JAEA has been working on development of extraction chromatography technology for recovery of trivalent minor actinides (MA(III)) from high-level radioactive waste generated in reprocessing of spent fuel. The technology utilizes porous silica particles with about 50 micrometre diameter for support of adsorbents. Pressure drop of the packed column depends on characteristics of the particle. Large pressure drop of the column is not favorable for safety assessment of the technology although a certain level of the pressure drop is indispensable for excellent separation performance. In this study, we applied a granulation technique using a spray dryer that is widely used in industry, and conducted experiments to find the optimal specifications for silica support particles and conditions for the granulation operation. A basic characterization of the adsorbent prepared from the produced particles was carried out by an adsorption test of simulated high level liquid waste.

Nuclear fuel fabrication process has generated a large amount of wastes contaminated with enriched uranium, and those have been accumulated for long time in Japan. These waste hasn't treated, because there is no protocol to treat and dispose these. Procedure is proposed; 1) Leaching Uranium from the waste, 2) recovering uranium from the leaching solution, 3) treating residue and secondary waste for disposing in the near field region. Temperature swing extraction technology is one of promising methods to recover uranium efficiently. In the technology, uranium ions are extracted by extraction, and complex with ligands are separated by a polymer with reversible hydrophilic-hydrophobic properties. Monoamides can be adopted to the procedure. However suitable structure of monoamide for the technology is unclear. Therefore, for deciding appropriate structure of monoamides, these with different alkyl chain structures were synthesized, and applicability of the extractants were evaluated by solvent extraction and temperature swing extraction experiments. In experiments, Ce(IV) was used as a simulant of U(IV). Three monoamides were synthesized, and solvent extraction experiments and Temperature swing extraction experiments were carried out.

Various types of machine oil are used for analysis and utility equipment, and these organic liquid wastes are stored in nuclear facilities and laboratories. Perfluoro oil, generally used in vacuum pumps, is difficult to decompose because of its chemical stability. In order to achieve complete mineralization of the organic liquid wastes, the application of a subcritical water reaction was examined. In this study, the effect of introducing a functional group into a perfluoro compound on its decomposition performance was experimentally evaluated. First, we carried out the transformation of perfluorohexane to perfluorohexyl iodide or perfluoroheptanoic acid based on reported procedures. Next, laboratory scale batchwise decomposition tests with subcritical water on perfluorohexyl iodide and on perfluoro heptanoic acid were carried out. The decomposition products of each fluorine compound were identified, confirming that subcritical treatment is a promising treatment method.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.05An impregnated silica-based adsorbent was prepared by combining HONTA extractant, Crea extractant, and macroporous silica polymer composite particles (SiO
-P). The performance of platinum-group metals adsorption and separation on prepared (HONTA + Crea)/SiO-P adsorbent was assessed by batch-adsorption and chromatographic separation studies. (HONTA + Crea)/SiO-P adsorbent showed high adsorption performance of Pd(II) owing to an affinity between Pd(II) and Crea extractant based on the Hard and Soft Acids and Bases theory. The chromatographic experiment showed that Pd(II) was recovered entirely from the feed solution using 0.2 M thiourea in 0.1 M HNO
. Possibility of recovery of Zr(IV), Mo(VI), and Re(VII) was also observed using the (HONTA + Crea)/SiO-P adsorbent.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.01(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Treatment of spent scintillation cocktail generated by analysis of radioactivity is one of important tasks for management of nuclear laboratories. This study proposed a procedure consists of adsorption of radioactivity and solidification of residual liquid wastes, and fundamental performance of each step was experimentally tested. Batch-wise adsorption showed excellent adsorption performance of Ni onto silica-based adsorbent, and chelate reaction was suggested as the adsorption mechanism by EXAFS analysis. Alkaline activate material successfully solidified the liquid waste, and TG/DTA and XRD analyses revealed that the organic compounds exist inside the matrix. Only 1% of the loaded organic compounds were leaked from the matrix by a leaching test, and most of the organic compounds should be stably kept inside the matrix.

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：63.33(Instruments & Instrumentation)Spent PUREX solvent, which mainly consists of tributyl phosphate (TBP) and normal dodecane, is generated by solvent extraction of Plutonium and Uranium in the spent nuclear fuel reprocessing. One of the treatment options for storage of the spent solvent is adsorption of the liquid into vermiculite. The organic liquid is considered to be trapped between layers of the vermiculite. Our previous experiments on the adsorption of spent solvent into the vermiculite have shown that some parts of loaded solvent gradually leaked out from the vermiculite. In order to investigate the adsorption mechanism and capacity, elution behavior of the loaded solvent into organic diluents were evaluated. A part of the loaded solvent was easily leaked into the diluent, while some solvent remained inside the particle even after the leaching test. In this study, the adsorption capacity of the vermiculite was evaluated through amount of remaining solvent after washing with diluents. The amount of the remaining solvent was analyzed by Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) on P contained in TBP. Peak intensity of P-K
line depended on the washing condition, and the behavior of the amount of change in adsorbed P atom qualitatively agreed with the results of the leaching test.

The experimental adsorbent comprised SiO particles, a polymer coating, and an TODGA. The particles to be analyzed were subjected to Nd adsorption and an elution operation, but Nd in the adsorbent was found to be uniformly distributed. This might have been caused by individual differences in the amount of impregnated TODGA. The remaining Nd species were not localized to a specific part of the adsorbent after the adsorption operation. Some Nd elements were retained in the adsorbent after elution, probably because of the poor diffusion of the mobile phase inside the adsorbent. An adsorbent having a different microstructure from the first was then evaluated, and rapid elution was observed on new adsorbent along micro-PIXE analysis

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.01(Chemistry, Analytical)Radioactive aqueous and organic liquid wastes contaminated by U are generated by solvent extraction of nuclear fuel materials in experiments of reprocessing technologies. Although incineration and denitrification/conversion processes are promising for treating such liquid waste, the installation of large equipment is essential. To give appropriate treatment procedures for radioactive liquid waste generated in nuclear facilities, STRAD (Systematic Treatments of RAdioactive liquid wastes for Decommissioning) project was started by Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) with several organizations. We are focusing on baker's yeasts for their excellent metal ions adsorption characteristics, easy handling and low prices. In order to optimize adsorption performance and operation procedures as the liquid waste treatment technology, adsorption performance of U has to be precisely investigated. In this study, adsorption performance of U and anion from nitric acid solution was investigated by batch-wise adsorption experiments.
