The purity control of high temperature liquid sodium is very important just like that of LWR. Sodium oxide and/or hydrogen gas are easily generated by the reaction of liquid sodium with trace amount of oxygen and/or moisture leaked from the exterior. It is required to understand and acquire the removal mechanism of sodium oxides and other impurities in the coolant system for avoiding long-term shutdown caused by excessive level of impurity. Therefore, it is very important to monitor oxides concentration and remove these oxides. Accordingly, the purpose of this study provides the basic date for design and operation method sodium purification system.
