The containments for the multi-unit nuclear power stations in Canada are connected to a common vacuum building. |
Mr. Koide holds that the nuclear fuel at the three reactors probably melted through containments and into the ground, raising the possibility of contaminated groundwater. |
The safety of the containments of both tank sizes is ensured through pre-determined minimum wall thicknesses dependent on the tank material. |
The RTV900 also has a hydraulic tank filter and a transmission filter to further remove containments. |
Double-walled tanks, sumps or containments whose walls on the stored product side are resistant to permeation from particles which can generate potentially explosive vapours. |
Mr. Nishiyama stressed that unlike at Chernobyl, where the reactor itself exploded and fire fanned the release of radioactive material, the containments at the four troubled reactors at Fukushima remained intact over all. |
