Description

To investigate the relation between the maintenance of IX columns and the amount of C-14 release, we reviewed the operation records and chemical analysis data of Moderator and Moderator Cover Gas systems of all the four units of Wolsong NPPs, the domestic Pressurized Heavy Water Reactors. According to the result of the present surveys, it is suggested that the IX columns be changed at least every 80 days and not be re-used during the normal operations of reactors if they have been already used in the course of Gadolinium level control in the Moderator for the reactivity control before and after the reactor shutdown
