被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:100(Instruments & Instrumentation)Used PUREX process solvent generated from reprocessing process of spent nuclear fuel contains a small amount of U and Pu complexed with tributyl phosphate (TBP) or dibutyl phosphate (DBP). The radioactive nuclides should be removed from the solvent for safety storage or disposal. The iminodiacetic acid (IDA) type chelating resin was proposed as promising procedures for efficient recovery of the trapped cations in the solvent. In order to reveal the distribution and amount of Zr in the particle and local structure of Zr complex formed in the adsorbent, PIXE and EXAFS analyses on the Zr adsorbed chelating resin were carried out. Micro-PIXE analysis proved that it is an effectual method for quantitative analysis of trace adsorbed elements. Moreover, some of the adsorption sites were possibly occupied by the molecules. On the other hand, Zr-K edge EXAFS analysis suggested that extraction mechanism of Zr from the aqueous solution and the solvent was different.

Radioactive spent solvent waste contains U and Pu is generated from reprocessing process of spent nuclear fuel. The nuclear materials should be removed from the solvent for safety storage or disposal. We are focusing on the nuclear materials recovery from spent solvent using imino diacetic acid (IDA) type chelating resin as a promising method. In order to reveal adsorbed amount of Zr, which is simulated of Pu, Micro-Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) was carried out. Micro-PIXE analysis succeeded in quantitative analysis on trace amount of adsorbed Zr from simulated spent solvent.

(2-ethylhexyl) hydrogen phosphate (HDEHP) extractants for trivalent minor actinide recovery was modified to improve column separation performance. Excellent trivalent minor actinides recovery performance was obtained by column separation experiments on nitric acid solution containing the trivalent minor actinides and representative fission product elements, i.e. recovery yields
93% with sufficient decontamination factors against the fission products. Those are the best performance which we have ever obtained by experiments inside hot cell.

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:100(Nuclear Science & Technology)A new collaborative research project for systematic treatments of radioactive liquid wastes containing various reagents generating in nuclear facilities was started from 2018 initiated by Japan Atomic Energy Agency. The project was named as STRAD (Systematic Treatments of RAdioactive liquid wastes for Decommissioning) project. Tentative targets to be studied under the project are aqueous and organic liquid wastes which have been generated by experiments and analyses in a reprocessing experimental laboratory of JAEA. Currently fundamental studies for treatments of the liquid wastes with complicated compositions are underway. In the STRAD project, process flow for treatment of ammonium ion involved in aqueous waste was designed though the inactive experiments, and decomposition of ammonium ion using catalysis will be carried out soon. Adsorbents for recovery of U and Pu from spent solvent were also developed. Demonstration experiments on genuine spent solvent is under planning.

Chemical Processing Facility of Japan Atomic Energy Agency is a basic research field for advanced back-end technology developments with using actual high-level radioactive materials. Most of them were treated properly and stored in the liquid waste vessel, but some were not treated and remained at the experimental space as a kind of legacy nuclear waste, which we must treat in safety and dispose if we continue research activities in the facility. Under this circumstance, we launched a collaborative research project called the STRAD project, which stands for Systematic Treatment of Radioactive liquid waste for Decommissioning, in order to develop the treatment processes for wastes of the nuclear research facility. In this project, decomposition methods of certain chemicals, which have been directly solidified without safety pretreatment but may cause a troublesome phenomenon, is developing and a prospect that it will be able to decompose in the facility by simple method. And solidification of aqueous or organic liquid wastes after the decomposition has been studied by adding cement or coagulants. Furthermore, we treated experimental tools of various materials with making an effort to stabilize and to compact them before the package into the waste container. It is expected to decrease the number of transportation of the solid waste and widen the operation space. The project is expected to contribute beneficial waste management outcome that can be shared world widely.

塩化物イオン(Cl)を含む放射性廃液は、乾式再処理のプロセス制御における化学分析によって生成される。この廃液を海洋に排出するためには、Clを分離してU, Puを回収する必要がある。本研究では、AgCl沈殿法と抽出クロマトグラフィー法を組み合わせてClを分離し、U, Puを回収した。沈殿試験の結果、UおよびPuが試験後に共沈しないことが分かった。固相抽出試験の結果、95%のPuが液体廃棄物から回収されたことがわかった。Uの濃度が十分でないため、Uについての放射能を分析することは困難であった。これらの結果は、これらのプロセスが廃液を海に排出する可能性を有することを示した。

Clogging of the extraction chromatography column caused by inflow of insoluble residue into the bed possible to lead accumulation of decay heat and explosive gas inside the bed. Behavior of small particle is necessary to be investigated to prevent hazardous events. In this study, influence of fine particles contained in the feed solution on the clogging and on separation performance of the bed were evaluated by laboratory scale experiments. Discharging operation of the simulated particles from the bed was experimentally demonstrated using an engineering scale system. The particles were accumulated on top of the bed and hardly come inside the bed. Backwashing operation was effective to discharge a part of the accumulated powder. Supplying water into the column with normal flow rate condition was possible after the short time backwashing operation. Backwashing with cold water as a normal operation must be one of the most appropriate countermeasures for preventing from the clogging.

被引用回数:3 パーセンタイル:6.3Insoluble sludge is generated in reprocessing process. Actual sludge data, which had been obtained from the dissolution experiments of irradiated fuel of fast reactor "Joyo" were reevaluated especially from the view point of the characterization of sludge. The yields of sludge were calculated from the weight and there were less than 1%. Element concentrations of sludge were analyzed after decomposing by alkaline fusion. As the results, molybdenum, technetium, ruthenium, rhodium and palladium accounted for mostly of the sludge. From their chemical compositions and structure analyzed by XRD show good agree that main component of sludge is MoRu
RhPdTc regardless of the experimental condition. At the condition of reprocessing fast breeder fuel, it is indicated that molybdenum and zirconium in dissolved solution is low, therefore zirconium molybdate hydrate may not produce abundant amount in the process.

In the extraction chromatography system, accumulation of hydrogen gas in the chromatography column is suspected to lead to fire or explosion. In order to prevent the hazardous accidents, it is necessary to evaluate behaviors of gas radiolytically generated inside the column. In this study, behaviors of gas inside the extraction chromatography column were investigated through experiments and Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation. N gas once accumulated as bubbles in the packed bed was hardly discharged by the flow of mobile phase. However, the CFD simulation and X-ray imaging on
-ray irradiated column revealed that during operation the hydrogen gas generated in the column was dissolved into the mobile phase without accumulation and discharged.

The water in the spent fuel pools at TEPCO Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station contains sea water and rubbles. When the spent fuels stored in the pools will be reprocessed, it has possibility that these contaminants enter the reprocessing process with the spent fuels. Therefore it is meaningful to estimate the influence of contaminants on reprocessing process in advance. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the behavior and influence of contaminants on the extraction process of spent fuel reprocessing by using simulated contaminants. Contaminants were dissolved into the heated nitric acid and solvent extraction using TBP was performed to obtain distribution ratios. The estimated amount of contaminants accompanied with the spent fuel is low values and solvent extraction tests showed that the distribution ratios of every major element were very low in any case. Also to evaluate the influence of sulfate and chloride ions on uranium and plutonium extraction, Ce(IV) was used for simulated Pu to predict extraction behavior. And then U and Pu test was conducted in order to confirm the simulated test result. Obtained distribution ratio suggests that contaminants will not affect the extraction process.

The radioactive contaminated water has accumulated at Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station after the severe damage by the events accompanying the earthquake and tsunami. The concentration of Ca in the accumulated water is higher than that of Sr. Because of their chemical similarity, the secondary radioactive waste from Sr decontamination process will contains Ca more than Sr. Therefore, the volume of the secondary waste will increase more unnecessarily. Three kinds of Sr adsorbents; SW-KAZLS, the Hydrous titanic acid and SrTreat,were characterized and assessed from the viewpoint of Sr decontamination for radioactive contaminated water. The amount of Sr in SW-KAZLS showed the highest Sr selectivity. Since the Hydrous titanic acid was the hardest adsorbent of three, it is applied well to adsorption tower. The amount of Sr in SrTreat was favorable, and it could be applied to decontamination for the radioactive contaminated water of low Sr concentration.
