GEH Chemical Effects Testing Update October 24, 2007

2 October 24, 2007 Licensees Supported by GE for Chemical Effects Evaluation Module - CDI Low Testing Complete Diablo Canyon 1 & 2 Integrated 30-day High Testing Planned Q4 2007 / Q1 2008 Waterford 3 Integrated 30-day High Testing Planned Q4 2007 / Q1 2008 Vogtle 1 & 2 Module - CDI Low Testing Planned Q4 2007 Fort Calhoun Module - CDI Low Testing Planned Q4 2007 Farley 1 & 2 Chemical Effects Test Type Relative Fiber Loading Status Domestic PWRs

3 October 24, 2007 Chemical Effects Testing Precipitant Reduction

  • Alion is conducting bench-top chemical effects formation tests to investigate reduction of the WCAP-16785 precipitant source term.
  • Results of bench top testing will be used as input to module chemical effects testing at CDI in 4th Quarter, 2007.

4 October 24, 2007 Chemical Effects Testing Module/Large Scale

  • For strainer installations with relatively low fiber loads, GE performs large scale head loss testing using a test strainer module with particulate and fiber debris loads and WCAP-16785 chemical precipitants prepared at the test site (CDI).
  • Test results are used to determine plant strainer maximum debris and chemical effect head loss.
  • Module chemical effects testing will be performed for Fort Calhoun Station and Farley Units 1 & 2.
  • Module chemical effects testing is complete for Diablo Canyon; results were presented in the August GSI-191 meeting.

5 October 24, 2007 Chemical Effects Testing Long-Term Testing

  • For strainer installations with higher fiber loads, Alion will perform integrated 30-day chemical effects formation and head loss tests using plant specific debris loads, containment sump chemistry and post-LOCA temperature profile.
  • Integrated 30-day test to be performed for Waterford Unit 3 and Vogtle Units 1 & 2.
  • Results will be applied to module head loss test data to determine plant debris and chemical effect head loss.
