ANSI/N45-8 nuclear gas systems treatment standards

From twelfth AEC air cleaning conference; Oak Ridge, Tennessee, USA (28 Aug 1972). In proceedings of the twelfth AEC air cleaning conference. An ANSI ad-hoc subcommittee has been formed to develop standards which users, suppliers, and AEC can utilize to assure the maintaining of high efficiency nuclear gas treatment systems. This in turn should expedite the plant licensing. The scope of the subcommittee is: To develop standards. standard specifications, and method- of-test standards for the design, fabrication, installation, testing, and maintenance of very high efficiency gas treatment systems for the prevention of airborne release of radioactivity from nuclear power plants. The standards will cover the testability, maintainability, and leak and structural integrity of components and assemblies necessary to ensure performance and reliability, in addition to test methods, acceptance criteria, and quality assurance provisions needed to prove that these objectives have been met.
