Potassium iodide

Radioactive gaseous iodine is one of the most important radionuclides whose release from nuclear facilities must be prevented. For this purpose, potassium iodide-based adsorbents are used in exhaust air purification and air monitoring systems of nuclear power plants and nuclear research facilities. These adsorbents consist of carrier materials treated with potassium iodide and can thus effectively bind radioactive iodine compounds, ensuring that no radioactive pollutants are released into the environment.
