核电厂流出物排放控制值研究

Abstract

Abstract: Emission control plays a key role in environmental radiation protection and effluent management for the operator of nuclear power plants (NPPs) and the authorities. In this paper, the effluent emission levels of pressurized water reactor (PWR) NPPs at home and abroad, the contain rate of the emission control value stipulated in GB 6249—2011 were investigated for the reported release amount, and the regulated values were compared with that in France. It was shown that, except for ³H and ¹⁴C in the effluent, the existing regulatedemission limits could basically contain the statistical emissions of foreign nuclear power plants with a much large controllable margin. Under the current effluent emission management level, a suitable, and much controllable margin could be used for optimization for the limits except for ³H and ¹⁴C.

Key words: nuclear power plant, effluent release, emission limits, environmental radiation protection
