an inlet process line leading to the first container, the inlet process line including a double containment hose configured to route the nuclear wastewater to the first container; an outlet process line leading away from the first container, the outlet process line including a double containment hose configured to route the nuclear wastewater away from the first container; solids removal filters positioned in the first container, the solids removal filters being configured to remove suspended solids from the nuclear wastewater, the solids removal filters being configured to operate with one of the solids removal filters online while another one of the solids removal filters is on standby; ion exchange vessels positioned in the first container downstream from the solids removal filters and connected in series, the ion exchange vessels being configured to remove one or more radioactive contaminants from the nuclear wastewater; and an electronic controller communicatively linked to a leak detector positioned to detect the nuclear wastewater in the sump; wherein each of the ion exchange vessels is positioned adjacent to one of the doors in the sidewalls of the first container to provide forklift access to each of the ion exchange vessels.
摘要:
A method of removing a radioactive material from a gas includes directing the gas through a bed of salt (112), wherein the gas includes water vapor and the radioactive material. The salt (112) constitutes more than 50 percent by weight of the bed. The method additionally includes condensing the water vapor in the bed and dissolving a portion of the salt (112) to form a salt solution. The method further includes absorbing the radioactive material into the salt solution while a remainder of the gas passes through the bed. A salt filtration system (100) configured to perform the method may be implemented as a pre-filter to an existing filter unit or as a standalone filter.

[Problem] There is provided an adhesion restraint method of a radionuclide to a carbon steel material of an atomic energy plant, in which an adhesion restraint effect of the radionuclide to the carbon steel material can continue for a longer term. [Solution] A film forming apparatus is connected to a carbon steel purification system pipe of a BWR plant (S1). A nickel formate aqueous solution and hydrazine are injected into a circulation pipe of the film forming apparatus (S4, S5). An aqueous solution including nickel formate and hydrazine is guided into a purification system pipe subjected to chemical decontamination, and a nickel metal film (80) is formed on an inner surface of the pipe. A platinum ion aqueous solution and hydrazine are injected into the circulation pipe (S9, S10), and an aqueous solution including a platinum ion and hydrazine is supplied to the purification system pipe so as to adhere platinum to the surface of a nickel metal film (80). The film forming apparatus is detached from the purification system pipe, and the BWR plant is started. Reactor water of 200°C or higher is guided into the purification system pipe, and thus the nickel metal film is converted into a nickel ferrite film (82) which is not melted even by the adhering platinum and is stable.

The present invention relates to a method for granulation of an absorbent and adsorbent granules prepared by the same. The method comprises the steps of blending sodium metasilicate, metakaoline and an inorganic ion exchange material in water to form a slurry; decanting the resulted slurry onto a nylon cloth of 300 to 400 meshes and natural drying at ambient temperature to solidification; then breaking the solidified final product and sieving it by a screen having a mesh size of from 0.2 to 2.5 mm to provide the absorbent granules having excellent absorbability.
摘要:
A system (300) configured to passively filter radioactive materials from a flow (302) may include one or more particulate removal devices (310); one or more water removal devices (316); and/or one or more radionuclide removal devices (322). At least one of the one or more particulate removal devices may mechanically remove particulates of the radioactive materials from the flow. At least one of the one or more water removal devices mechanically may remove water from the flow. At least one of the one or more radionuclide removal devices may remove radioactive aerosols, reactive radioactive gases, or radioactive aerosols and reactive radioactive gases from the flow using engineered filter media (522). A filter (500) may include a body (502), including an inlet (504) and an outlet (510). The body may be configured to store filter media (522), to contain pressure from gas explosions, and/or to allow the stored filter media to move toward the outlet when pressure at the inlet increases.
