Abstract

A general survey is presented of energy supplies in the Arab countries. Technologies to exploit nuclear resources are needed in order to ensure a secure energy future. The advantages of introducing nuclear energy into the Arab countries are discussed. The main features of the CANDU (Canada deuterium-uranium) reactors are presented with an assessment concerning their suitability for energy supplies and developing programs. The main differences between the CANDU and PWR (pressurized water reactor) are highlighted.
