A container for a liquid radioactive and/or fissionable substance includes an outer container. An inner container is disposed in said outer container for receiving the substance. The inner container includes a primary container and a separate, closed secondary container having upper and lower ends. The primary container has an upper end protruding beyond said upper end of said secondary container and a lower end protruding beyond said lower end of said secondary container in longitudinal direction. A first connecting tube leads continuously downward in a direction from said lower end of said secondary container toward said lower end of said primary container. A second connecting tube leads continuously upward from said upper end of said secondary container in a direction toward said upper end of said primary container. The outer container has a fill chamber disposed therein for filling with heat-conducting filler.

Container, in particular for a radioactive substance

Container, especially for radioactive substances such as radioactive liquids, with an inner container for receiving these substances and an outer container, in which the inner container and thermal insulation between the inner and outer container are located. The inner container is associated with a cooling tube within the outer container which tube contains a coolant that can be circulated. A heat discharge tube likewise containing the coolant that can be circulated is arranged at the outer container. The cooling tube and the heat discharge tube are in communication with each other via connecting lines at both tube ends.
