Abstract

Six years of operation of the Armenian nuclear power plant (NPP) with a VVER-440 led to an increase in the contribution of radioactive corrosion products, in particular 6~ ~1~ end ~4Mn, to the total activity of the gas--air mixture discharged into the stack (Table I). According to the data for January-September, 1982, these radionnclides contributed 57% of the total activity of the long-lived aerosols discharged into the atmosphere, neglecting I~I. Consequently, the yearly emission of long-lived radioactive aerosols is due largely to radioactive corrosion products.
