Nuclear air cleaning R and D programs in Canada
Description
All CANDU reactor generating stations are equipped with various gas treatment systems. The off-gas management system, the reactor ventilation system (or containment exhaust system), and the heavy water vapor recovery system reduce gaseous radioactive emissions during normal station operation whereas the emergency filtered air discharge system is designed for post-accident containment clean-up. The paper discusses the following research programs studying gaseous radionuclides in Canadian facilities: carbon-14 research and development program; tritium research and development program; iodine research and development program; aerosol research program; noble gases research and development program
