Application
Passive Auto-Catalytic Recombiner(PAR) is used to protect containment building from hydrogen explosion by eliminating hydrogen that might be generated during Design Basis Accident(DBA) and Severe Accident(SA).
Characteristics
- Honeycomb shape catalysts leading to higher hydrogen removal rate
- Roof with eaves to avoid the inflow from LOCA(Loss Of Coolant Accident) spray.
- Simplified installation and removal of catalysts without disassembling and reassembling.
- Standardized supports for simplified and easy installation at site.
- Outflow guide plate to lower flow resistance.
