Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a method and a device for the treatment by electrolysis of solutions containing tritiated water such as effluents from plants for reprocessing irradiated nuclear fuels, water for cooling light water or water reactors. heavy and effluents from laboratories where tritium is handled.
  • solutions containing tritiated water such as effluents from plants for reprocessing irradiated nuclear fuels, water for cooling light water or water reactors. heavy and effluents from laboratories where tritium is handled.
  • aqueous solutions containing a large quantity of tritiated water for example a content of approximately 40 Ci / m 3 , are obtained at certain stages of reprocessing. These solutions are generally obtained during the concentration by evaporation of uranium, plutonium or fission product solutions, or during the regeneration treatment of nitric acid with a view to its recycling at the dissolving stage of irradiated fuel elements. . In the latter case, these solutions are obtained during the concentration of the nitric acid which has been formed by regenerating by means of water vapor the nitrogen oxides originating from the step of destruction of the nitric acid by the formalin. It is also possible to envisage higher concentrations, either by recycling the nitric solutions, or by isotopic concentration of the effluents.
  • the present invention specifically relates to a process for treating solutions containing water formed from an isotope of hydrogen, which is suitable for the treatment of tritiated water and makes it possible to solve the problems of recovery of tritium in satisfactory conditions.
  • this process for treating a solution containing water formed from an isotope of hydrogen consists in adding to the solution an electrolyte chosen in such a way that the solution obtained can liberate by electrolysis the isotope of hydrogen in the gaseous state, to subject the solution thus obtained to electrolysis so as to obtain a release of the isotope of hydrogen, by operating in an electrolysis cell comprising a metal cathode capable of promoting the diffusion of the hydrogen isotope, said cathode forming a sealed separation wall between the solution to be electrolyzed and a compartment for receiving the hydrogen isotope, and the isotope is recovered in said compartment hydrogen desorbed from said cathode, and it is characterized in that said isotope of hydrogen is tritium and the cathode is coated with a deposit of porous palladium black on its surface in contact with the solution to be electrolyzed.
  • the cathode coated with porous palladium black thanks to the structure and the nature of the cathode coated with porous palladium black, it is possible to recover directly in the gaseous state, with good yields, the tritium released during the electrolysis, after its diffusion through the electrode wall and its desorption on the other side of the electrode.
  • the choice of a cathode of non-porous material, permeable to hydrogen and impermeable to other gases makes it possible to obtain, after release of the tritium at the cathode, an adsorption of the tritium by the cathode, then a diffusion of this in the cathode and its desorption on the other side of the cathode in the receiving compartment.
  • a slight depression is established in the receiving compartment, for example when the tritium is collected by pumping.
  • the first step constitutes the most important step because it determines the amount of tritium which could be adsorbed then diffused by the wall of the cathode in contact with the electrolyte.
  • a cathode coated on its surface is used in contact with the solution to be electrolyzed from a deposit of porous palladium black.
  • this deposit makes it possible to increase the specific surface of the cathode and to give it a higher adsorption capacity with respect to tritium.
  • a second deposit on the desorption side is also favorable but in lesser proportions.
  • tritium can also be recovered in the form of solid metal tritiide by reacting it directly in the reception compartment with a compound capable of forming a metal tritiide. Mention may be made, as compounds capable of being used, of La-Ni s compounds, Fe-Ti compounds and palladium, alloyed or not.
  • a cathode covered with porous palladium black is used on its adsorption face and, preferably, also on its desorption face. Furthermore, the presence of traces of ferric oxide on the adsorption face of the cathode is favorable and the use of annealing to restore the cathode also makes it possible to improve the results obtained.
  • the cathode is advantageously made of palladium or a palladium alloy such as a palladium-silver alloy because these metals have the property of adsorbing very large quantities of tritium.
  • a palladium alloy such as a palladium-silver alloy
  • an alloy of palladium and silver with 25% silver is used because it has a permeability substantially equal to that of pure palladium and the property of not deteriorating after repeated cycles of heating and hydrogenation.
  • metals capable of adsorbing tritium can be used, for example, pure iron, nickel, platinum and their alloys.
  • T tritium
  • the secondary reactions to avoid are: because in this case, the tritium would be discharged directly into the electrolysis cell, instead of diffusing through the wall of the electrode.
  • the adsorption of tritium by palladium is improved by subjecting the palladium or palladium alloy electrode to an activation treatment comprising a step of coating the surface of the electrode which will be in contact with the solution to be electrolyzed, a layer of finely divided and porous palladium black.
  • the porous palladium black coating is formed by electrolysis of a solution of palladium chloride in dilute hydrochloric acid. This electrolysis can be carried out at a current density of 150 mA / cm 2 for 4 min. Thus, a deposit of palladium black with a thickness of 6 I lm is obtained.
  • the annealing heat treatment makes it possible to increase the size of the meshes of the metal network of the cathode and thus to improve the diffusion of the tritium in the cathode.
  • the palladium electrodes are generally obtained by rolling and are therefore strongly hardened.
  • the grains appear little and are oriented in the direction of rolling.
  • recrystallization annealing is possible since the germs necessary for the growth of the crystals have been produced by work hardening, the most disturbed regions where the dislocation energy is concentrated playing the role of germs.
  • the metal is heated to a suitable temperature, the germs start to grow and the grain gets bigger; after a certain heating time which corresponds to the incubation period, the recrystallization actually begins.
  • time and temperature play an important role and temperature intervenes in a rather complex way.
  • the temperature is not high enough during the incubation period, the number of germs decreases and recrystallization can be suppressed, which corresponds to the phenomenon of restoration.
  • palladium electrodes good results are obtained by annealing at a temperature of around 650 ° C for one hour under vacuum.
  • the hardness decreases, the mechanical tensions are reduced and the dislocations or other imperfections of the metallic network can move towards the surface of the electrode, from where a better diffusion of the tritium in the metallic network of palladium.
  • the mechanical abrasion treatment using ferric oxide as a hydrogenation accelerator makes it possible to modify the energy required to pass the chemisorbed hydrogen into hydrogen absorbed in the interstitial sites directly below the cathode surface.
  • Iron occupies a number of sites by lending electrons to the 4d band of palladium. This model of iron adsorption which covers the cathode surface increases the permeability of hydrogen in palladium with decrease in potential and increase in current.
  • This treatment acts on the amount of tritium released over time.
  • the deposition of a thin layer of finely divided and porous palladium black on the surface of the cathode in contact with the solution to be electrolyzed makes it possible to improve the adsorption and the diffusion of tritium.
  • the existence on the surface of a very finely divided deposit of palladium black promotes and multiplies the reactions which occur at the solid-solution interface to be electrolyzed.
  • a deposit of palladium black on the desorption face improves the diffusion.
  • the electrolyte added to the solution containing the tritiated water preferably consists of an alkali metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, which makes it possible to avoid as much as possible the formation of complex ions resulting from radiolysis phenomena and the presence of solvated electrons due to tritium.
  • an alkali metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide
  • the electrolyte concentration of this solution is advantageously from 1 ml-1 to 20 ml-1.
