Zusammenfassung:A post-accident fission product removal system (100) may include an air mover (104), a filter assembly (106), and/or an ionization chamber (116). The air mover (104) may be configured to move contaminated air (102) through the filter assembly (106) to produce filtered air (115). The ionization chamber (116) may be connected to the filter assembly (106). The ionization chamber (116) may include an anode (118) and a cathode (120). The ionization chamber (116) may be configured to receive the filtered air (115) from the filter assembly (106) and to ionize and capture radioisotopes from the filtered air (115) to produce clean air (124).
