LEDF (Large Equipment Dismantling Facility) will be constructed for the purpose of decontaminating the high level $alpha solid waste generated in oarai engineering center of JNC. And, main processing process of LEDF is incineration and melting system. LEDF will be intended to reduce the secondary waste that occurs along with the operation of the off gas processing equipment of incineration and melting system. It assumed that we are able to eliminate the adsorption tower using silica gel, if the decontamination factor to volatile ruthenium is able to expect in the packed scrubber that is established to remove harmful gas. Thereupon, we carried out this tests that eliminates the adsorption tower and reduces the secondary waste. The decontamination factor (DF) to the volatile ruthenium by the water scrubber is confirmed in the established institution which is in Tokai Works. However, decontamination factor differs and depends on the ruthenium concentration, harmful gas concentration, washing method and also washing condition. Also, the DF value to the volatile ruthenium in the off gas that occurs from incineration and melting system is obtained, does not exist under the same condition as LEDF. Therefore, the decontamination factor to the volatile ruthenium of the packed scrubber under the operating condition of LEDF is confirmed by this test. The main result of this study is as follows (1) In the examination of the test device specification, the packed scrubber design method was investigated. And, the test device that maintained the resemblance nature with a real machine was produced on the basis of this result. (2) In the result of the ruthenium occurrence condition confirmation test, it was confirmed that the test condition such as the kind of the oxidizer, hold temperature of the oxidization reaction container that produce volatile ruthenium continuously, (3) In the result of the occurrence temperature influence confirmation test, it was confirmed that the ...
