Definitions
- the present invention relates to the treatment of radioactive waste, in particular but not exclusively based on graphite.
- the decontamination of an irradiated graphite matrix may be carried out using a so-called “steam reforming” technique (or “steam reforming” in Anglo-Saxon terms) as defined in particular in document US-6. , 625, 248.
- steam reforming or “steam reforming” in Anglo-Saxon terms
- the technique presented in this document does not ensure acceptable radioactive releases.
- organic chlorine a form of chlorine termed "organic” chlorine, defined by C-Cl bonds specific to “aromatic carbon” (in particular of the high energy double bond type), and directly linked to the carbon of the carbon matrix usually forming graphite, and
- chlorine a form of chlorine
- inorganic chlorine in the form of oxychlorides of undetermined composition, probably located in the porosity of the graphitic material (called “chlorite compounds (C102-) and chlorate (C103-)").
- the acidic solution may comprise sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ). Tests with this type of acid have given good results.
- the acidic solution further comprises an oxygen supply element in the acidic solution, for example hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) in a range of proportions typically comprised between 0.1% and 20%. % (a proportion of 5% yielding good results presented below).
- H 2 O 2 hydrogen peroxide
- the soaking in the acidic solution can be carried out in a time range of between 15 and 20 hours, for example about 18 hours.
- the aforementioned thermal shock made for example by roasting, can be carried out in a temperature range between 800 and 1200 ° C (for example about 1000 ° C) for a period of between 15 and 30 minutes (for example about twenty minutes).
- the present invention thus makes it possible to extract chlorine 36, of organic type, as demonstrated in the exemplary embodiments presented in detail below.
- leaching of the radionuclides out of the irradiated graphite can be obtained by soaking in a highly acidic and oxidizing solution, followed by a thermal shock.
- the present invention also aims at a facility for the treatment of carbonaceous radioactive waste, for the purpose of process according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it comprises: a tank for storing said waste in an acidic solution, and
- Heating means shaped to apply a thermal shock to said waste after soaking in said acid solution.
- FIG. 1 diagrammatically illustrates the main steps of the process within the meaning of the invention
- Carbonaceous radioactive waste was crushed into powder form to constitute the different samples of the table above.
- Each sample having a mass of 5 grams and observed particle sizes distributed typically between 2380 and 4000 microns after crushing, was: soaked for 18 hours in a solution of the aforementioned type (H 2 SO 4 and H 2 O 2 ),
- o by rapid heating in a range of 5 to 60 minutes, for example for 20 minutes
- o high temperature between 900 and 1200 ° C, for example at 1000 ° C.
- FIG. 1 summarizes the main steps of the process within the meaning of the invention, comprising: for example, during a first step S1, the recovery of radioactive carbonaceous waste, for example in the form of graphite,
- step S3 after identifying a sufficient soaking time (for example 18 hours) in step S3, applying a heat treatment, by roasting, at a temperature of the order of 1000 ° C, in step S4;
- step S5 After identifying a sufficient duration of heat treatment (for example 20 minutes) in step S5,
- chlorine 36 can be recovered in the acid solution and treated separately, and the carbonaceous waste can then be subjected to a vapor reforming treatment as described, for example, in the document cited above.
- WO-2010/103210 step S6.
- the installation for the implementation of this process may then comprise, with reference to FIG. 2, a tank CU and a conveyor C1 of GR waste products pouring into a highly acidic and oxygenated solution (H 2 SO 4 H 2 O 2 ) contained in the tank CU, which is surrounded (in the example shown) heating means MC to apply a heat shock type treatment.
- the GR waste thus treated can then be recovered by the second conveyor C2 (after filtering, for example, the acid solution now containing chlorine-36) to be conveyed to a steam reforming installation.
- Chlorine 36 can be recovered for example from the solution remaining under the tank CU, as presented as a purely illustrative example in Figure 2.
- hydrogen peroxide is a good oxygen delivery element in a solution.
- step a) the proportions of the oxygen supply element in the acid solution are susceptible to variations depending on the acids and elements employed.
- the soaking time in step a) is capable of variations. The same goes for the temperature and the duration of the thermal shock.
- step a) of soaking in the acid solution is preceded by a crushing of the carbonaceous waste to reduce it to powder.
- this implementation is not essential and it can be alternatively provided to directly dipping solid graphite for example up to heart in an acid solution.
