abstract = {The present report describes safety aspects of catalytic
recombiners. These devices are used for hydrogen removal
from containments of Light Water Reactors. Hydrogen is
generated after the reaction of steam with the zirconium of
the cladding of the fuel rods in case of the cooling failure
of the core. The burnable mixture of hydrogen and air may
flagrate or detonate. In a recombiner hydrogen is converted
an catalytic surfaces in an exothermic reaction. For
developing effective recombiner systems a lot of theoretical
and experimental work has been carried out. During the
experiments undesirable ignitions were observed, which must
be avoided in any case with respect of safety reasons. There
is a lack of detailed analyses concerning the position of
ignition sources, ignition temperatures etc.. Despite of
these results at present the german reactors are retrofitted
with catalytic recombiners. In the Research Centre Jülich
experiments are carried out in order to study the reaction
kinetics and to determine the reaction temperatures of the
catalytic elements. Already at low hydrogen concentration
almost ignition temperature is observed. Ignitions are
likely to occur at elevated concentrations. Proposals to
avoid ignition and to improve recombination devices are
made},
