<p>A fuel element storage pond or pool for nuclear plants has a horizontal shielding plate extending from the top of the pond wall out over the surface of the water. The free edge of this plate may have a further, downward projecting plate to provide additional shielding. In nuclear storage plants for fuel elements, whether in a power plant or in a processing plant. Since the radiation at the top of the pond walls affects personnel working at the top, the use of an additional shielding plate in this region considerably reduces the effective radiation level.</p> |
