Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4332299

A summary of the chemical decontamination of the WAPD-29 loop at MTR is presented. The decontamination procedure includes the use of an oxidizing- complexing solution to remove UO/sub 2/ and fission products, followed by a reducing-complexing solution to remove crud and associated acitivities. The over- all decontamination factor was about 50. After decontamination, stainless steel welds were examined for deleterious or corrosive effects of decontamination, and none were found. (J.R.D.)
