Study on treatment of wastewater containing plutonium in CIAE (China Institute of Atomic Energy)

Abstract

The wastewater containing plutonium in China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE) is a kind of specific decontamination liquid waste containing {sup 239,240}Pu, {sup 241}Am etc, its alpha-radioactivity is about 1 x 10{sup 5} Bq/L. It is not suitable for treatment in Low-Level Radwaste Treatment Plant (LLRTP) due to its high alpha-radioactivity level and has been stored for 17 years. In view of safe management of radioactive waste, a conceptual treatment process for this liquid waste is presented. and the methods in the process are demonstrated. The results obtained show that any method of chemical coagulation precipitation, adsorption by P301 absorbent and ion exchange by macro porous cation exchange resin (D001-CC) can drop the alpha-radioactivity level below 3.7 x 10{sup 3} Bq/L which could meet the acceptable requirements of LLRTP.
