The routes tritium could take, all engineered against.

Glossary of Fusion & Plasma TermsUpdated 2026-08-11

Tritium could in principle escape via permeation, leaks or effluent water; each pathway is engineered against with barriers, detritiation and monitoring. Mapping and closing them is core to tritium safety.
