Materials and Water Chemistry for Supercritical Water-cooled Reactors is unique in that it brings together materials and water chemistry, their interrelationship, the historical perspective and their application to SCWR conceptual design. Written by world's leading experts, all active in the area of materials and chemistry R & D in support of GEN IV SCWR, this book presents for the first time a comprehensive reference on these topics, and in particular, how these data relate to the SCWR design itself. This book is an essential text for researchers in the areas of supercritical water-cooled reactor materials and chemistry, working in industry or academia. It will also give newcomers to the field a survey of all of the available literature and a clear understanding of how these studies relate to the design of the SCWR concept. The material presented is at a specialist's level in materials or corrosion science, or in water chemistry of power plants.

"A review of the most up-to-date techniques for determinations of metals in natural waters and riverine sediments: Includes all of the methods currently available to assess metals in water, sediments and soils -- Covers metals in surface groundwater as well as mineral waters -- Summarizes the strengths, weakness and precautions of different methods and includes a table summarizing the methods with reference citations. ... provides a completely up-to-date, analytic overview of the various methods available for examining metals, and serves as a manual to determine metal concentrations in different media such as natural waters, wastewaters, sediments and soils. The book begins with a discussion of sampling techniques and preservation, and then covers metals in rivers, surface groundwater, and mineral waters, as well as metals in aqueous precipitation. It concludes with detailed information on how to analyze metals in sediments. With its coverage of various procedures and techniques to be used in a variety of situations, [this book] provides a solid foundation for informed action to be taken by environmental interest groups and regulators and a starting point for further study by graduate students, professionals, and researchers."--Back cover.
