On October 4, 2018 the next start-up at “Baikal-1” research reactor complex was successfully carried out as part of experiments specified by the program on two experimental technological channels testing with low enrichment fuel.

During start-up the reactor was put at capacity level of 6 MW and operated during 3 hours 40 minutes, that corresponds to reactor operation period at the capacity level mentioned. Reactor experiment was carried out during the start-up under grant project “Development of Tritium Production Technology in TNR blanket with lead-lithium eutectics Li15.7Pb”.

The program of experiment was fully implemented. All reactor systems operated in standard mode.
