Xenon and iodine concentrations in the environs of the T and B Plant

Description: A report of seven stack emissions of I-131 at the T and B plants, detailing the relationship between cooling times and dilution factors for the safe emission of the isotope. From the stack sampling, personal exposure limits for an eight and nine hour day are calculated. The effect of atmospheric conditions appears to be negligible, although periods of atmospheric stagnation may have an effect on the I-131 concentration. Environmental effects are minimized by increasing the cooling times of the … more
