Steam reforming system has been developed for the treatment of organic wastes which are not suitable materials (halogenated oil) for the incineration due to generation of corrosive compounds and plugging materials. The refractory material is cast inside the main reactor, which is a part of the steam reforming system. Since the surface of this refractory material has deteriorated over time, the main reactor was replaced. If the refractory material surface of the used main reactor can be repaired, the used main reactor can be reused as a spare. The refractory material surface was repaired using two types of repair materials ("S" and "P"). Combustion tests were conducted on samples simulating organic wastes to evaluate each repair material. As a result of the combustion test, it was concluded that the repair of the main reactor was possible to use the repair material "P" because no cracks or flakes were observed.

Steam reforming method has been developed for the treatment of organic wastes which are not suitable materials (halogenated oil) for the incineration. This method consists of the gasification process in which organics are vaporized and decomposed with superheated steam and the oxidation process in which vaporized organics are decomposed by oxidizing reaction with heated air. In the gasification process, nonvolatile radionuclides are separated from vaporized waste. Therefore it can be expected that treatment of liquid waste generated from an off-gas treatment system and maintenance operation of the off-gas treatment system become easy to perform. 1,500L of waste oil contaminated with halogen, solvent and uranium was treated using the demonstration scale steam reforming system to examine the performance of the system in 2018. Results obtained this study were as follows; (1) The temperature in the steam reforming system was controlled under the self-regulation temperature. (2) The concentration of CO and NO in the off-gas were controlled less than 100 ppm and 250 ppm respectively. (3) The gasification ratio of waste oil was more than 99%. (4) Concentration of fluorine oil in waste oil is needed to be less than 20wt% to perform stable continuance treatment.

We present the inverse slope parameter, mean transverse momentum, and yield per unit rapidity at each energy, and compare them to other measurements at different collisions. We also present the scaling properties such as and scaling and discuss the mechanism of the particle production in collisions. The measured spectra are compared to next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations.

Times Cited Count:9 Percentile:52.86(Physics, Nuclear)Measurements of electrons from the decay of open-heavy-flavor mesons have shown that the yields are suppressed in Au+Au collisions compared to expectations from binary-scaled collisions. Here we extend these studies to two particle correlations where one particle is an electron from the decay of a heavy flavor meson and the other is a charged hadron from either the decay of the heavy meson or from jet fragmentation. These measurements provide more detailed information about the interaction between heavy quarks and the quark-gluon matter. We find the away-side-jet shape and yield to be modified in Au+Au collisions compared to collisions.

The spectral shapes of all hadron transverse momentum distributions are well described by a Tsallis distribution functional form with only two parameters, and , determining the high and characterizing the low regions for the spectra, respectively. The integrated invariant cross sections calculated from the fitted distributions are found to be consistent with existing measurements and with statistical model predictions.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has been developing a steam reforming system and equipment for the treatment of difficult-to-treat organic liquid wastes. The main reactor, which is a main component of the treatment system, has a refractory material on the inner surface. Cracks and flakes were observed on the surface of the refractory material due to age-related deterioration. Therefore, we repaired the deteriorated refractory material surfaces using two types of repair materials and conducted combustion tests on simulated samples to evaluate each repair material. After the combustion test, we concluded that the repair of the main reactor using the repair materials was possible, since there were no cracks or flakes of repair materials.

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has been developing a steam reforming system and equipment for the treatment of difficult-to-treat organic liquid wastes. In the continuous treatment of fluorine oil, soot generated during fluorine oil decomposition clogs the exhaust filter and causes unstable combustion. The influence of soot was evaluated by conducting treatment tests using the mixing ratio of fluorine oil and auxiliary fuel as parameters and checking the effect of decomposition temperature. As a result, the filter was not blocked at fluorine oil concentrations up to 20%, and increasing the decomposition temperature burns off the soot and reduces the blockage of the filter. The effects of equipment corrosion due to long-term continuous processing were also identified as an issue.
