Abstract
The water shortage in the developing countries, such as middle-east countries, is becoming very severe and the land of several million hectares around those countries is also becoming deserted. The seawater desalination by nuclear energy is now being discussed at the IAEA, in response to the request from those countries. Recently, several small and medium reactors have been proposed by the member states of IAEA as the energy source for seawater desalination and also several related issues are being discussed. The production of potable water using small reactor (4S, Super Safe, Small and Simple-LMR), which has been proposed by CRIEPI and Toshiba, and its application for the plantation to prevent the desertification are described here. A challenge to the global environmental issues, such as prevention of desertification by the plantation and adsorption of carbon dioxide in the plantation is also described.
