Tritium Introduction from a Cooling Water Reservoir in Sources of Drinking Water Supply by Filtration Through Deep Layers of Underlying Rocks

摘要

This paper describes the results of estimation of drinking water quality by the concentration of tritium being introduced into the natural environment as a result of the long operation of the Kurchatov Belo-yarskaya atomic power station (BAPS). Operation of the atomic station started in 1964. The first stage comprised two energy blocks, the resources of which are completely exhausted by now. The third block on rapid neutrons was launched in 1980 and is still operating.
