Description

French fast breeder nuclear power plant PHENIX stopped in July 2009. The secondary circuits are formed of 3 loops of sodium. The treatment of the residual sodium in the loops will be realized in 3 steps: additional draining, carbonation and rinse. Additional draining and preparation of carbonation is ongoing. The Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA) is the operator of PHENIX. Additional draining and preparation of carbonation is conducted by the CEA (PHENIX and decommissioning Department). (author)
