Tritium is formed by neutrons captured from deuterium. If left to accumulate, tritium oxide will become a hazard to the operating staff and public. The primary purpose of a Tritium Removal Facility (TRF) is to reduce tritium concentration in a heavy water moderator. In Korea, operation of a TRF comm...
