Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Instruments & Instrumentation)Ningyo-toge is the uranium mine that has been operated in Japan. Various radioactive elements such as Uranium (U), and Radium (Ra) are still present in the mine ground water with very small amount, and behavior of those elements is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the composition of metal oxides and clay minerals in a soil of slag deposit at the mine, and systematics of adsorption structure of various ions were examined. Identifying the composition and chemical forms of minerals present in the soil of slag can provide useful information for the safety assessment and evaluation of influence on the surrounding environment.

An extraction chromatography method has been studied to recover minor actinides from high-level liquid waste. For effective elution of minor actinides in an adsorbent, the structures of complexes are attempted to be evaluated with ion beam induced luminescence. In this study, Eu complexes in the adsorbent were irradiated by Ar ion beam, and the ion beam induced luminescence spectra of Eu complexes were measured to evaluate the structures of Eu complexes.

Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:89.01(Instruments & Instrumentation)The structures of Eu complexes in the adsorbents prepared with various extractants were evaluated by ion beam induced luminescence analysis in an extraction chromatography for minor actinides recovery. The luminescence of Eu was measured with a proton beam obtained from the single-ended accelerator and an argon ion beam obtained from the azimuthally varying field cyclotron in Takasaki Ion Accelerators for Advanced Radiation Application in National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology. In this study, it was confirmed that the spectral shape of Eu complexes in the adsorbents varied depending on the kinds of extractants, and the correlation between the change in the spectra and the structures of Eu complexes was investigated.

In an extraction chromatography method for minor actinides recovery, analysis for the structure of complex in a silica-based adsorbent has been studied to separate minor actinides efficiently. In this study, Eu was used as simulated material of minor actinides, and silica-based adsorbents containing Eu complex were prepared. The ion beam induced luminescence spectra of Eu complexes in silica-based adsorbents were measured, and the basic data for the structures of Eu complexes were obtained.

The spent PUREX solvent containing U and Pu is generated from the reprocessing process of spent nuclear fuel. The nuclear material removal is important for the safe storage or disposal of the spent solvent. Our previous study revealed that the adsorbent with the iminodiacetic acid (IDA) functional group is one of the most promising materials for designing the nuclear material recovery process. Accordingly, an IDA-type adsorbent was synthesized by using graft polymerization technology or a chemical reaction to improve the adsorption rate and capacity. The synthesized IDA-type adsorbent was characterized by micro particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analyses. The micro-PIXE analysis revealed that Zr was adsorbed on the whole synthesized adsorbents and quantified the microamount of adsorbed Zr. Moreover, EXAFS suggested that Zr in the aqueous solution and solvent can be trapped by the IDA group with different mechanisms.

In order to develop an analysis technique of penetrated Cs into concrete, the concentration of penetrated Cs into bulk concretes and bulk mortars were quantitatively analyzed using PIXE. The difference of penetration depth between concretes and mortars, which has been observed also in the Cs penetration tests using more high-concentration Cs solutions, was observed. These results showed the applicability of PIXE to the quantitative analyses of low-concentration Cs in bulk samples.

We have started the fundamental research on detailed aerosol deposition phenomena at the walls of containment vessel and reactor building to develop a reasonable evaluation model of aerosol deposition amount which have a large influence on release amount to the environment. In this study, an aerosol deposition test onto various materials was conducted to investigate the physical and chemical phenomena related to aerosol deposition. As a result, important phenomena such as aerosol penetration into concrete pore were observed, which should be considered in the aerosol deposition model.
