An arrangement was built to study experimentally the degree of radioactive contamination which may occur in and around a radioisotope institute when a fire breaks out in the area. The arrangement consists of a coal-gas burning chamber, a radioisotope-burning furnace, a watershower-cooler, a filter box, and a turbofan. Radioisotopes can be burnt with combustibie substances under conditions similar to a fire in the radioisotope-burning furnace of the arrangement. The ratio of the part of the active substance in the furnace that flows upward as gas to the part that remains as ash in the furnace can be determined by means of the burning experiment using the furnace. As it is supposed that the gas discharged from the furnace during combustion has considerabie radioactivity, a special method was adopted to remove radioactive dusts and mists from the gas and to discharge them safely into the atmosphere.
