The vaporizer in extinguishing of Large Equipment Dismantling Facility (LEDF)that cost is considering as a plan to cut down as part of a rationalization design highly. When the vaporizer is deleted, it becomes here where liquefied carbon dioxide is emitted in the direct cell, it is necessary to grasp the action and extinguishing performance of the pressure change in the cell by rapid evaporation test of the emitted liquefied carbon dioxide. So pressure action inside the fire laboratory in liquefied carbon dioxide release and a putting out the fire tests due to the combustion time of the combustible were enforced by using the general fire laboratory with Demonstration Test on Extinguishing of the cell (I) in the llth year of Heisei. However, since these tests are after laboratory without airtightness, it needs to grasp the pressure action at the time of liquefied carbon dioxide discharge under the airtight high conditions of having assumed the still more nearly actual cell. The cell (II) Demonstration Test on Extinguishing using the vessel of Sodium Leak Fire and Aerosol test rig (SOLFA-2) container inside of OEC was carried out. The results were as follows. (1)In order to grasp the pressure action of the vessel, the internal pressure of SOLFA-2 was set as -50mmH
O, and emitted liquefied carbon dioxide. Consequently, the tendency for the pressure in the vessel to descend rapidly immediately after liquefied carbon dioxide discharge, and to descend gently-sloping through the process which goes up gradually after that and goes abruptly up for a short time was seen. (2)The process which goes abruptly up in an above-mentioned short time is considered to be the factors with main what some liquefied carbon dioxide emitted in the vessel changed to dry ice, and was deposited taken and sublimating surrounding heat, and evaporating again. (3)It sets to total flooding system and the average minimum temperature in the vessel becomes about -48
C, and at ...

In order to rationalize for Large Equipment Dismantling Facility (LEDF), the plan of removing vaporizer belong to Cell-fire-extinguishing-system was investigated. When a vaporizer is cut down, It is necessary to grasp a fire-extinguishing performance. The fire-extinguishing performance check examination by liquefaction carbon dioxide in the cell fire-extinguishing examination (I) was carried out in 1999 fiscal year. As the result, The good performance was obtained to polyethylene. But there was the deep-seated fire about a piece of wood. Then, The check items were carbon dioxide (CO) concentration and CO concentration holding time for the deep-seated fire in the cell fire-extinguishing examination (III). The results were as follows; (1)By use of the combustion model in which a piece of wood and cotton were put is lit, temperature inside model, mass reduction, and combustion situation were examined. The model burned remarkably in 30
60 min. The peak temperature rise to 680 C(MAX), and attained smoldering after (ignition) 70 min. Moreover, in order to determine the generating conditions of a deep-seated fire, the situation of CO extinguishing after ignition by the time lag of 5090 min were examined. The model around ignition 50 minutes was the most difficult to extinguish, and it turned out that they are the conditions which were most suitable for the deep-seated fire examination model of an exam. (2)In order to decide on CO concentration and concentration holding time required for fire extinguishing of the deep-seated fire in LEDF, The fire-extinguishing performance was investigated by 40 65% of CO concentration. Consequently, CO concentration required for deep-seated fire extinguishing was understood that 60% or more was required when safety was taken into consideration at 50% or more. Moreover, when it was 50% or more of CO concentration and the holding time of CO concentration ...

Construction of LEDF (Large Equipment Dismantling Facility) is being planned by Waste Management Section. This purpose of LEDF is the melting treatment of the radioactive waste in OEC (O-arai Engineering Center) and the waste package in JAERI (O-arai Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute). It is also considered about the disposal plan of the future. Therefore LEDF has the sorting process of waste because of the removal of problematic substances. But that process is conducted using its human eyes. This process needs automatic operation because of high classification accuracy, high reliability, burden reduction of a worker. Then we select EXFS (Energy dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer), and conducted the measurement of waste (a sample) with this device. That purpose is to confirm an application as the sorting device. A confirmation result is shown in the following. (1)Sorting performance Measurement is possible without pretreatment, if it is metal. However, sorting is difficult when paint, plating, impurities, etc. are shown in the surface. (2)Measurement position It is necessary to set a gap of the measurement thing from a measurement position to 4㎜ or less. (3)Radiation influence Because the background had risen by the influence of a radiant ray, the distinction of Fluorescence X-ray became difficult. Therefore the distinction of materials became impossible. Aluminum is influenced specially by it. As a conclusion, the application nature of EXFS thing Sorting System is high. But there is a bad influence by radiation. Therefore, difficult is installation into the cell. In order to apply EXFS to LEDF, it is necessary to place it outside the cell and to use as the help of the visual inspection.

In order to rationalize for Large Equipment Dismantling Facility (LEDF), the plan of removing vaporizer belong to Cell-fire-extinguishing-system was investigated. In this test, in order to study the behavior of pressure in cell, when the liquefaction carbon dioxide (liq-CO) is emitted, and the performanee of extinguishing fires, the test of behavior of pressure and the extinguishing fires take effect. Also the extinguishing fires test used water-mist take effect for complement liq-CO. The results as follows; (1)In the test of behavior of pressure, Liq-CO was emitted test room under -40mmAq negative pressure. Room pressure was increase about 0.8mmAq/sec at first. After 29sec, the pressure was increase slowly about 0.1mmAq/sec. After 120sec, the increase was drastic about 1.5mmAq/s. (2)In the test of extinguishing fires by liq-CO, under -40mmAq, Polyethylene and wooden chips + cotton (crib) was burn. Polyethylene was extinguished perfectly, but the embers remained in cribs. While the room pressure was increase about 1.3mmAq/sec for 10sec at first. After 30 sec, the pressure was increase about 1mmAq/sec. On the other hand, the drastic increase of pressure disappeared between 100sec to 120sec by change the nozzle size from 14mm
to 10mm. (3)In the test of extinguishing fires by water-mist, Cribs was extinguished perfectly, but Polyethylene was extinguished difficulty under the same condition of liq-CO test. (4)Therefore the results, It's coped with the fire extinguishing and the keeping negative pressure for LEDF cells. Therefore nozzle size is fitted cell volume as changing 14mm to 10mm. (5)As the performance of extinguishing fires by liq-CO, It is necessity the concentration of above 50% CO for combustibles as cribs, remaining the embers. (6)On the other hand, It is necessity most study for the adoption of water-mist. Therefore water-mist was not effective for polyethylene, and it needed water ...

Construction of LEDF (Large equipment dismantling facility) which has the in-can type incineration-melting furnace is planned. The in-can type incineration-melting furnace performs incineration and melting solidification of radioactive waste within the canister made from ceramics, and is characterized by discarding the canister. On the other hand, as for this furnace, the amount of incineration is restrained to canister capacity, Therefore, how to repeat incineration and melting can be considered as a method of increasing the amount of incineration. However, we were anxious about the contact time of the melt and a canister extending, the amount of wear of canister base material increasing, or the heat load (heat cycle) to a canister increasing, and the material intensity of canister base material falling, in order that this method may repeat incineration and melting. then, the tests used imitation waste, are the conditions which repeat (1,3, 10 bathes) the incineration temperature of 1000 C, and the melt temperature of 1500 C, and investigated change of the amount of wear of canister base material and high temperature bend strength. The result is as follows. (1) The amount of wear of canister base material was 0.09 mm/h at the maximum. This result was a sufficiently few value, even if compared with the conventional result (1.0 mm/h). Moreover, the high temperature bend strength of canister base material is about 3 Mpa on an average, and change was seen before and after the examination to which heat load is applied. (2) These tests showed that the factor which spoils the soundness of a canister was oxidization degradation of the canister base material by peeling from the base material of Glaze (glass coating material). The portion embrittlement by oxidization degradation is locally worn down by contact of the melt. (3)Heat-resistant temperature of Glaze is about 1300 C. At the melting operation temperature of 1500 C, and ...

High-time resolution measurements of the major and trace inorganic elements, such as Rb and Sr, from the Lake Baikal sediment core was carried out to estimate the weathering response and the material provenance in the lake watershed. The fluctuations of the Rb/Sr ratio and mean grain size (MGS) during the Holocene were corresponding with each other. The similar profiles between the Rb/Sr ratio and the MGS from loess sediment in China have been observed in previous study. These results imply that the Rb/Sr ratio can be used as the proxy to estimate the East Asian winter monsoon intensity.
