摘要:
Objective of the present invention is to provide a preferable solidified body ensuring performance of artificial barrier in a solidifying process for incombustible miscellaneous solid waste and other wastes such as calcined ashes by preventing generation of hydrogen gas by a reaction of amphoteric metal included in the waste with solidifying materials.In order to suppress the reaction of the amphoteric metal with the solidifying materials, any one or arbitrary plurality of the following three means are provided in the solidifying materials;(1) A means for forming protection film on surface of the amphoteric metal,(2) A means for enhancing hydration reaction of cement,(3) A means for reducing basicity of the solidifying materials.In accordance with the present invention, a preferable solidified body can be obtained by a simple and easy method which does not necessitate separation and pre-treatment of the waste.

The process of the present invention comprises adding an alkaline earth metal hydroxide such as barium hydroxide to a radioactive liquid waste containing sodium sulfate as the main component to convert the latter into an insoluble alkaline earth metal salt such as barium sulfate, adding silicic acid to by-product sodium hydroxide to prepare water glass and solidifying the radioactive insoluble alkaline earth metal salt with the water glass. According to this process, exudation of radioactive substances from the solid can be prevented and the solid having a high durability can be obtained at a low cost.

An object of the present invention is to improve retainability (distribution coefficient) for C-14 of a radioactive waste solidified body. The waste is solidified with a solidification agent containing a soluble substance which yields an insoluble substance by a reaction with carbonic ions, insoluble carbonates, or a mixture of the above substances. And, as for a pre-treatment, the soluble substance which yields an insoluble substance by a reaction with carbonic ions is previously reacted with liquid waste, and subsequently the solidification is performed. The retainability (distribution coefficient) for C-14 of the solidified body of the waste increases about one order.

The present invention provides a method for decontaminating metal components which have been contaminated on their surfaces with radioactive substances, characterized in that radioactivated oxide films on the metal surfaces are electrolytically removed by an alternating electrolysis method in a neutral salt solution. According to the invention, oxides and hydroxides for metals removed by the electrolytic treatment are separated from the electrolyte and solidified. The method of this invention makes it possible to positively remove the radioactivated oxide films from a base metal.

The present invention relates to a method for treating radioactive laundry waste water generated from a nuclear power plant, nuclear fuel reprocessing plant, or radioactive nuclides handling facilities, and provides a method for treating the waste water safely and for reducing the volume of generated radioactive waste to a minimum. Radioactive laundry waste water containing a detergent of which major contents are a nonionic surface active agent and inorganic builders is concentrated by an evaporating concentrator, the concentrated waste water is dried and pulverized to dry powder by a rotary centrifugal thin film dryer, and the dry powder is incinerated. By using the above detergent, foaming at the concentration can be reduced, and the concentrated waste water can be easily dried and pulverized. Further, the dried powder can be incinerated stably and safely without influencing undesirable effect on the body of the incinerator. In accordance with the present invention, laundry waste water can be treated simply and safely, and the final volume of radioactive waste can be reduced to minimum.
摘要:
A soluble salt (sodium sulfate or sodium borate (Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4 or Na.sub.2 B.sub.4 O.sub.7) contained as the main component in a concentrated radioactive waste liquid generated in the BWR power plant or the PWR power plant is insolubilized and precipitated, sodium hydroxide (NaOH formed in the insolubilization is separated from the precipitate and the radioactive waste liquid slurry containing the precipitate is solidified with a hydraulic solidifying material. Since the separated caustic soda (NaOH) is free of radioactive substances, it can be easily utilized again, and since the radioactive substances are stably fixed in the solidified body, leakage of radioactivity from the solidified body can be greatly reduced.
