Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0383153A1] The invention relates to a device on containers (1) containing radioactive waste for reducing the internal pressure caused by hydrogen generated in the waste and the release of hydrogen from the container (1). The device comprises a catalyst (7) which is inserted in a perforation (2) in the wall of the container (1) or its lid (3) and which is installed with a predetermined throughput from the interior of the container to the outside for the oxidation of hydrogen with oxygen to form water at the storage temperature. <IMAGE>
