  2. 1. The chemistry of organic iodides under severe nuclear accident conditions in LWRs

    Author : Sabrina Tietze; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic iodides; Wet-filter system scrubber ; Chlorine; Volatile iodine source term; Severe nuclear accident; Cables; Sorption; Containment; Paint; Iodine; LWR; Radiolysis;

    Abstract : For many countries nuclear fission is an important part of their energy portfolio. However, a great concern is the occurrence of nuclear reactor accidents, which can result in the emission of radioactivity into the environment. READ MORE

  4. 2. Iodine-Metal Surface Interactions under Severe Accident Conditions in a Nuclear Power Plant

    Author : Henrik Glänneskog; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; containment; reactive metals; BWR; adsorption; iodine; radiolysis;

    Abstract : In the event of a severe nuclear reactor accident, iodine will be released from the fuel and eventually enter the containment. Radioactive iodine isotopes constitute both an acute and a long-term threat to humans, owing to its half-life and its accumulation in the thyroid gland. READ MORE

  5. 3. Mobilization and Management of Tellurium in Severe Accident Scenarios

    Author : Anna-Elina Pasi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nuclear; gamma irradiation; source term; severe accident; tellurium;

    Abstract : Safety is one of the highest priorities in any industry. In the nuclear industry, safety is in the essence since in case of a nuclear accident, the consequences can be long-lasting, hazardous, and devastating to the public, environment, and the industry. READ MORE

  6. 4. Transport and Containment Chemistry of Ruthenium under Severe Accident Conditions in a Nuclear Power Plant

    Author : Ivan Kajan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fission products; radiolysis; nuclear accident; containment; ruthenium tetroxide; ruthenium;

    Abstract : During a severe nuclear accident volatile elements and elements readily forming volatile compounds are the main concern regarding the release of radioactive material to the environment. As ruthenium is prone to form volatile oxides under severe nuclear accident conditions as well as having radiotoxic isotopes, it is one of the more important elements during such an accident.

  7. 5. Formation, partitioning and interactions of organic iodides under severe nuclear accident conditions

    Author : Sabrina Tietze; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Epoxy paint; Methyl iodide; Iodine source term; Organic iodides; Severe nuclear accidents;

    Abstract : During severe nuclear reactor accidents such as Chernobyl or Fukushima large amounts of radioactive iodine can be released in form of inorganic and organic iodine species into the environment. Volatile radioactive iodine species are harmful to human health when inhaled. READ MORE
