- construction started in June 1970 and was completed in December 1974[1]
- water and beryllium moderated, ligth water cooled pool reactor[2]
- nominal power: 30 MW[2]
- used to use highly enriched Uranium of 80% U235 but has been converted tu usage of 36%HEU in 1999
- For minimizing the danger of proliferation plans had been made to converte the reactor further to use Ligthly Enriched Uranium (LEU).
- In 2005 aproximatly 39 kg of highly HEU were transferd tu russia. This occured among the "Global treat reduction initatve", a treatment between russia and the unitet states wich subsequently supports the removal or disposal of excess HEU and other and radiological materials from civilian sites worldwide.
- In september 2009 Poland and russia signed a contarct to export spent nuclear fuel to russia to bee prosessed at the majak plant.
