North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

An integral part of the operation of a tritium-handling facility is the need to maintain a tritium accounting system which meets both operational and regulatory requirements. The Darlington Tritium Removal Facility processes heavy water to remove tritium for storage or sale. The Chalk River Tritium Laboratory is a general-purpose experimental facility, handling various quantities and specific activities of tritium in separate systems, including re-packaging of tritium from large metal-getter storage beds to smaller aliquots. Tritium accounting procedures, analytical techniques and operational experience gained to date in the operation of these tritium-handling facilities are described.
