Problems solved by technology

At present, the vitrification technology also has the following problems: (1) the amount of solid solution of high-level radioactive waste, especially actinide nuclides, in silicate glass is small, generally lower than 4wt.%. Phosphate glass has a low melting temperature. , High waste containment capacity, etc., but it has a large thermal expansion coefficient and strong corrosiveness, which is not conducive to engineering applications; (2) Glass is a metastable phase, and in high temperature and humid environments, the glass phase will corrode, crystallize or Fragmentation causes the leaching rate of nuclide to increase rapidly, and the vitrified body cannot meet the requirements of geological disposal after 1000 years
Vitrification in the solidification technology has strong adaptability to waste source items, and is the only treatment technology for high-level radioactive waste that has been applied in engineering. However, glass is a metastable phase, and vitrification containing actinide nuclides is difficult to meet the long-term requirements of geological disposal. Safety requirements: The cured body prepared by ceramic solidification has good long-term safety, but has poor adaptability to waste sources with complex components, and it is difficult to directly and safely solidify actinide nuclides in high-level waste liquid

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the solidification treatment of radioactive waste liquid, and relates to a method for treating radioactive waste liquid with phosphate minerals. The invention is particularly suitable for the safe treatment and disposal of high-level radioactive waste liquid containing actinide nuclides. Background technique [0002] With the increase in energy demand and the improvement of environmental protection awareness, nuclear energy is still the preferred energy source in terms of resources, economy, and safety, but the radioactive waste generated restricts the sustainable development of nuclear energy. Therefore, how to safely and effectively dispose of radioactive waste is a domestic issue. external problems. High-level liquid waste (referred to as HLLW, High-level liquid waste in English) is derived from the extract produced by the uranium-plutonium co-decontamination cycle in the PUREX (Plutonium Uranium Redox Extraction) process o...
