    摘要: A waste vitrification apparatus (10) having rotatable mixer impeller (16) functioning as a shaft electrode (60) and metallic vessel (14) functioning as a vessel electrode (62). A stream (12) of waste material and vitrifiable material are mixed and melted in the vessel (14) for vitrification. The waste vitrification method converts a feed stream (12) by mixing the feed stream into a glass melt (13) and melting glass batch of the feed stream (12) to form a foamy mass. The stream is dispersed by the impeller (16) to form a foam which is then densified in a settling zone (22), recovered through a spout (24) and solidified in storage containers. An adjuster adjusts the location of the mixing impeller (16) in the vessel (14) to change the depth of the settling zone (22). The impeller (16) is mounted on a drive shaft (18) having a recirculating coolant flow.

    摘要: In a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant for processing a used nuclear fuel by a nitric acid solution, the present invention provides a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant characterized by including electrolytic reduction means for reducing the valence of oxidizing metal ions consisting of the nuclear fuel and dissolved in the nitric acid solution while they are kept under the ionic state. In a processing method of a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant for processing a used nuclear fuel by a nitric acid solution, the present invention provides also a corrosion-proofing method of a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant characterized in that electrolytic reduction is carried out so that the valence of oxidizing metal ions consisting of the nuclear fuel and dissolved in the nitric acid solution is reduced while the metal ions are kept under the ionic state and NOx gas is also generated. The invention is directed to provide a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant and its corrosion-proofing method which prevents corrosion of equipment without allowing the precipitation of corrosive metal ions in a nitric acid solution as the metals.

    摘要: A solidification processing apparatus for radioactive waste materials comprises a tank for a solidifying agent for solidifying the radioactive waste materials, a waste material vessel connected to the tank for the radioactive waste materials, a pouring control unit for controlling pouring of the solidifying agent into the vessel, and a heating and curing chamber for heating the vessel by an indirect heating unit after pouring the solidifying agent onto the waste materials in the vessel to polymerize and set the solidifying agent, thereby solidifying the radioactive waste materials. With this arrangement, the solidifying agent superior in impregnation is poured into a vessel filled with radioactive waste materials, whose poured amount is controlled by the pouring control unit. After pouring the solidifying agent into the vessel, the vessel is heated indirectly by an indirect heating unit in order to avoid deflagration if the solidifying agent is combustible. The solidifying agent is polymerized and set in a relatively short time by promoting the polymerization reaction of the agent to solidify the radioactive waste materials with stability.

    摘要: A continuous dissolution apparatus for spent nuclear fuel in which a container (2) for holding a dissolution processing solution (1) is continuously supplied with nitric acid from a feed port (3), while the processing solution is continuously drawn out from an outlet (4). Baskets (71-74) in the container are packed with spent-fuel chops (6), which are continuously dissolved by the processing solution. The container is provided with a solution reserving section (4) for lowering the concentration of radioiodine contained in the dissolution processing solution, and a partition wall (10) is formed between the solution reserving section and a container body. The dissolution processing solution having overflowed from the upper edge of the partition wall flows into the solution reserving portion (14) through a perforated plate column (11). The solution reserving portion is furnished with a heating coil (12) for heating the dissolution processing solution and generating steam, and a gas blow pipe (13) for injecting an inert or nitrogen oxide gas into the solution. Thus, elementary iodine within the dissolution processing solution of the solution reserving section is expelled from the off-gas outlet (5) of the container together with the steam, and the radioiodine concentration in the dissolution processing solution of the solution reserving section can be lowered.

    摘要: Radioactive wastes are treated in a furnace which has electrodes for electric heating. The furnace has at the lower end an outlet for slag material as well as a gas discharge line. Its well is a self-supporting tubular body which is arranged detachably in a metal furnace housing. At the upper end of the well is a line for feeding water. Thereby, carbon-containing waste, possibly also carbon of a carbon bed, is reacted to form water gas (CO+H.sub.2), which is burned after purification in an exhaust gas plant. The outlet of the metal housing has a movable grate.

    摘要: The invention is directed to an apparatus vitrifying radioactive fission ducts in liquid solution. The liquid solution is pumped in metered quantities from a feed container to a vitrifying oven. The offgas occurring during vitrification is scrubbed of entrained radioactive dust particles and the like by a scrubbing liquid in a scrubber. In order to obtain a simplified sequence of method steps for metering the liquid solution and for scrubbing the offgas, the radioactive fission product solution from the feed container itself is used as the scrubbing liquid. This fission product solution is taken from the feed container and conducted to the counterflow scrubber through which it is passed in a direction opposite to the flow of the offgas. The fission product solution used as a scrubbing liquid is returned to the feed container after passing through the counterflow scrubber.

    摘要: Chemical complexes, useful as radiopharmaceuticals, are formed by reacting technetium-99m with substituted or unsubstituted alkyl monophosphonic acids and certain ester derivatives thereof. The complexes are formed by reducing pertechnetate ion chemically or electrolytically in the presence of the phosphonic acid. By chemical modification of the phosphonic acid complexing agent, it is possible to "tailor" complexes for kidney, liver or bone imaging. The complexes are normally used in a physiologically acceptable aqueous medium.

    摘要: An apparatus for fixing radioactive or toxic waste has an extruder including a mixing mechanism for intermingling and advancing the waste and a carrier material introduced into the extruder. The extruder has a heating zone with which there communicates a vapor outlet device having an observation window. Within the vapor outlet device there is disposed an arrangement for cleaning the window and an arrangement for removing deposits from those locations of the vapor outlet device that are adjacent the mixing mechanism. The condenser is coupled to a distillate accumulator with the interposition of two alternatingly operating filters for removing particles from the condensate obtained from the condenser. To the outlet of the extruder there is coupled a loading device in which containers are successively filled with the material discharged by the extruder. The loading device includes an interrupter bowl which receives the material discharged by the extruder during an exchange of an empty container for a filled container below the extruder outlet.
