The Determination of Impurities in Helium Used for Reactor Cooling via GC/PDHID

Original language description

he growing world energy demand has led to the need to find sustainable energy sources with a low environmental impact. Nuclear energy can be considered a carbon free with long term sustainability energy generation system. In order to be able to offer efficient, economic, safe, with low radioactive waste and environmental impact energy production focus has been given to the development of advanced nuclear systems called Generation IV. Among the Generation IV nuclear systems VHTR which uses helium as coolant has received a great deal of attention. One of the key issues in this technology is the level of impurities in helium coolant. In this paper the purity of helium coolant for a HTHL as part of the infrastructure of gas cooled reactors in the Czech Republic was determined. The used analytical method was gas chromatography with pulsed discharge helium ionization detector (GC/PDHID). The PDHID is a universal, non-destructive and very sensitive detector. The analysed compounds in this paper are H2, CO, CO2, CH4, N2 and O2.
