their masters are Naukars of USA ?
What a snob you are @gvenkata..
😊
🙄 Seem's like Soviet Union /Russian based Nuclear power plant design
it isnt , it is a reactor completely made by us . with that logic all fighter planes looks almost same , but that doesnt mean all are same and made by a single country . use your common sense 😑😑
@@sarthaksingh8863 I'm talking about the technical design not the look and yes it's true India learnt lot of technology from Soviet Union /Russia.
@@Ashwanikumar05 Russian nuclear reactor is 800MW reactor and Indian rector is 500Mw reactor and another 600Mw reactor
This looks like a Russian style system
Russian technology or China technology reactors 🤔🤔🤔
Russia technology
Dumbo this is Indian technology.
Even china lacks commercially available fast breeder reactors.
Indian reactor has capacity of 500mw and 600mw.
Whereas russian reactor have 800Mw reactor.
Only 2 countries in the world have commercially operated fast breeder reactors.
Very disappointing journalism, didn't even show about their working
Because NDTV is in tha hand of Adani ..
What adani has to do here?
This is what happens when you do not prepare the scientist or the engineer for the interview! Their vast knowledge is plagued by unplanned, unstructured, un simplified, unreachable (to the public) delivery of knowledge. Totally useless for the public. Sometimes you chose a wrong person to interview as well since not all can explain complex knowledge in simple language. The reporter is actually leading the engineer here so whose interview is this? 😂😂
No wonder the breeder reactor program is delayed by 38 years, with such jokers heading the program. China already has an operational Fast Breeder Reactor. The reactor has a thermal capacity of 65 MW and can produce 20 MW in electrical power. The CEFR was built by Russia's OKBM Afrikantov in collaboration with OKB Gidropress, NIKIET and the Kurchatov Institute.
First concrete for the Chinese Fast Breeder Rector was poured in May 2000. The reactor achieved first criticality in July 2010 and was connected to the grid at 40% capacity a year later.
CEFR is experimental reactor. What India is aiming towards PFBR, proto-type fast reactor, 1200 MWth. Obviously, scaleup will have its own issues.
i was expecting this comment. anything which is new and "first in the world" takes time . there were a lot of technical issues which we had to solve ourself as we are the first making this reactor . that chinese reactor uses other technology and comparing that to pfbr shows you know little to none in this field . all you want to do is comment some bs , blame government ,scientist and demoralize our youth
@@sarthaksingh8863 Taking 38 years to solve Technical issues must be some world record. You would have been fired LONG LONG Time back if you were working in some private company with such excuses.
It takes some gall to now brag when we have the chinese project delivery right in front of you.
If our "youth" are demoralized by you tube comments and not by the 38 years delay then they are not only Lazy and entitled, but also delusional.
@@odomangulati7079 first of all it only took 20 yrs though it is still a lot and second , science takes time . specially something as complex as nuclear engineering. the reason we were so much advancing in science during cold war was because USSR,USA were investing like crazy on science projects but once the cold war ended we are back to slow pace . this is the reason why only some countries have fast breeders reactors despite their invention in 1960s . the delay is not because of govt. or something . neither our nuclear scientist are not talented enough. its becaue the complexity involve in the project . and tbh i have seen no sensible person to complain and get demotivated because this project took 20 yrs . everybody understands that science takes time and it isnt that easy .especially when we are the one doing it for first time
@@odomangulati7079 i would not say those are "technical issues" . technical issues are usually just some minor issues in final product . while those issues challenge our understanding of physics and engineering .technical issues are an understatement . those issues are complexities for which we need to alter our understanding of physics and engineering to finally succeed (which we did).
WASTE TO WEALTH!❤
Typical immature, impatient and arrogant NDTV journalist
What happened bro?
Kid won't get professor lectures
