A nuclear power plant wherein surfaces of components contacting with nuclear reactor cooling water containing radioactive substances are coated with an oxide film, preferably being charged positively and/or containing chromium in an amount of 12% by weight or more, is prevented effectively from the deposition of radioactive substances thereon.
摘要:
The present invention is concerned with a method of reducing radioactivity in a nuclear plant by preliminarily forming oxide films on the surfaces of metallic structural members to be in contact with high-temperature and high-pressure reactor water containing radioactive substances before said metallic members are exposed to said reactor water. The method is characterized by the steps of subjecting said structural members to a first-step oxidation treatment of heating said structural members in an environment of a high temperature, and further subjecting the thus treated structural members to a second step oxidation treatment of heating said treated structural members in an environment having a higher oxidizing capacity than that of said environment in said first-step oxidation treatment to form a denser oxide film than an oxide film obtained in said first step oxidation treatment. According to the present invention, radioactivity in the nuclear plant can be reduced remarkably.
摘要:
A nuclear power plant using a structural material consisting of metal which comes into contact with a liquid in which radioactive substances are dissolved has a function to suppress the deposition of the radioactive substances. In this function, metal elements constituting the surface layer of the structural material which comes into contact with the liquid are oxidized by injecting oxidizing agents from outside, thereby preliminarily producing an oxide film. The oxidizing agents comprise at least one kind selected from the group consisting of oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, chromate, nitrite, molybdate, tungstate and ferrate. Particularly, by suppressing the deposition of radioactive substances on a stainless steel, the dose rate of exposure of workers is effectively reduced.

A method of inhibiting corrosion of carbon steel piping of condensate and feed water systems in a power generating plant, characterized by continuing the water in said piping to flow after also said plant has been shut down until it is restarted up and by keeping the specific electric conductivity of flowing water at 0.5 .mu.S/cm or less.
摘要:
The present invention provides a process for removing a metal surface oxide from a metallic substance by contacting the metal surface oxide layer with a deterging liquid to introduce electrons into the metal surface oxide in contact with the deterging liquid to dissolve the metal surface oxide, which process is characterized in that a metal piece or carbon piece is immersed in the deterging liquid into which gaseous hydrogen has been introduced and the metal piece or carbon piece is electrically connected to the metal surface oxide on the metallic substance. The metal piece is preferably platinum or vanadium. A preferred deterging liquid is one having a pH of about 5 to 7 and containing a complexing agent.
摘要:
A cleaning fluid such as a chemical decontamination solution originally containing one or more cleaning or decontamination reagents in low concentrations and deteriorated after a cleaning or decontamination treatment step by containing metal oxides therein can be regenerated by introducing such a deteriorated cleaning fluid into an electrolytic cell, passing a direct current through said cleaning fluid between two electrodes, and removing said metal oxides by depositing dissolved metal ions on the cathode as metals from the cleaning fluid.
摘要:
Magnetic attracting means, especially a permanent magnet, is disposed in a high pressure feed water heater drain pipe line or air separator water tank of feed water and condensed water systems in a thermoelectric power plant. By adoption of this arrangement, iron oxides contained in water in the feed water and condensed water systems can effectively be attracted and removed by this magnetic attracting means.

In a hermetically circulating, absorption type refrigerator based on a closed circulation system of constituent members comprised of a successive communication of a regenerator, a condenser, an evaporator, an absorber and a heat exchanger, refrigeration being produced by repetitions of concentration, refrigerant dilution, and heat exchange of an aqueous concentrated lithium bromide solution sealed in the circulation system, a hydrogen gas generated in the refrigerator is continuously converted to water, condensed and removed or returned to the refrigerator as a refrigerant. The pressure increase in the refrigerator can be prevented, and a high refrigerating performance can be continuously maintained without any special maintenance.

A hermetically circulating, absorption type refrigerator based on a closed circulation system comprised of a successive communication of a regenerator, a condenser, an evaporator, an absorber and a heat exchanger, parts or the whole of said constituent members in contact with an absorbing solution being comprised of a copper material selected from copper and copper alloy, and refrigeration being produced by repetitions of concentration, refrigerant dilution and heat exchange of an aqueous lithium bromide solution sealed in the circulation system is characterized in that the absorbing solution is an aqueous lithium bromide solution containing (a) a nitrate and (b) at least one triazole compound selected from benzotriazole and tolyltriazole, and has a particularly distinguished corrosion resistance.
摘要:
A process for the partial hot dipping of a long steel strip is disclosed which comprises forming an oxidation-inhibiting film, oxygen-impermeable and thermally stable in a hot-dipping bath, which film is produced by the chemical reaction of an iron content in the steel strip with an oxidation inhibiting film-forming agent, such as an inorganic phosphoric acid compound, on a predetermined area of the steel strip surface, forming, as required, an intermediate layer comprising an inorganic binder, such as water glass, on the resulting film, forming a carbon-containing, plateing-stopping film as a top coat on the intermediate layer, and hot dipping the steel strip.
