On March 11, 2011, a severe nuclear accident occurred at Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO)'s Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (hereinafter called as F1). After the accident, the Council for the Decommissioning was established, mainly by the government and TEPCO, and a road map for the F1 decommissioning was drawn up. In the road map, the fuel debris removal from the reactors is scheduled to launch around 2020. In this study, the characteristics and technological issues of each potential treatment scenario were extracted, and the scenarios were prioritized in advance of formal evaluations in the future. The preliminary evaluation results show that long term storage and direct disposal have more positive aspects in terms of economic efficiency and radioactive waste generation. On the other hand, stabilizing processing, aqueous processing, and pyrochemical processing have been estimated to have more disadvantages in such aspects.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:6.16(Engineering, Chemical)The influence of HNO concentration in the solution on the formation of CsPu(NO) was evaluated in the U crystallization process. The solubility of CsPu(NO) in a uranyl nitrate solution was found to decrease with increasing HNO concentration in the solution. In the U crystallization experiments with the dissolver solution of irradiated fast reactor fuel, CsPu(NO) formed with 6.5 mol/dm HNO concentration in the mother liquor, and the decontamination factor of Cs for the uranyl nitrate hexahydrate crystals was low. Meanwhile, CsPu(NO) did not precipitate with uranyl nitrate hexahydrate crystals under the condition of 4.0 mol/dm HNO concentration in the mother liquor, and Cs could be separated from the uranyl nitrate hexahydrate crystals.

In terms of preventing the formation of Pu and Cs compound, Cs in the feed solution should decrease in the U crystallization process. In order to separate Cs contained within irradiated nuclear fuel, the immersion experiments were carried out with the pure water and diluted HNO solution. The elusion ratio of Cs within the powdered fuel in the pure water and 0.1 mol/dm HNO solution after 67 h was 33.8 and 38.3%, respectively. The experimental results suggest a possible beneficial effect of Cs elusion by immersion of the powdered fuel in the pure water and diluted HNO solution before the fuel dissolution process.

As a part of FaCT project, Japan Atomic Energy Agency has been developing a U crystallization process for advanced aqueous reprocessing technology in collaboration with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation. We have carried out experimental studies and obtained fundamental data. Continuous operation tests were also carried out by an engineering-scale crystallizer to confirm productivity of the equipment and to investigate non-steady state conditions. The requirements for the U crystallization process in the FaCT project could be achieved except DF of Cs. More detail investigation is under way to settle the process condition without Pu-Cs double salt formation.

Main process of actinides co-extraction system with direct extraction process using supercritical fluid was designed. The improvement effect of the cost performance was small because multiple lines were needed about main process. But we got the evaluation result that it is possible to reduce substantially about waste liquid treatment. Based on the result, the improvement which uses supercritical fluid for partitioning was gathered.

A part of study on the management of fuel debris in unit 1-3 at Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station, it is suggested that solubilization of fuel debris for nitric acid by solution treatment with UO. It was experimentally confirmed that this process made insoluble (U,Zr)O, one of the major components, be dissoluble.
