(1) the solid-liquid separation can be carried out on the radioactive slurry, so that the solid content in the radioactive slurry (filtrate) is reduced, high-level radioactive filter residues and low-level radioactive filtrate are obtained, the filtrate can be directly treated in modes of cement solidification and the like, the filter residues are stored in a special radioactive waste disposal barrel in a sealing mode, the treatment effect is good, the problem that the high-level radioactive slurry cannot be treated in the traditional technology can be solved, and the method is suitable for the export engineering of the radioactive slurry with high alpha nuclide content.
(2) By arranging the condensing device, steam and low-boiling-point substances generated by drying can be recovered, the content of harmful substances such as radioactive substances in tail gas is reduced, and the air pollution is reduced.
Example 3
The embodiment discloses a radioactive slurry treatment method, which adopts the treatment system in the embodiment 2 to treat radioactive slurry with high alpha nuclide content, and comprises the following specific steps:
(1) the sealing lid of the filtration vessel 1 is opened, and a filtration bag having a pore size of 500 μm is installed in the filtration vessel 1 by a robot or a crane, and the sealing lid is restored and sealed.
(2) And opening the feed valve 6, introducing the radioactive slurry in the third storage tank 5 into a filter bag in the filter container 1 at a flow rate of 20-50L/min, and closing the feed valve 6 in a linkage manner when the level meter detects that the introduced radioactive slurry reaches a set limit height.
(3) The bypass line 7 is opened and the feed line 4 is flushed with cleaning water.
(4) And starting the vacuum pump 2, pumping negative pressure to the filtering container 1, filtering the radioactive slurry in the filtering bag under the action of the negative pressure, allowing the filtrate to flow into the first storage tank 3, and leaving filter residues in the filtering bag, namely, the solid-liquid separation process.
(5) And after the solid-liquid separation is finished, closing the vacuum pump, opening the drying device, and introducing 90-110 ℃ compressed air at a flow rate of 100-200L/min if an air inlet pipeline and the first heater are opened, and/or opening the second heater to heat the filtering container to 90-110 ℃ so that the water in the filter residue is evaporated into steam, namely the drying process.
(6) Meanwhile, the fan 18 is turned on, and the mixture of the vapor and the introduced compressed air is discharged into the condenser 20 through the gas outlet pipeline 17 for cooling, so that the vapor and the low-boiling-point substances in the gas are condensed into liquid, and a condensate is obtained, namely the condensation process. The condensate is discharged into a second storage tank 21 for temporary storage, and the uncondensed gas is conveyed to the tail gas treatment process 13 through a fan 18 for tail gas treatment. When it is detected that the humidity of the gas in the gas outlet line 17 is less than a certain value (for example, the humidity is 5%, which can be obtained by performing tests according to the composition of the gas), the drying device is turned off.
(7) After the drying and condensing process is completed, the sealing cover of the filtering container 1 is opened, the filter residue and the filter bag are transferred to a waste barrel 23 (e.g. a 200L steel barrel) for sealing by means of a mechanical arm or a crane, and then transferred to a waste disposal warehouse 24 for storage, i.e. the treatment of the high-level solid radioactive substance is completed.
(8) The filtrate in the first reservoir 3 and the condensate in the second reservoir 21 are sent to the cement solidification apparatus 10, and mixed with cement or the like to form a cement solidified body, thereby completing the treatment of the filtrate and the condensate with a low radioactivity level.
