Abstract

Abstract Tritium profiles on a TFTR graphite tile exposed to D–D plasmas and a JET graphite tile from the first tritium campaigns were examined by full combustion, thermogravimetry and thermal desorption. Combustion measurements revealed that >98.9% of the tritium is trapped in a layer 95% under a stream of moist air at about 400°C. A large fraction of tritium can be removed from the tile surface with adhesive tape.
