Title: Test Pile Reactivity Loss Due to Trichloroethylene

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/780115· OSTI ID:780115

The presence of trichloroethylene in the test pile caused a continual decrease in pile reactivity. A system which removed, purified, and returned 12,000 cfh helium to the pile has held contamination to a negligible level and has permitted normal pile operation.
