Abstract: Particle size distribution measurement of gaseous effluents from Qinshan nuclear power plant was carried out. The results showed that the Activity Median Aerodynamic Diameter (AMAD) for majority of the aerosol particles was below 1μm, while the total aerosol concentration varied with different type of the units. The work provides references for evaluating the effectiveness of the system of sampling for gaseous effluents in the stacks at nuclear power plant.

Key words: nuclear power plant, gaseous effluents, aerosol, particle size distribution
