Introduction to Boiling Water Reactor Chemistry

VOLUME I
This report is the first volume out of two focusing on BWR chemistry. A review and discussion of the BWR chemistry fundamentals that are necessary to understand and describe the requirements of the BWR water specifications is provided in this volume. This discussion includes the basics of water radiolysis, the dynamic process that establishes the concentration of oxygen and hydrogen gas in the reactor water, the consequences of tramp uranium and leaking fuel rods on chemistry and other relevant topics.
