The Plan outlines seven primary tasks:
Infrastructure Upgrades: Promote the construction of medical isotope production reactors and optimize existing facilities to fulfill both research and production functions.
Key Technology Advancement: Strengthen foundational research, develop new drugs, radiotherapy technologies, and high-end equipment, and explore the potential applications of nuclear technology in emerging industries like quantum computing, energy storage, and brain-computer interfaces.
Isotope Supply : Accelerate the large-scale production of medical isotopes like Molybdenum-99 and Iodine-125, advance industrial isotope research for isotopes such as Scandium-47 and Iridium-192, and ensure an independent supply of critical isotope products.
Industry Application Promotion: Expand nuclear technology applications in industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, medicine, environmental protection, and public safety to support industrial transformation and upgrading.
New Application Scenarios: Drive the integration of nuclear technology with biotechnology, new materials, and advanced manufacturing, and develop a cross-disciplinary "Nuclear Technology +" platform.
Industrial Cluster Development: Foster collaboration along the industry chain, support the growth of industrial clusters and leading enterprises.
Standards System Establishment: Establish and improve the standard system for nuclear technology applications, promoting mutual recognition of standards domestically and internationally.
The Plan outlines various supportive measures to boost industry growth:
Financial and Tax Support: Provide support to nuclear technology application enterprises through national guiding funds and innovative financial instruments.
Industry Regulation Optimization: Streamline approval processes for radioactive drugs and nuclear medical equipment, and strengthen radiation safety and environmental protection regulations.
Basic Services and Talent Development: Promote the construction of public service platforms for testing, inspection, and validation, and support collaborative talent cultivation between universities and enterprises.
Industry Promotion: Enhance public science education and international promotion to aid the global expansion of China's nuclear technology application industry.
