Problems solved by technology

The properties of each nuclide (such as enrichment and enrichment properties, existing forms, concentration, valence, corrosiveness, etc.) are complex and can change under different operating conditions (such as pH value, ionic strength, temperature, etc.). Enrichment creates a certain degree of difficulty
[0009] 2) The mass concentration of radionuclides is extremely low, generally 10 -3 Below micrograms / liter; while the concentration of coexisting non-radioactive ions such as K, Na, Ca, and Mg is relatively high, generally in the order of mg / liter, or even as high as gram / liter. The existence of these non-radioactive ions affects reverse osmosis The pressure on both sides of the membrane seriously affects the concentration and solidification of nuclides in radioactive waste liquid
[0012] 5) In the case of simplifying the process as much as possible, it is difficult to coordinate and cooperate with each other, and it is difficult to efficiently concentrate the nuclides in the radioactive waste liquid
[0013] In the prior art, there is no separation and concentration method and system with high nuclide retention rate and simple operation for nuclides in radioactive waste liquid, especially nuclides with small radii

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a system for separating and concentrating radionuclides in radioactive waste liquid by utilizing a reverse osmosis membrane. In the method and system of the present invention, a specific membrane material having a high decontamination factor for radionuclides in the context of higher non-radioactive ion concentrations is employed. The method comprises the following steps: 1) providing the specific membrane material with a high decontamination factor for radionuclides under the background of higher non-radioactive ion concentration; and 2) enabling radioactive waste liquid to flow through the surface of the membrane material so as to separate and concentrate radionuclides. The method and the system can effectively separate and concentrate radionuclidesin the radioactive waste liquid and solidify the radionuclides, particularly have an excellent removal effect on radioactive isotopes Cs and Co, greatly reduce the amount of secondary wastes, simplifythe process and improve the safety.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a system for separating and concentrating radionuclide in radioactive waste liquid by means of a reverse osmosis membrane. Background technique [0002] As an important clean energy, nuclear power is gradually becoming an important part of the world's energy structure. However, in the daily operation and accident conditions of nuclear power plants, a large amount of radioactive waste liquid is usually produced. [0003] In order to meet the emission requirements of the national standard "Environmental Radiation Protection of Nuclear Power Plants" (GB6249-2011), the decontamination factor of radioactive substances in the radioactive waste liquid treatment system of nuclear power plants usually needs to reach at least 10 3 -10 4 order of magnitude. [0004] Traditional low-level waste liquid treatment methods include ion exchange, inorganic adsorption, chemical precipitation, evaporation and concentration, and mem...
