CONTAMINATION AND DECONTAMINATION OF LOW TEMPERATURE, WATER-COOLED REACTORS. PART IV. DEPOSITION OF RADIONUCLIDES FROM REACTOR COOLANT
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4028699
The deposition of radioactivity from coolant on stainless steel and aluminum in the production reactors at the Savannah River Plant was investigated at exposure temperatures of 30 and 85 deg C. Data from decontamination tests were used to aid in developing the mechanisms of deposition. The buildup of activity on stainless steel was associated with the deposition of a crud film that was comprised principally of alumina. The buildup of activity on aluminum was associated with the in situ development of the corrosion film on the metal surface and, therefore, was related to the corrosion rate of aluminum. (auth)
