ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Operations & Power
Members focus on the dissemination of knowledge and information in the area of power reactors with particular application to the production of electric power and process heat. The division sponsors meetings on the coverage of applied nuclear science and engineering as related to power plants, non-power reactors, and other nuclear facilities. It encourages and assists with the dissemination of knowledge pertinent to the safe and efficient operation of nuclear facilities through professional staff development, information exchange, and supporting the generation of viable solutions to current issues.

The dissolution of the corrosion products of metals in deionized water at 38°C (100°F) is discussed. Copper, tungsten, cadmium, and Mallory-1000 give soluble corrosion products. Mention is made of 304 stainless steel, 1100 aluminum, titanium, tantalum, silver, and boron steel, all of which showed no soluble corrosion products. The significance of soluble corrosion products in reactor cooling water is discussed. Data were. obtained by chemical analyses of the water rather than from physical measurement of the test specimen.
