The multiple hydroclone system removed l83 grams of corrosion product solids in l814 hours of operation during reactor run 2l. The low removal rate was attributed to plugging of multiclone feed ports that presumably occurred during the latter part of run 20. After modifications to the reactor core and removal of the multiclone unit at the end of run 21, the reactor core was backflushed with the flow direction in the core loop reversed. During this period, the single hydroclone removed 205 grams of solids in 10.5 hours of operation. (auth)
