Deploying Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) in newly-built nuclear power plants

Abstract

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) evolution made IIOT deployable in nuclear power plants for remote access and monitoring operations. The deployment will be technically effective and economical when deployed during the construction of the NPP than on existing NPPs. Most existing NPPs were constructed prior to the digitalization era, so they do not provide the data visibility IOT needs to work. Deployment of IOT sensors at the design and construction stage will supply the operating system with raw data transmitted to the monitoring system for necessary predictions in real-time.
