Abstract

The invention relates to the field of industrial cleaning and particularly relates to a method for cleaning alkali metal residues and application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: enabling dry airflow to be in contact with a surface to which alkali metal is attached, and enabling the alkali metal to fall off from the surface. The dry airflow comprises carrier gas and a solid cleaning medium; the cleaning medium comprises dry ice; and the content of the dry ice is greater than 90wt% based on the total weight of the cleaning medium. According to the method, dry cleaning can be achieved; sodium-water reaction is avoided; the safety is greatly improved; residual sodium and other dirt can be quickly and effectively removed; almost no residue is left after cleaning; no secondary pollution is caused; cleanness and environmental protection are achieved; corrosion and damage to the cleaned surface can be reduced; and the service life of the product is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of industrial cleaning, in particular to a method for cleaning alkali metal residues and an application thereof. Background technique [0002] Nuclear power is of great significance for solving energy shortages and coping with environmental degradation and climate warming. The sodium-cooled fast reactor technology has become a key reactor type for its inherent safety and high economy. As a heat transfer medium and coolant, sodium metal has high chemical activity and can burn in oxygen, chlorine, fluorine, and bromine vapors; when it encounters water or water vapor, it reacts violently to release hydrogen gas, which releases a large amount of heat and causes combustion or explosion; It can burn by itself in the air, and explode to make the melt splash; it can react violently with halogens, phosphorus, many oxides, oxidants and acids. [0003] At present, there are six methods used in cleaning sodium-cooled fast react...
