Tanks for radioactive waste storage

Creators

Description

Object: To prevent radioactive liquid waste from overflowing out of a pit when trouble of tank breakage occurs, to control the size of trouble and to secure safety. Structure: The tank has its lower portion received into a pit formed in floor and its upper portion exposed above the floor and supported by supporting members. The depth of the pit is so designed that when trouble of tank breakage occurs, the leaked radioactive liquid waste will not be overflown out of the pit, and the clearance between the pit and the tank is designed so that a volatile surface area of radioactive gases generated from the leaked liquid waste may be made sufficiently smaller by appraisal of trouble. (Kamimura, M.)
