    摘要: The salt sampling system may be utilized to collect molten fuel salt samples from a molten salt reactor. The salt sampling system keeps the fuel salt isolated from the environment outside the molten salt reactor system, until the salt sampling system is utilized to collect the salt sample. The salt sampling system may utilize one or more isolation components to position a collection assembly within the reactor system to collect the salt sample, and upon removing the collection assembly from the reactor system, closing the one or more isolation components so that the reactor system is once again isolated. The salt sampling system may additionally utilize a purge gas system and a vacuum system to remove unwanted contaminants from the components in fluid connection within salt sampling system prior to inserting the collection assembly into the molten salt reactor system.

    摘要: An emission monitoring system for a venting system of a nuclear power plant is configured for low consumption of energy while having high reliability of measurement results. The emission monitoring system has a pressure relief line connected to a containment and contains a high-pressure section, a low-pressure section, and a sampling line, which, on the inlet side, opens into the low-pressure section of the pressure relief line and is guided from there to a functional path through which steam flows. An ejector containing a pump fluid connector, a suction connector and an outlet connector is provided. A pump fluid feed line has an inlet side opening into the high-pressure section of the pressure relief line and is guided from there to the ejector and connected to the pump fluid connector. A sample return line is guided from the functional path to the ejector and connected to the suction connector.

    摘要: An aseptic sampling system comprises sampler and interface assemblies. Each assembly comprises a housing defining separate sterile enclosures. An air lock provides aseptic joining of the enclosures within the sampler and interface assemblies, and a re-sealable liquid connection mechanism operates within the lock. The sampler and interface assemblies, when connected, form an outer protective surface comprising the housings of the sampler and interface assemblies, the protective surface providing a sterile internal enclosure and air lock and an air-tight barrier between outer non-sterile, and inner sterile, atmospheres. The connection mechanism, contained within the sterile enclosure, contains at least one liquid connector from each of the sampler and interface assemblies, configured such that at least one of the connectors moves across the enclosure and lock to connect with the other connector in the connection mechanism, without contacting internal surfaces within the lock, and the connectors can be re-sealed, disconnected and separated.
