 Filtered Containment Venting System

A Filtered Containment Venting System (FCVS) is a safety feature used in nuclear power plants to manage the release of radioactive gases and aerosols in the event of a loss of coolant accident (LOCA) or other severe accident scenarios. The main purpose of the FCVS is to protect the environment and public health by filtering radioactive materials before they are released into the atmosphere.
