Abstract: Accelerator Driving System (ADS) is a new device for cleaning energy. A high intensity, high power proton beam provided by accelerators is used to drive a sub critical nuclear reactor. It is safe, reliable and can produce less nuclear waste, and also can be used to treat the nuclear waste from the classical reactor. An Energy Amplifier (EA), which is composed of three cyclotrons, is one type of ADS. It will be used to produce 14.4 MW proton beam (12 mA, 1.2 GeV) and to operate a 1 500 MW nuclear reactor.
