Desorption of water by charcoal. Project DRAGON

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4115270
Regeneration facilities for the charcoal in the main fission product delay units have to he provided because of the possibility that the water content might rise above an acceptable level and thereby shorten the delay time of the fission gases Xenon and Krypton. Therefore, the influence of different parameters on the desorption of water from charcoal has been investigated. As a result the regeneration time for the Dragon delay units can be calculated.
