次世代のエネルギー確保に向けた乾式再処理技術開発への取り組みについて; 使用済み電解質の処理にかかる技術開発

Pyroreprocessing development for next generation energy; Reducing high-level radioactive waste volume

高速増殖炉サイクル実用化研究開発における副概念では、使用済金属燃料を乾式法で再処理することにしている。乾式再処理運転に伴い、媒質として使用した無水塩化物が使用済み電解質として発生する。使用済み電解質は、高レベル放射性廃棄物に区分されるため、使用済み電解質の成分であるFPと媒質を分離し、媒質についてはリサイクルしていくことが好ましい。本報は、乾式再処理によって発生する使用済み電解質の処理法について、これまでの開発経緯や今後の課題について、各国の開発状況も踏まえ、とりまとめたものである。

The pyroprocess as a non-aqueous reprocessing, is oriented as a complementary concept for the Fact Project. The pyroprocess possesses some inherent problems that have yet to be solved. The purification and recycling of the spent electrolyte as a regenerated medium by removing its fission products (FP) must be further investigated to reduce the volume of high-level radioactive waste (HLW). Some FP elements dissolved in the medium are apt to remain in the spent electrolyte after recovering actinoid elements. To remove such FP, the zeolite sorption is applied as it is considered the most suitable method, but its concept should be modified in order to reduce the generating waste volume. As one of the solutions, the electrolyte recycle process by phosphates is being developed. In this paper, the author has discussed the pyroprocess development, highlighting the spent electrolyte treatment from the viewpoint of economical and environmental load reduction.
