Radionuclide traps for sodium-cooled fast reactors–A review
In sodium-cooled fast reactors, the radioactivity resulting from transport of activated corrosion products such as 54Mn, 60Co and 58Co and fission products such as 137Cs (in the event of fuel pin failure) causes constraints on access for maintenance of primary loop components. In addition, the activity builds on components that generate large volumes of highly radioactive liquid effluents during the decontamination of the primary components. Incorporation of a radionuclide trap using a suitable trap material would reduce the activity buildup in primary components. Based on the studies carried out in Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR), India, an in-core radionuclide trap for 137Cs and a capsule sub-assembly to trap 54Mn were designed and fabricated. This work presents a review of the development of radionuclide traps for the chosen activated corrosion product and fission product for fast reactors.
