Atomic–Hydrogen Energy and Tritium Purification of NPP Discharges Based on WWER Generation 3+ Reactors

The operation of nuclear power plants routinely leads to the release of waste water flows contaminated with radioactive isotopes, tritium in particular.

Description
Summary:The operation of nuclear power plants routinely leads to the release of waste water flows contaminated with radioactive isotopes, tritium in particular. In order to prevent its entry into the environment, it is proposed to use a catalytic process of chemical isotope exchange in the water–hydrogen system. The novelty of the work lies in the combination of energy production facilities and commercial hydrogen into a single complex, which simultaneously allows the ecological problem of environmental protection to be solved. The proposal corresponds to the concept of atomic–hydrogen energy and is entirely based on the use of domestic developments.
