RCNET ACAD 08-006 Crosswalk: 4.2 Chemistry Technicians - Systems

Program Description:
This material was published by the Regional Center for Nuclear Education and Training (RCNET) as part of a comprehensive crosswalk that links objectives of ACAD 08-006 with GP Strategies ABC Material, NUCP Surveyed Material, NANTeL resources, EPRI resources, web resources, and published material available to all RCNET partners. These accredited utility training programs are based off training and qualification guidelines (ACADs) published by the National Academy for Nuclear Training. 

ACAD 08-006 is the Uniform Curriculum Guide for Nuclear Power Plant Technician, Maintenance, and Nonlicensed Operations Personnel Associate Degree Programs and includes five main curriculum areas: Core Curriculum, Discipline-Specific Curriculum for Nonlicensed Operators, Discipline-Specific Curriculum for Radiological Protection Technicians, Discipline-Specific for Chemistry Technicians, and Discipline Specific for Maintenance Personnel. 

Contents: 
This section of Discipline-Specific Curriculum for Chemistry Technicians (ACAD 08-006 4.5) covers "...perform[ing] specified functions on plant systems relative to the chemistry technician job." 

Documents associated with ACAD 08-006 4.2 include 9 documents and 19 PowerPoint presentations. 

The material covers, more specifically: auxiliary feedwater (AFW) system; reactor recirculation system; reactor water cleanup (RWCU) system; suppression pool; offgas system; pressurized water reactor (PWR) systems; boiler water reactor systems; nuclear plant systems; chemicals added to the system; and more. 

For orientation purposes AuxiliaryFeedwaterSystem.pdf is included as a separate attachment and offers a sample of the type of material included in this curriculum. 

Below is a list of the files contained within the .zip attachment. The size of each file is included in parenthesis.
