Abstract

It was an idea to develop a system to remove the contaminated hot particulate to make clean nuclear research facilities to the clear visibility for researcher. In order to clean micron and sub micron size particulates from used PFC solution as a decontamination tool. Since PFC solution is very expensive so it was a high recommendation to develop the some filtration equipment to purify PFC for next decontamination process, in additionally, reduce the secondary waste. However, we developed an easy and economic filter system to purify the PFC solution. The major advantage of the process operates in closed loop under near ambient conditions, thus minimizing the potential for fugitive TRU emissions and reduces the secondary waste. This has very significant safety and cost impacts. Here we proposed the two types PFC filter systems.
