Description

A kind of On-line electrolytic dissolution mixer-settler
Technical field
The present invention relates to nuclear fuel reprocessing technical field, particularly in a kind of nuclear fuel reprocessing Purex flow for the reduction reextraction of plutonium with the 1B groove realizing uranium plutonium and be separated and the electrolyzer of 2B groove realizing plutonium purifying.
Background technology
In Purex flow, in order to realize the purifying of the separation of uranium plutonium and plutonium, need plutonium to be reduced to not easily by the trivalent that TBP extracts from tetravalence, and from organic phase back extraction to aqueous phase.The reduction of plutonium uses chemical method or electrochemical process usually.Use the chemical reducing agent such as uranous, azanol to be technique popular and ripe at present, but foreign ion can be introduced in system or produce a large amount of solids, liquid debris.Especially when the power reactor spent fuel that process plutonium content is high, uranous consumption large (French U (IV)/Pu ratio is up to 15-30), that causes uranium line to bear increases the weight of, and this process can be made to lose efficacy for trivalent plutonium and uranous self-catalyzed oxidating reaction sometimes from organic phase.
Compared with chemical reduction method, On-line electrolytic dissolution reduction method has following a series of outstanding advantage: 1. do not introduce foreign ion in system; 2. the fuel tolerance processing high plutonium content is strong; 3. simple to operate, be easy to control; 4. the processing costs of waste liq sum can be greatly reduced.
The device of electrolytic reduction plutonium mainly contains two kinds, and one is electrolysis mixer-settler, and another kind is then electrolysis pulse extraction post, but electrolysis pulse extraction post exists comparatively serious equipment corrosion and remote maintenance problem.Electrolysis mixer-settler is proposed by front Germany (West Germany) the earliest, Chinese scholar also once adopted this device afterwards, such as, disclosed " Useofelectrochemicalprocessesinaqueousreprocessingofnucl earfuels " article on " RadiochimicaActa " periodical in 1978, disclosed " TheSeparationofUraniumandPlutoniumbyElectrolyticReductio ninthePurexProcess " article on " ActinideSeparations " collection of thesis in 1980, these two sections of articles describe one using whole cell body as negative electrode, simultaneously in order to avoid anode reoxidizing and the degraded of organic phase solvent trivalent plutonium, electrolysis mixer-settler is designed to three zone type, namely anolyte compartment is set up on side, clarifying chamber, structure is as Fig. 1, shown in Fig. 2.
Zhang Qingxuan, Zhang Jiajun etc. think to there is a large amount of hydrazine in due to system in " research of neptunium behavior in the sepn process of the electrolytic reduction uranium plutonium " article disclosed on the S2 phase of " the Chinese nuclear science echnology report " of 1988, the redox potential value of hydrazine is far below the potential value of Pu (IV)/Pu (III), and uranous anodic oxidation has again very high overvoltage, so anode mainly occurs is the oxidizing reaction of hydrazine; In addition in electrolytic process, bath voltage is not high, therefore eliminates anolyte compartment, is directly contained in clarifying chamber by anode platinized platinum, simplifies the structure of electrolysis mixer-settler, and its structure as shown in Figure 3.
At present in disclosed pertinent literature, no matter Shi Dai anolyte compartment or the electrolysis mixer-settler of Bu Dai anolyte compartment is all cell body with metal titanium, cell body as common cathode, with insulating material (pottery or tetrafluoroethylene etc.) as interstage diaphragm.Such design first cell body is heavy and expensive, and each side character such as expanding with heat and contract with cold between differing materials is different, is easy to the liquid of altering causing inter-stage; Secondly electric field distribution is extremely uneven, although cathode area is very large, electrode utilising efficiency is low, and electrolytic reduction reaction only occurs on sub-fraction electrode area; Again owing to adopting the design of common cathode, only total current can be controlled, very difficult fixing quantity distributes to the electric current of each electrolysis level, (side reaction can produce nitrous acid in the side reaction that the excessive generation of some electrolysis level electric current can be made a large amount of, be unfavorable for trivalent plutonium and uranous stable), and some electrolysis level electric current is inadequate.
Summary of the invention
Instant invention overcomes the deficiencies in the prior art, provide the On-line electrolytic dissolution mixer-settler of each electrolysis level electric current of control that a kind of electrode utilization ratio is high, electrolytic reduction is effective, can be quantitative.
In order to solve the problems of the technologies described above, the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:
A kind of On-line electrolytic dissolution mixer-settler, by electrolysis level and non-electrolytic level, or being only made up of electrolysis level, arrange electrode in the clarifying chamber of each electrolysis level, negative electrode and anode intermesh, and also constitute the flow passage of feed liquid while as electrode.
The present invention is all right:
This device is made up of 1 ~ 20 electrolysis level.
Electrode in described clarifying chamber is that " E " font negative electrode and " U " font anode are staggered to form.
The cell body of On-line electrolytic dissolution mixer-settler is synthetic glass or stainless steel or titanium material.
During use, the size of the electric current of each electrolysis level reduces from from the electrolysis level close to charging gradually to electrolysis level far away.
Compared with prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects as follows:
This device is provided with electrode in clarifying chamber, electrode adopts negative electrode interlaced structure parallel with anode, make being evenly distributed of electric field, the flow condition of feed liquid has larger improvement, the utilization ratio of electrode improves greatly, and the cell body of On-line electrolytic dissolution mixer-settler no longer adopts the design of common cathode, the electric current of electrode at different levels can fixing quantity separately, effectively can reduce the generation of side reaction.This device very effectively can realize uranium plutonium and be separated, and separating effect is obviously better than original electrolysis mixer-settler, and separation factor is all obviously greater than 10 4.During for plutonium purification cycle, the reduction reextraction rate of plutonium reaches 99.999%.
Adopt E shape negative electrode, U-shaped anode the design of interlaced placement, electric field distribution is more even, drastically increases electrode utilization ratio.
Apply big current from the electrolysis level electrode close to charging level, apply small area analysis from the electrode away from charging level, like this can abundant back extraction plutonium, reduce the generation of side reaction simultaneously.
