A process for reducing pressure of a vapor stream used for reducing a temperature or pressure in a reactor. A pressure of a vapor stream is reduced with a turbine to provide a lower pressure vapor stream. The vapor stream rotates a turbine wheel within the turbine. The turbine wheel is configured to transmit rotational movement to an electrical generator. Thus, electricity is generated with the turbine. The lower pressure vapor stream is injected into a reactor and reduces a temperature in the reactor or reduces a partial pressure of a hydrocarbon vapor in the reactor.

A process for reducing pressure of a vapor stream wherein the vapor stream rotates a turbine wheel within the turbine to transmit rotational movement to an electrical generator and generate electricity. The resulting lower pressure vapor stream reduces a partial pressure of a hydrocarbon vapor or is injected into a reactor to reduce a temperature in the reactor. A recovered electric power measuring system comprises at least one processor; at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions; and at least one receiver configured to receive data from a sensor on an electrical powerline connected to a generator of a turbine, the turbine in fluid communication with a vapor stream wherein the turbine reduces the pressure of the vapor stream and the resulting lower pressure vapor stream is injected into a reactor to reduce a temperature in the reactor or to reduce a partial pressure of hydrocarbon vapor in the reactor.

The present disclosure relates to a seawater desalination system which improves energy efficiency by applying a heated cooling water discharged from a nuclear power plant and high-temperature steam generated in a nuclear reactor to seawater desalination. A seawater desalination system related to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a steam supply pipe 40 which supplies heat exchange steam that is a part of the steam discharged from a turbine 20; a seawater supply pipe 36 which diverges from a discharge pipe 34; and a heat exchanger 50 which is connected to the steam supply pipe 40 so as to be supplied with the heat exchange steam, and connected to the seawater supply pipe 36 so as to be supplied with first seawater that is a part of the seawater discharged from a condenser 30, in which the heat exchanger 50 increases a water temperature of the first seawater by using heat included in the heat exchange steam, and the first seawater with the increased water temperature is supplied to the fresh water-generating unit 2 through a connection pipe 4, such that desalination of the first seawater is performed.
