Description

Tritium decontamination is one of the important problems for the safety of D-T fusion reactors. The experimental results showed that UV light combined with IR irradiation was effective in decontaminating tritium from metals and alloys. The desorption rate of 96% was achieved at 150degC. Desorption at the temperatures of 75degC to 150degC was enhanced further by replacing argon with dry air. The behavior of tritium sorption, thermal desorption and photo-desorption was investigated for varying metal surfaces. (author)
