Abstract
A water quality control method for a nuclear power plant comprising the steps of maintaining the iron concentration in the feed water below 0.05 ppb by increasing iron removing rate at a condensed water purifying loop, shifting the pH of the reactor water below a pH of 6.8 determined at a room temperature by injecting carbon dioxide gas in the primary cooling system and further optionally reducing the dissolved oxygen concentration in the reactor water below 20 ppb by injecting hydrogen gas into the primary cooling system, whereby .sup.60 Co ion concentration in the primary cooling system is maintained low for a long interval.
