A nondestructive technique was developed for evaluating carbon beds used in reactor containment applications. Freon-12 was used as a tracer to detect leak paths that would reduce the efficiency of carbon beds for removal of radioactive I/sub 2/ vapor. Leaks greater than 0.008% of the tothl flow were detected with an electron-capture-type instrument. The current method is suitable for testing dry carbon beds prior to field installation and at air velocities up to 20 ft/min. (auth
