[Report on] Evaluation of the Iodine Vapor-Fission Gas Adsorption Traps for ORR-705 Capsule Experiment, GCPR Capsule Irradiation Program, December 23, 1958Location: Active:
Originating Office: Chemical Technology Division Finding Aids: Index to Central Files Memoranda, 1952-1959 Disposition AuthorityUnscheduled Series Description: This 1958 report is an evaluation of iodine vapor-fission gas adsorption traps for use in the Oak Ridge Gas-Cooled Power Reactor Capsule Irradiation Program. The traps, which consist of coal or charcoal filters, control leaking and limit releases of iodine vapor and other fission gases, such as krypton and xenon. The report evaluates atmospheric contamination resulting from releases of these fission products and contains charts, tables, and graphs. Radioactivity is reported in millirems/hour and microcuries/cubic centimeter. The report also indicates the total amount of curies released into the atmosphere.
