Abstract |
Sources of radioactivity from the normal operation of an LMFBR and the transport of this radioactivity, were studied. Reliance was placed predominantly on published results although some new calculations were made where needed. Results were normalized to a 1000 MWe LMFBR and compared to values for a 1000 MWe LWR. The radioactivity sources studied included plutonium and other transuranium elements, fission products, tritium, corrosion products, and tramp fuel. Radionuclide transport studies included fission products and fuel from failed fuel, behavior of radioactivity in sodium and cold traps, and operation of gaseous radwaste systems. |
