Silica Quantification in Boiling Water Reactor Feedwater: Feasibility Study and Demonstration
In boiling water reactors that inject zinc into the reactor feedwater, the presence of silica is a concern because formation of zinc silicate can potentially increase corrosion of fuel cladding. Deposition rates on reactor surfaces cannot be determined due to a lack of feedwater silica data. In this study, researchers developed and demonstrated a model […]
