All gloves attached to glove-box in Tokai Reprocessing Plant have a fixed expiration date and have to be replaced every 4-year. However, degrees of glove deterioration are different depending on its usage environment (frequency, chemicals, radiation, etc.), because of rubber products. Therefore, physical properties such as tensile strength, elongation, hardness of gloves are measured, and the life-time of gloves are estimated. As a result, gloves without any defects in its appearance have enough physical property for acceptance criteria of new glove. The extrapolated physical property of glove is sufficiently larger than the reported values of damaged glove. No deterioration in physical properties of gloves, that are periodically replaced without any defects in its appearance, is observed and the usable life-time of the glove is estimated to be 8 years.

Times Cited Count:9 Percentile:65.39(Plant Sciences)Rice () plants have porous or hollow organs consisting of aerenchyma, which is presumed to function as a low-resistance diffusion pathway for air to travel from the foliage above the water to submerged organs. However, gas movement in rice plants has yet to be visualized in real time. In this study involving partially submerged rice plants, the leaves emerging from the water were fed nitrogen-13-labeled nitrogen ([N]N) tracer gas, and the gas movement downward along the leaf blade, leaf sheath, and internode over time was monitored.

Times Cited Count:12 Percentile:76.93(Plant Sciences)In this study, C-photosynthate translocation into strawberry fruits in individual plants was visualized non-invasively and repeatedly using a positron emission tracer imaging system (PETIS) to assess the spatiotemporal variability in the translocation dynamics in response to increasing daylight integrals. This is the first study to use C-radioisotopes to clarify the spatiotemporal variability in photosynthate translocation from source leaves to individual sink fruits in vivo in response to increasing daylight integrals at a high spatiotemporal resolution.

Times Cited Count:11 Percentile:59.51(Multidisciplinary Sciences)The release of rhizodeposits differs depending on the root position and is closely related to the assimilated carbon (C) supply. Therefore, quantifying the C partitioning over a short period may provide crucial information for clarifying root-soil carbon metabolism. A non-invasive method for visualising the translocation of recently assimilated C into the root system inside the rhizobox was established using CO labelling and the positron-emitting tracer imaging system. The spatial distribution of recent C-photoassimilates translocated and released in the root system and soil were visualised for white lupin () and soybean (). Our method enabled the quantification of the spatial C allocations in roots and soil, which may help to elucidate the relationship between C metabolism and nutrient cycling at specific locations of the root-soil system in response to environmental conditions over relatively short periods.

Times Cited Count:6 Percentile:55.67(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)Accurate analysis of N fixation in leguminous crops requires determination of N utilization within an intact plant however, most approaches require tissue disassembly. We developed a simple and rapid technique to generate high-purity and high-yield [N]N gas and obtained real-time images of N fixation in an intact soybean plant. The purification efficiency was 81.6% after decay correction.

Highly active liquid waste, which is generated by the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel, is stored in storage tank of Tokai Reprocessing Plant until it is vitrified. The waste solution in the tank is periodically agitated to avoid the precipitation of insoluble residues during the storage. Three way valves and ball valves have been located at the tank for agitation. Radiation dose rate at the valve location is high and operator's radiation exposure become a problem. Therefore, measures to reduce radiation exposure are performed and reported in this presentation.

The pulse filter used by the dissolution and clarification process of the Tokai Reprocessing Plant uses the sintering metal powder filter. As for the sintering metal powder filter, being jammed is easy to occur by sludge. The basic examination of the sintering laminating wire mesh filter for the sintering metal powder filter was carried out.

The pulse filter of the clarification process used the sintered metal powder filter at Tokai reprocessing plant. It is known that the sintered metal powder filter is easy to be clogged up by sludge. Therefore, we examined the filtration performance of the sintered laminated wire mesh filter which might substitute for the sintered metal powder filter.

We inserted a newly designed and manufactured thruster into the guide tube of the high active liquid waste storage cell for inspection in the Tokai Reprocessing Plant and measured the dose rate inside the cell. The dose rate distribution measurements using thruster is an unprecedented experiment, we checked job safety, operability of an equipment and relationship between insert distance of dosimeter and measurement position by using isometric scale mock-up equipment in advance. As a result, we implemented dose rate distribution measurement test inside the cell.

High active liquid waste (HAW) of about 340 m is stored in the HAW tanks at the Tokai Reprocessing Plant. However there is no effective observation method inside the cell installing the HAW tank since no one can enter because of its high dose rate. This time, by utilizing the existing guide rail, design and manufacture of the new device for observation, optimization of the device by mockup, inside the cell observation and dose rate distribution measurement inside the cell were conducted. As the result, we were succeeded in observation of the HAW tank and measurement of the dose rate distribution inside the cell for the first time. Here we report the results of those approaches.

In this study, we developed a new method to visualize and evaluate the movement of C-photosynthates into the root system and 11C-rhizodeposits released in the soil coupled with positional information using the positron-emitting tracer imaging system. A newly developed rhizobox was consisted of a square nylon mesh bag containing the root system and a pair of soil boxes, and it could be distinguishing the C signal of soil from that of root. Test plants of white lupin (Lupinus albus) and soybean (Glycine max) were grown in the rhizobox, and fed CO as a pulse. Simultaneously, the behavior of 11C-photosynthates into the root system and the distribution of C-rhizodeposits released in the rhizosphere soil were visualized.
