Abstract

The invention discloses a processing method of radioactive graphite, and belongs to the field of radioactive waste processing. According to the method, a microwave sintering technology is adopted to process the radioactive graphite. The processing method is simple in operation, high in processing efficiency, good in repeatability, safe and reliable, energy conservation and environment protection are achieved, and the method can be widely used for massive processing of the radioactive graphite produced in a nuclear reactor and other related fields.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of radioactive waste treatment, in particular to a treatment method for radioactive graphite. Background technique [0002] Since the first reactor was built in the United States in 1942, there have been more than 100 graphite nuclear reactors around the world. In reactors, graphite is generally used as neutron moderator, reflector, fuel jacket or container for nuclear fuel. The volume comprised by the graphite is often the same size as the core itself, which may contain 2000t of graphite in a typical moderated reactor. Such as: the Magnox pile in the UK, the largest has 3000t of graphite. Russia's plutonium production reactor has 900t to 1340t graphite per core. The UK, which is a major owner of graphite, has 26 Magonx reactors and 14 AGR reactors, as well as 10 research reactors, with about 60,000 tons of graphite. With the long operation time, most of the graphite piles have begun to age, some of them have been...
