Core meltdown retention basin

scroll

Construction in a reactor to collect and cool the molten reactor core. The reactor pit is designed to collect the liquid molten metal mass generated during a core meltdown accident and guided by gravity to a lower-level area made of refractory material over which the molten mass spreads and the energy contained in it can be removed by cooling and the molten mass solidifies.
