Times Cited Count:9 Percentile:70.65(Nuclear Science & Technology)Emphasis has been placed on the behavior of ruthenium (Ru) in the evaporation to dryness accident due to the loss of cooling functions (EDLCF) of high-level liquid waste in fuel reprocessing plants. It is because Ru would form volatile compounds such as ruthenium tetroxide (RuO) and could be released into the environment with other coexisting gasses such as nitric acid (HNO), water (HO). To contribute to the safety evaluation of this accident, we experimentally evaluated the decomposition and chemical change behavior of the gaseous RuO (RuO(g)) under the various atmospheric conditions: temperature and composition of coexisting gasses. As a result, the behavior of the RuO(g) was diverse depending on the atmospheric conditions. In the experiments with the dry air or HO vapor, decomposition of RuO(g) was observed. In the experiment with the mixed gas which containing HNO, almost no decomposition of the RuO(g) was observed, and chemical form of the RuO(g) was retained.

The spent fuel stored in the storage pools at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant of Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, Inc. is exposed with the environment containing seawater components, owing to the injection of seawater into the storage pools. Therefore, during reprocessing, it is expected that the spent fuel will be contaminated with seawater components, and the influence of seawater on reprocessing needs to be investigated. We conducted the corrosion tests of the HAW storage tanks under -ray irradiation, and revealed that no significant effect of seawater components was emerged.
