Development of new containment tents for rapid worker evacuation from the workspace in emergencies at plutonium fuel handling facilities

Shibanuma, Tomohiro; Hirano, Hiroshi*; Kimura, Yasuhisa; Aita, Takahiro; Yoshida, Masato; Nagai, Yuya; Kitamura, Akihiro

Hoken Butsuri (Internet), 58(2), p.91 - 98, 2023/08

We developed new containment tents that are more easily assembled and effectively functioned, by improving and refurbishing the shortcomings of the conventional tents. The new tents have been already tested in the real airborne contamination situation occurred at the plutonium fuel fabricating facility. The tents appropriately functioned for intended use but other shortcomings emerged and therefore we had modified the structure of the tents further.

Consideration of a quick exit from plastic tents in an event of emergency while working with air-fed suits: Evaluation of applicability of plastic enclosure tents for body decontamination

Asakawa, Jun; Hirano, Hiroshi*; Nagai, Yuya; Aita, Takahiro; Shibanuma, Tomohiro; Kimura, Yasuhisa

Hoken Butsuri (Internet), 57(2), p.93 - 101, 2022/09

In the dismantling work of glove boxes (GBs) contaminated with radioactive materials at the nuclear fuel facilities, plastic tents are constructed around the entire GBs, and workers putting on air-fed suits (AFS) (hereinafter referred to as AFS worker) dismantle the GBs and interior equipment by using cutting tools. If an AFS worker suddenly feels sick during the work and the worker is unable to move independently, it will be necessary to exit in the shortest time from the viewpoint of respecting human life. In this case, a lot of radioactive materials may be brought into the contamination control room, thus the room and the equipment of the workers may be contaminated. Consequently, until the decontamination work is completed, the other AFS workers will have to put on AFS and wait for long time, which puts a strain on the workers. In this report, the plastic enclosure tents for body decontamination developed in JAEA were used as a new contamination control room replaced the contaminated one, and the procedure to quickly exit the remaining AFS workers was proposed. As a result, we confirmed that it was possible to greatly reduce the waiting time of the other AFS workers who is forced to wait in the dismantling area.

Development of plastic enclosure tents for body contamination

The newly developed Plastic enclosure tents have reliable airtightness and can be set up in a short time with the small number of persons. Also, in order to prevent the spread of contamination, the exhaust device secures the internal airflow line, and the radiation management device measures the concentration of radioactive materials in the air are in real time. Furthermore, by setting up a multiple of evacuation routes, the decontamination time is shortened even when there are many contaminated persons. Therefore, it is possible to quickly evacuate the contaminated person by having both radiation safety and setting up that can quickly respond to a large-scale body contamination accident.

Development of radiation resistant rubber for accelerator equipment

Takayanagi, Tomohiro; Shibanuma, Yoshihiro*; Hofuku, Yuji*

no journal, , 

There is an area where a high radiation environment of 1 MGy per year at J-PARC. The device is required to have radiation resistance and the main parts are made of metal material, but the gasket etc. are made of rubber. However, the surface of EPDM rubber, which is known as radiation-resistant rubber, softens when irradiated with several MGy. Various sub-materials were selected from EPDM as raw materials, and samples in which the blending of the plasticizer was changed were prepared. The sample prepared with barium sulfate did not undergo surface softening such as hydrolysis or bleeding even after irradiation with 5 MGy. We report 11 kinds of rubber materials and evaluation results after gamma ray irradiation.

Measurement and calculation analysis of shielding material's performance for MOX containing americium

Okada, Toyofumi; Shibanuma, Tomohiro; Honda, Fumiya; Komeno, Akira; Kikuno, Hiroshi

no journal, , 

$$^{241}$$Am is generated by beta-decay of $$^{241}$$Pu. In the case of treating MOX, it is important for shielding about 60keV gamma-ray emitted by $$^{241}$$Am. Also getting dose rate data of MOX containing $$^{241}$$Am is valuable. In this work, we measured gamma-ray dose rate from MOX containing $$^{241}$$Am by changing thickness of shielding materials and range between MOX and measuring instruments. Also we confirmed that calculating analysis is useful for evaluation of shielding material's performance.
