RADIATION MONITORING SYSTEM FOR ADVANCED SPENT FUEL CONDITIONING PROCESS FACITLITY

The $ACP^1$ is under development for effective management of spent fuel by converting $UO_2$ into U-metal. For demonstration of this process, $\alpha-\gamma$ type new hotcell was built in the $IMEF^2$ basement. To secure against radiation hazard, this facility needs radiation monitoring system which will observe the entire operating area before the hotcell and service area at back of it. This system consists of 7 parts; Area Monitor for $\gamma$-ray, Room Air Monitor for particulate and iodine in both area, Hotcell Monitor for hotcell inside high radiation and rear door interlock, Duct Monitor for particulate of outlet ventilation, Iodine Monitor for iodine of outlet duct, CCTV for watching workers and material movement, Server for management of whole monitoring system. After installation and test of this, radiation monitoring system will be expected to assist the successful ACP demonstration.
