The combustible and flame-retardant radioactive wastes generated as a result of the research activities in Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) are incinerating to reduce their volume. The incinerated ash is planned to be solidified using cement for disposal. Since the properties of ashes generated in each institute of JAEA are varied with the type of incinerator and the wastes to be incinerated, it is necessary to do fundamental solidification tests in each institute to decide operating conditions of the planning cement solidification facility. It is important to standardize evaluating methods of cement and solidified waste because some characters depend on measuring method. This user's guide have been prepared how to decide the cement solidifying conditions of ash to design the cement solidification facility in JAEA. Requirements on the regulations of solidified radioactive waste have been examined and seven technical criteria, e.g. compressive strength, fluidity, have been selected as characters to be evaluated. Some empirical notes about selection of cement, admixtures, procedure on making a test piece, evaluation of expanding, compressive strength, solubility have been described. The strategy of tests and tips for finding optimized solidification condition has been summarized. Finally the example of optimized conditions satisfied the requirements and some problems to be solved have been described.

Radioactive fallout cesium in sewage sludge ash produced after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident

Kozai, Naofumi; Suzuki, Shinichi; Aoyagi, Noboru; Sakamoto, Fuminori; Onuki, Toshihiko

The radioactive fallout cesium ($$^{137}$$Cs) in the sewage sludge ashes (SSAs) produced after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Accident was tested. Two of tested five SSAs contained $$^{137}$$Cs above the radioactivity criterion for controlled landfill disposal in Japan. The minerals of SSAs are divided into two groups: an HCl-soluble phase mainly composed of phosphates and metal oxides; and silicates. The majority of $$^{137}$$Cs was contained in the HCl-soluble phase. Among the HCl-soluble subphases, Fe-bearing phases, probably iron oxides, were mainly responsible for $$^{137}$$Cs retention. Pre-pulverizing SSAs and heating them in an aqueous HCl was the most effective method of dissolving the HCl-soluble phase. The radioactivity concentrations of $$^{137}$$Cs in all the HCl-treatment residues were below the criterion. This residue was mostly composed of silicates. Static leaching tests of the residue revealed that $$^{137}$$Cs is very stably immobilized in the silicates.

This study is aimed at controlling oxidation reaction of molten metal by ash in incineration systems, and at positively utilizing the oxidation reaction for decontamination of slag. In this year, in order to investigate physico-chemical properties of mixed fused salt containing alkali sulfates, with special focus on the behaviour of oxygen anion in the melts, Cu$$^{2+}$$ / Cu$$^{+}$$ redox equilibrium experiments were carried out. Among the effect of various parameters on Cu$$^{2+}$$ / Cu$$^{+}$$ ratio in binary and ternary alkali sulfate melts, the effect of partial pressures of oxygen and SO$$_{2}$$ was mainly investigated in the study. Variation in Cu$$^{2+}$$ / Cu$$^{+}$$ ratio were presented as the function of partial pressures of oxygen and SO$$_{2}$$, respectively. Possible thermodynamic interpretation were made on the experimental results. In addition, the dissolution of Cr$$_{2}$$O$$_{3}$$ in mixed alkali sulfates were also investigated as a first step to elucidate the mechanism of hot corrosion. With this investigation, an important finding was obtained that the solubility of Cr$$_{2}$$O$$_{3}$$ for melts with same average ionic radius, in other words, oxygen ion activity, were essentially identical under constant temperature and atmosphere.

Chemical states of $$^{137}$$Cs in sewage sludge ash and radioactivity concentration reduction method

no journal, , 

Huge quantities of radionuclides were emitted by the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and descended in wide areas of east Japan. A great amount of sewage sludge ashes (SSAs) containing fallout radionuclides (mainly $$^{137}$$Cs) at high concentration was generated and has been stored in sewage treatment plants until being disposed of. To contribute for the safety landfill disposal, we investigated the chemical states of $$^{137}$$Cs in SSAs by dissolution and static leach experiments. A fraction of $$^{137}$$Cs was contained in alkali metal salts, the major fraction of $$^{137}$$Cs was in iron oxides, and the rest was in silicates (quartz and feldspar). About 80-90% of $$^{137}$$Cs was contained in alkali metal salts and iron oxides and most of these solid phases were dissolved by heating in HCl aqueous solutions. These HCl-dissolvable phases were completely dissolved by pre-pulverizing SSAs and the subsequent heating in HCl aqueous solution at 95$$^{circ}$$C. The residues were mostly silicates and contained about 10-20% of $$^{137}$$Cs in the original SSAs. Several percent of $$^{137}$$Cs in the original SSA was leachable to synthetic seawater, while the $$^{137}$$Cs in the residue was non-leachable.

Radiocesium in sewage sludge ash

Kozai, Naofumi; Suzuki, Shinichi; Sakamoto, Fuminori; Onuki, Toshihiko

no journal, , 

A fraction of radiocesium (Cs) released by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident was accumulated in sewage sludge ash (SSA). It was previously reported that more than 80% of Cs is fixed in iron oxides of SSA and approximately 10% of Cs is tightly fixed in unidentified amorphous silicon oxides of SSA. This study reports that silicon in paper flowing in sewage and that in organic flocculant added to sewage at sewage treatment plants are origin of the silicon in SSA. Next, to contribute to developing measures for SSA disposal, we prepared geopolymer and cement solidified bodies containing SSA and evaluated their characteristics. We report a high barrier performance of geopolymer solidified bodies.
