Description

A 10 CFR 100 review required a utility to change the air flow capacity of its Auxiliary Building Exhaust Filter systems. Since there was not room to increase the size of the system, the system had to be rated at a higher air flow capacity. This changed the residence time of the air in the carbon bed from 1/4 second to 1/8 second. Carbon, to meet these new requirements, had to be tested in the new tech sec mode, and the new tech specs implemented. The results of the testing and the implementation showed that new carbon will meet the requirements, but that the carbon will have a very limited life
