A post-accident fission product removal system may include an air mover, a filter assembly, and/or an ionization chamber. The air mover may be configured to move contaminated air through the filter assembly to produce filtered air. The ionization chamber may be connected to the filter assembly. The ionization chamber may include an anode and a cathode. The ionization chamber may be configured to receive the filtered air from the filter assembly and to ionize and capture radioisotopes from the filtered air to produce clean air.

Post-accident fission product removal system and method of removing post-accident fission product

A method and apparatus for providing an alternative cooling system for the suppression pool of a Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) nuclear reactor. The cooling system is operated to cool the suppression pool in the event of a plant accident when normal plant electricity is not available for the conventional residual heat removal system and pumps. The cooling system may also be used to supplement the cooling of the suppression pool via the residual heat removal system. The cooling system is operated and controlled from a remote location, which is ideal during a plant emergency.
