Swiss nuclear power and the case for long-term operation
Designed for 40 years but built to last far longer, Switzerland’s nuclear power plants have all entered long-term operation. Yet age alone says little about safety or performance. Through continuous upgrades, strict regulatory oversight, and extensive aging management, the country’s reactors are being prepared for decades of continued operation, in line with international practice.

A laboratory handling tritium requires a large variety of procedures for the assay of tritium concentrations over a very wide range (10−9 Ci/m3a to 106 Ci/m3). The measurement of tritium can be conveniently categorized into four levels from very low concentrations to very high concentrations (up to 100% T2). This paper will describe in detail the monitoring and analytical procedures used, as well as operational experience with the various equipment, in the CRNL Tritium Laboratory.a1 Ci = 37 GBq
