Description

New filter designs for nuclear power plants and reprocessing plants are discussed. For nuclear power plants the following are discussed: prefilter; drum filter; high temperature filters; electrostatic precipitators; radioiodine filters. An off-gas section for dissolver off-gas cleaning in a reprocessing plant is being tested at the Karlsruhe Nuclear Research Center. The following specific tests are discussed: head end test rig: PASSAT dissolver off-gas filter; reduction of oxygen and nitrogen oxides; precleaning device; and krypton low temperature rectification. Features of a backup solution for dissolver off-gas cleaning are also mentioned
