Foam- And Film-forming Compositions And Technical Means For Accident-remediation And Disassembly Work On Nuclear Power Facilities

摘要

The experience gained with the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant shows that the first measure in liquidating a serious unanticipated accident is to extinguish numerous fires, as a rule, on the roofs of the damaged reactor and buildings next to the destroyed power-generating unit [1]. Volatile products of combustion in unanticipated accidents are extremely radioactive and can be spread over large distances. The conventional firefighting technique using standard foams to confine the products of combustion were found to be ineffective at Chernobyl [2].
