1 1 TEPCO’s Challenges for Occupational Exposure Reduction -Installation of Additional CF in Fukushima Daiichi NPP- Shunsuke HORI, Akira SUZUKI Tokyo Electric Power Company Nuclear Power Plant Management Department Radiation Protection Group ISOE International ALARA Symposium September 8-9, 2009, Aomori, JAPAN

2 2 Profile - Location Electricity sales by the 10 electric utilities

3 3 TEPCO’s Nuclear Power Plants 17 BWRs including 2 ABWRs (total capacity 17,308MWe) - 27% of generation capacity (FY 2008) Kashiwazaki-Kariwa NPP Fukushima-Daini NPP Fukushima-Daiichi NPP NPP

4 4 Contents Occupational Exposure in NPP Measures for Reduction of Collective Dose Quality of Feed Water after Installation of Additional CF in Fukushima Daiichi Unit 6 Collective Dose Estimation Secondary Effects by Reduction of CRUD Conclusions

5 5 Occupational Exposure in NPP (1/2) Collective Dose per Reactor in Nuclear Power Station (BWR) (2006 to 2008 Average)

6 6 Occupational Exposure in NPP (2/2) Annual Collective Dose Trend per Plant in Japan

7 7 Measures for Reduction of Collective Dose(1/4) Measures for Reduction of Collective Dose in PCV Improvement of (Ⅰ) Material (Ⅱ) Equipment or System (Ⅲ) Operation Radiation Level Reduction Reduction of Activated Corrosion Products Removal of Activated Corrosion Products Control of Activated Corrosion Products Attachment Optimization of Shield Control / Removal of CRUD Mechanical Decontamination ( Ⅲ ) Chemical Decontamination ( Ⅲ ) Electrochemical Polishing ( Ⅰ ) Pre-filming ( Ⅰ ) Ni/Fe Control ( Ⅲ ) Zinc Injection ( Ⅲ ) Temporary Shield ( Ⅲ ) Permanent Shield ( Ⅱ ) Change in Piping Design(Geometry / Location) ( Ⅱ ) Temperature- Controlled Shutdown( Ⅲ ) CF Volume Increase( Ⅱ ) Use of Low Cobalt Material( Ⅰ ) Use of Corrosion- Resistant Material ( Ⅰ ) Optimized use of CF,C/D and CUW( Ⅲ ) Oxygen Injection( Ⅱ )

8 8 Measures for Reduction of Collective Dose(2/4) Reactor Primary System ( BWR ) PLR RWCU Main Steam Line Feed Water Moisture Separator Sea Water Condensate Polisher System Heater Feed Water Pump Condenser LP-Turbine HP-Turbine Generator Oxygen Injection

10 10 Measures for Reduction of Collective Dose(4/4) CF(Condensate Pre-Filter) in Japan (BWR)

11 11 Quality of Feed Water Feed Water Iron Concentration Trend after CF Installation (Fukushima Daiichi Unit 6)

12 12 Collective Dose Estimation Collective Dose Estimation after additional CF Installation (Fukushima Daiichi Unit 6)

13 13 Secondary Effects by Reduction of CRUD ObjectEffectCost Saving Object Jet Pump Efficiency Improvement Electricity Cost Less Frequency of Cleaning Cleaning Cost C/D Resin Life Extension Replacement Cost Decommissioning Cost Less Frequency of ・ Backwashing ・ Regeneration Water Treatment Cost Chemical Treatment Cost Shutdown Faster Drop in Temperature High Operating Ratio

14 14 Conclusions We have successfully reduced the concentration of feed water iron in Fukushima Daiichi Unit 6 by the installation of additional CF. We’ll continue to try to reduce occupational exposures by every possible measures after cost performance evaluations.
