Abstract
A nuclear reactor having a chemical decontamination system is provided in which every piece of decontamination equipment which processes radioactive materials is located within the containment chamber of the nuclear reactor. This decontamination system therefore presents advantageous safety benefits over an outside of containment system in the unlikely event of a leak of radioactive materials from the decontamination system.
