本発明は、核分裂生成物を含有する廃液の処理システム
に係り、特に、再処理プラント廃液の同化前処理に関す
る。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a treatment system for waste fluids containing nuclear fission products, and in particular to assimilation pretreatment of reprocessing plant waste fluids.
再処理プラントでは、使用済核燃料の再処理に伴い、多
量の核分裂生成物を含む廃液が発生する。In reprocessing plants, waste fluid containing a large amount of fission products is generated as spent nuclear fuel is reprocessed.
これらの廃液は放射能レベルに応じて、約三つに別けら

する固体の廃棄物は高レベルと中レベルの同化体である
。このうち、高レベルの同化体は発生量が少ないため、
特殊な放射能のしゃへい容器を必要とするが問題とはな
らない。These waste liquids are divided into three types and treated depending on their radioactivity levels. That is, the highest level is
After being stored in the plant for a certain period of time, it is solidified using a highly hermetic assimilative material such as glass. In addition, those of intermediate level are reduced in volume through operations such as concentration, and then solidified with cement or asphalt on a scale similar to that of a 200Q drum. In addition, low-level water consists of condensed water generated during intermediate-level concentration and waste water from washing work clothes, etc. These are at a level that does not require treatment, but just in case, coagulation-sedimentation method etc. Processed by It is then released into the ocean. Therefore, the solid waste produced by reprocessing has high and medium levels of assimilate. Among these, high-level assimilates are produced in small amounts, so
A special radioactivity shielding container is required, but this is not a problem.
一方、中レベル固化体は、放射能レベルは低いが。On the other hand, medium-level solidified material has a low radioactivity level.
発生量が多く特殊なしゃへい容器もないため、輸送規準
の表面線量率を満足するように作成されなければならな
い。Because the amount generated is large and there are no special shielding containers, it must be constructed to meet the surface dose rate of transportation standards.
従って、中レベル廃液中から、表面線量率を増加させる
主要な放射性核種を除去することは、同化体のハンドリ
ング上有効である。Therefore, removing major radionuclides that increase the surface dose rate from medium-level waste liquid is effective in handling assimilates.

うにフェロシアン化金属化合物添着ゼオライトによる放
射性セシウムの除去方法がある。There are various methods for selectively removing only major radionuclides, but a typical method for removing fission products is ferrocyanization, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 79999/1983. There is a method for removing radioactive cesium using zeolite impregnated with metal compounds.

着材で除去する方法を示しているにすぎ化するという問
題もあった。また、前段にPHを調整する装置を設置し
、除去性能を安定化させることは従来技術の範囲である
が、装置の設置に伴うコスト高、設置スプースの増大を
伴う。The above-mentioned conventional technology has the problem that it merely describes a method for removing radioactive cesium and the like using a specific adsorbent. Furthermore, it is within the scope of the prior art to install a device for adjusting the PH in the front stage to stabilize the removal performance, but this involves high costs and an increase in installation space due to the installation of the device.
本発明の目的は、再処理プラントにおける主要な放射性
核種の除去方法、除去装置の設置場所を設置することに
より、表面線量率の低い同化体を作成することにある。An object of the present invention is to create an assimilate with a low surface dose rate by providing a method for removing major radionuclides in a reprocessing plant and an installation location for a removal device.
上記目的は、再処理プラントにおいて、表面線量率への
寄与の大きい放射性核種が放射性セシウムであることを
見い出し、この放射性セシウムを、濃縮器の後段に設置
した吸着材により除去し、この後、廃液を固化すること
により達成される。The above purpose was to discover that radioactive cesium is the radionuclide that makes a large contribution to the surface dose rate in a reprocessing plant, and to remove this radioactive cesium using an adsorbent installed after the concentrator. This is achieved by solidifying.
放射性セシウムの除去用の吸着材を濃縮器の後段に設置
することによって濃縮器の防蝕用のPH調整槽が利用で
きるので、放射性セシウム除去用の吸着材のためのpH
調整槽が不要となる。また、濃縮後の廃液を対象とする
ため、取り扱う廃液量が少なくなり、システムが簡単に
なる。By installing an adsorbent for removing radioactive cesium after the concentrator, a pH adjustment tank for corrosion protection of the concentrator can be used.
No adjustment tank is required. In addition, since the waste liquid after concentration is targeted, the amount of waste liquid to be handled is reduced and the system becomes simpler.
濃縮後の廃液中から、放射性セシウムが除去可能である
のは、以下の二点の実験事実による。The fact that radioactive cesium can be removed from the concentrated waste liquid is based on the following two experimental facts.
(1)放射性セシウムが濃縮によって、化学形態が変化
することがないため、吸着材によって効率よく除去でき
る。(1) The chemical form of radioactive cesium does not change due to concentration, so it can be efficiently removed using an adsorbent.
(2)濃縮廃液中の高濃度の電解質、この場合、硝酸ナ
トリウムの共存下でも、放射性セシウ・ムが除去できる
。(2) Radioactive cesium can be removed even in the presence of a highly concentrated electrolyte, in this case sodium nitrate, in the concentrated waste liquid.

The generated waste liquid, which will be explained below according to the procedure, is collected in a pH, i1M adjustment tank 3, and a stirrer 1.
pH ? while being stirred by 2. 14! ! 1 is performed. During pH adjustment, nitric acid is supplied from the nitric acid tank 1 via the valve 14, or sodium hydroxide 11 is supplied from the sodium hydroxide solution tank via the valve 15 as necessary.
is supplied. Here, the pH is adjusted to 7 to 9 in order to prevent corrosion of the subsequent concentrator 4. Thereafter, the waste liquid is sent to the concentrator 4, where it is concentrated by about 1° to 10.0 times until the dissolved component (main component: thorium nitrate) in the waste liquid is 20 to 30 wt%. The water vapor generated at this time is returned to water by the condenser 9 and sent to the low level system. The concentrated waste liquid has a pH of 7 to 1o, and is sent to the adsorption tower 5 by the pump 11 to remove radioactive cesium. Adsorbents used here include mordenite and zeolite impregnated with metal ferrocyanide compounds. The effective pH range of each is 1-12.2-1o. The removal efficiency of radioactive cesium from sodium nitrate was 99% or more for all adsorbents. However, 6.8 mg-Cs/g for the metal ferrocyanide compound impregnated compound.
On the other hand, mordenite is about 1/100 of that.
It is. From the above points, mordenite has a wide effective pH range, so it is possible to remove radioactive cesium even if the pH of the waste liquid reaches 10 or higher, but its small adsorption capacity increases the amount of used adsorbent. do. On the other hand, zeolite impregnated with metal ferrocyanide compounds has a narrow pH range;
The amount of used adsorbent is small.
