Preparation of anoxic corrosion test of canister materials in a deep borehole

It is very important to verify the corrosion behavior of a disposal canister in a regional deep geologic environment. KAERI launched long term corrosion test cells in Oct. 2010 at KURT site. The condition. The KAERI anoxic corrosion test is recently planned in one of old exploration boreholes near KURT site like MACOTE. The installation of corrosion module is planned in 2019 after several demonstration tests. And themodule will be extracted after 1-2-3-4-7-10 years respectively. Actually, the extraction process is more important than the installation process because the extracted module should be kept not to contact withoxygen. Thus the design of a transportation bag for the carrying and a glove box for the dismantling of the module is necessary after the module launching in 2019.
