A comprehensive course on tritium and the tritium-CANDU relationship. Participants walk away from the course with a solid understanding of how tritium is generated, controlled and released from a CANDU plant. The ubiquitous presence of water in nature insures the dispersion of tritium in the environment; thus, the hazards of tritium (public, worker) are communicated. Participants gain practical knowledge in the area of tritium monitoring and contamination control. Attendees are able to define what materials are appropriate for tritium service and the difficulties associated with disposal of tritiated waste.
