Plenary Lecture - a Special Radioelement Problem: ORNL Assistance to Three Mile Island in Handling Contaminated Air and Water

摘要

As the investigative work concerning the post-accident period comes to light, it is apparent that ORNL has played a significant role in the recovery of TMI. Work in the area of waste handling, analytical service, flowsheet development, and decontamination are all regarded as significant. Efforts in this specific area of assistance to TMI are really the results of the close working relationship between chemical engineers and analytical chemists. The two major areas of involvement, and the subject of this discussion, are contaminated air and water handling which resulted from the accident. (ERA citation 05:024083)
