Device for recovering radioactive waste; Dispositif de recuperation d'effluents radioactifs

Abstract

The previous system which consisted in the use of metallic reservoirs placed in a concrete-lined pit gave rise to certain incidents due to corrosion or overflowing followed by contamination with serious consequences. The new system presented consists essentially of a standard 3 m{sup 3} reservoir of stainless steel which is fixed in a concrete-lined well, is tubed with stainless steel. Each reservoir has a standard lid on which are placed all the accessory devices, themselves standardized. The new reservoirs offer thus a great degree of security, and are interchangeable; the wells are easy to decontaminate and it is possible to work in a well without any danger of the personnel being irradiated by neighbouring reservoirs.
