Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Environmental Sciences)In the decommissioning of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS, 1F), workers are removing structures from inside the buildings, monitoring radioactive contamination, and decontaminating inside the buildings. For the measurement of contamination of suit surfaces of workers, we have developed a hand-held survey meter that can measure and visualize surface radioactive contamination of -nuclides in a high 
/ 
-ray background environment. In order to selectively measure -nuclides, we designed and built a prototype hand-held survey meter for -rays, which consists of a thin-film ZnS:Ag scintillator, a multi-anode photomultiplier tube (MA-PMT), individual amplification and counting circuits for each channel of the MA-PMT. Based on the result of -ray counting, the developed device is capable of counting the -radiation beyond 2.1
10
cpm. In the -ray response test, there was no -ray response even when the detector was in close proximity to a high intensity source; The dose rate was estimated to be more than 1 Sv/h. In the future, we plan to reduce the weight and size of the device, as well as improve the usability of the device through actual testing in contaminated environments.

HTTR has newly assumed Beyond Design Basis Accident (BDBA) as part of conformity assessment with the new regulatory standards and has established measures to prevent the spread of BDBA. Among these measures, to prevent the spread of BDBA caused by cooling water leaks from spent fuel storage pool, the Oarai Research Institute's fire engine was selected as an equipment to prevent the spread of BDBA, and required performances such as pumping water performance were determined. After all required performances were confirmed by inspections, the fire engine passed the operator's pre-use inspection and contributed to the restart of the HTTR operations.

In Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory Project, hydraulic tests for the excavation damaged zone have been performed in order to characterize the hydrological properties of the zone. In PB-V01 borehole, pore pressure observation started in October 2008, but the pore pressure is currently reduced by about 3 MPa compared to that time. In this report, in order to evaluate the influence that this pore pressure drop has on the permeability of the rock, the results of the in-situ permeability test using the long-term hydraulic pressure monitoring device installed in the same hole are summarized.

As fundamental research for separation of platinum group metals (PGMs) from high level liquid waste (HLLW) by macroporous silica-based adsorbent, (MOTDGA-TOA)/SiO-P adsorbent was prepared by impregnation of N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-di-noctyl-thiodiglycolamide (MOTDGA) and Tri-n-octylamine (TOA) into silica/polymer composite support (SiO-P). The adsorption behavior of Ru(III), Rh(III), and Pd(II) in simulated HLLW onto the adsorbent were investigated by the batch method to obtain their corresponding equilibrium and kinetic data. The adsorbent showed strong adsorption for Pd(II) and the adsorption reached equilibrium within 2 hr. In addition, the use of both MOTDGA and TOA improved adsorption of Ru(III) and Rh(III) better than individual use of them. The adsorptions of Ru(III), Rh(III), and Pd(II) followed the Langmuir adsorption model, and were found to be controlled by the chemisorption mechanism.

A criticality accident alarm system (CAAS) was installed in the 1980s as part of criticality safety management at the Tokai Reprocessing Plant (TRP) to reduce the chance of workers being exposed to radiation in the rare case of a criticality accident. From a compliance point of view processing at TRP cannot take place without the criticality monitoring provided by the CAAS. This paper gives an overview of the process of the CAAS being replaced as part of aging management.

To continue the utilization of the nuclear fission energy, the management of the high-level radioactive waste is one of the most important issues to be solved. Partitioning and Transmutation technology is expected to be effective to mitigate the burden of the HLW disposal by reducing the radiological toxicity and heat generation. JAEA has been conducting R&D on the MA separation process to remove of MA from HLW and supply the recovered MA to the transmutation system such as ADS. The MA separation process contains three steps. For An(III)+RE recovery process, we developed TDdDGA which has very high performance to recover of MA from high level waste. HONTA and ADAAM were developed for An(III)/RE separation process and Am/Cm separation process respectively. All extractants satisfy CHON principle to minimization of the secondary waste from the process. The separation performances of the flowsheets were evaluated by continuous extraction tests using simulated and genuine high level liquid waste.

Radioactive particles were released into the environment by the accident of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP). They have information to understand the inside of the reactor during the accident. Now, nobody knows the generation process of radioactive particles. In this study, we analyzed (1) elements of particles' cross section with SEM-EDS to reveal what is the material and (2) chemical states of elements on particles' surface with HAXPES. (1) Radioactive particles are composed of the two parts. One is the basic material and the other is the heavy elemental materials. We considered the basic material was soda-lime glass and the heavy elemental materials included lead glass. (2) HAXPES brought out that the chemical states of Cs on particles, surface was different in the Na-poor areas and the Na-rich areas. In the Na-poor areas, the chemical state of Cs showed CsFeSiO
mainly, but zero valence partly. In the Na-rich areas, the chemical state of Cs couldn't be identified. For above analyses, we can reveal the generation process of radioactive particles.
