Times Cited Count：2 Percentile：20.4(Nuclear Science & Technology)The iron phosphate glass (IPG) medium is known to be a high-efficiency glass medium, therefore we try to evaluate its applicability to immobilize sludge bearing radioactive nuclides arising from treatment of contaminated water at the stricken Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. For this study, many physical and chemical properties of target materials are necessary to evaluate the behaviours of IPG medium and its waste forms. Inevitably, it will entail the need for many and varied types of experiments to be carried out under high temperature. It is therefore rational to apply appropriate theoretical analysis first so as to reduce the number of experimental run. For this reason, some necessary thermodynamic values for theoretical analysis were estimated by CALPHAD approach followed by making up the calculated phase diagrams. By comparison with experimental results, they were found to be reliable for evaluating the behaviours of IPG medium and its waste forms.

The great amount of water used for cooling the stricken power reactors at Fukushima Dai-ichi has resulted in accumulation of "remaining water". As the remaining water is subsequently contaminated by FPs, etc., it is necessary to decontaminate it in order to reduce the volume of liquid radioactive waste and to reuse it again for cooling the reactors. Various techniques are being applied to remove FP, etc. and to make stable waste forms. One of the methods using the iron phosphate glass as a medium is being developed to stabilize the strontium-bearing sludge whose main component is BaSO. From the results hitherto, the iron phosphate glass is regarded as a potential medium for the target sludge.

Iron phosphate glass could be used to immobilize the high-level radioactive waste (HLW) and has the possibility to function as a Cs sorpant. However, the glass must endure high temperature from about 350
C, the melting point of LiCl-KCl electrolyte, to 600C, the operational maximum temperature. In this study, we have successfully developed the iron phosphate glasses functioning as Cs sorpant, possessing heat resistance, etc.. To prevent the glass softening at temperature around 600C, alkali metal oxides, alkaline-earth metal oxides, alumina and/or titania were added into the Fe
O
-PO
glass. Through soak experiments of the glasses in molten salt(
LiCl-KCl)containing CsCl, it was found that those glasses immobilize Cs by reacting with CsCl and formed crystal phase of CsFeCl and/or CsFeCl. This Cs sorption function is peculiar to the developed iron phosphate glasses.

The main objective of this development is to recycle the purified eutectic medium of the pyroreprocessing, delaying its disposal for as long as possible. We have introduced the simple filtration method to remove the rare earth element (REE) particles which were formed due to the conversion of REE chlorides to phosphates. Here, the iron phosphate glass is used as a filtration medium for the removal of FP particles. However, some soluble FP such as compounds of alkali-metals, alkaline-earth metals, etc. still remain in the eutectic medium. This time around, on an experimental basis, the iron phosphate glass has been used as a sorbent instead, to remove the soluble FP. We have obtained some positive results and have intention to incorporate it into the spent electrolyte recycle process as a part of the FP separation and immobilization system.

The great amount of water used for cooling the stricken reactors at Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant following the earthquake and tsunami of 11 March 2011 had resulted in accumulation of "remaining water" in some buildings. From public announcements, it seems likely the decontamination process of La Hague reprocessing plant would be employed as one of the treatment processes for the remaining water contaminated by FPs such as Cs, Sr, etc.. Based on literature study, Cs would precipitate with ferrocyanide compound as well as Sr with BaSO by applying the above-mentioned process. In this study, BaSO as the simulated sludge was loaded into the iron phosphate glass (IPG) medium under different melting temperature. Based on the results, the performance of IPG containing BaO (decomposed from BaSO) improved with increase loading of BaO up to 48 mol% at lower melting temperature.

The immobilization method by iron phosphate glass (IPG) medium is one of the candidate techniques for manufacturing waste forms of sludge arising from the treatment of contaminated water at the stricken Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant. In this paper, some thermodynamic values for the theoretical analysis of vitrification were estimated to make up the calculated phase diagrams. These calculated phase diagrams were then compared with experimental results.
