Keywords: liquid waste, neutralization, filter, ion exchange
Abstract: The invention relates to treatment of liquid radioactive wastes. For the current neutralizing method mechanical filter and ultrafilter is utilized. Subsequently conducted desalination through reverse osmosis filter, with advanced treatment on ion-exchange filters, with reagent treatment of spent ion-exchange resins, potassium ferrocyanide and cobalt salts. Then, the treated resin is used as sorption prefilter, in which waste treatment is conducted, before inputting it into the ion-exchange filter.

Keywords: decontamination, ion exchange resin, extraction
Abstract: As part of a study being performed for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), small-scale waste specimens were collected following an AP/CAN-DEREM full-system decontamination of the reactor vessel of the Indian Point 2 reactor vessel in March 1995. CAN-DEREM is a modified version of a reduction process developed by Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. for that country’s heavy-water CANDU reactors. The INEEL research was undertaken to support licensing needs for reviewing radiological and chemical data and information to address uncertainties associated with disposal of low-level radioactive decontamination waste in performance assessment modeling. This report presents information on radionuclide and chelate characteristics of decontamination radwaste on ion-exchange resins. The information is expected to reduce uncertainties associated with developing radionuclide inventories for the performance assessment.

Keywords: metal, decontamination, monobath method, nitric acid
Abstract: The invention relates to nuclear technology, namely to decontamination of radioactively contaminated metals. The cleaning composition consists of: nitric acid (15.0~25.0%), sulfamic acid (0.1~4.0%), hydrofluoric acid (0.5~2.0%) and water (the rest). The method allows to implement monobath method of decontamination, in low temperature, which greatly simplifies the technical process, and it reduces the quantity of liquid waste by conducting effective decontamination.

Keywords: liquid waste, fixation
Abstract: The invention relates to treatment of liquid radioactive waste. Long-lived radionuclides are emitted from nitric acid solution of spent nuclear fuel to a solid phase, in form of acetates, oxides or other compounds, which do not contain strongly activated neutron elements. Then, the radionuclides are imputed and fixed into carbon matrix.

Keywords: liquid waste, solidification, phosphor
Abstract: The invention relates to treatment of liquid radioactive waste, namely to methods of concentrating the waste by evaporation (thermal distillation) and solidifying of radioactive concentrates. During the treatment, salt solution is evaporated at a given temperature and pH of the solution. After gaining salt concentrate in the evaporated solution, close to saturation, the evaporation is conducted in phosphoric acid medium, at 150~1870g/l of concentration of phosphoric acid and temperature of 105~130℃. The concentrated salt is solidified by phosphate binders.
