Containment Following a Core Dispersion Criticality (Consequence Limiters)

After a core dispersion accident, it would still be necessary to contain the fission gas and any plutonium in the system as far as possible (see also Sections 5.5 and 5.6.2). The following methods might be used: radial blast shielding, shock attenuation volumes, sodium hammer suppressor plate, head hold-down system, missile barriers, splash plates to agglomerate so­dium sprays, aerosol settling devices, filtration, pressure suppression systems, and containment barriers.
