[0002] In nuclear power plants, spent fuel reprocessing plants, and nuclear scientific research experiments, radioactive iodine is a by-product of nuclear fission. Radioactive iodine is harmful to human health and the environment, especially to the human thyroid gland. Therefore, it is necessary to handle radioactive iodine.

The treatment of radioactive gas iodine is mainly through adsorption treatment by activated carbon modified materials with a large specific surface area. In related technologies, radioactive iodine adsorbers are divided into Type I, Type II, and Type III iodine adsorbers. No matter which type of iodine adsorber, the adsorption material used is impregnated coconut shell activated carbon, that is, nuclear activated carbon.

[0004] The modification of activated carbon materials is mainly carried out by impregnating activated carbon with impregnants, which mainly utilizes the physical adsorption of the micropores of activated carbon and the chemical adsorption of the impregnants to treat radioactive iodine.

[0006] The preparation method adopted in the above scheme prepares the iodine adsorption material through the steps of impregnation, heat preservation, washing, drying, etc., and a large amount of energy is required in the drying process, especially for activated carbon fibers, which can absorb water several times their own weight, requiring huge energy consumption, and the overall preparation process is complex, long cycle, and low efficiency.

[0007] Therefore, a new solution needs to be proposed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0033] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific illustrations.

[0034] Embodiment 1

[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, a preparation device for a radioactive iodine adsorber includes a circulation pipeline 1, a fan 2, a modifier volatilizer 3 and an adsorption rack 4, wherein the circulation pipeline 1 includes an air inlet pipeline 5, an air outlet pipeline 6 and an installation pipeline 7, two ends of the installation pipeline 7 are respectively connected to one end of the air inlet pipeline 5 and one end of the air outlet pipeline 6, the other end of the air inlet pipeline 5 is connected to the air inlet end of the fan 2, and the other end of the air outlet pipeline 6 is connected to the air outlet end of the fan 2.

[0036] In order to ensure the stability of the whole system, the circulation pipe 1 is coated with heat-insulating cotton 8. And the fan 2 is set as an electric heating fan 2. In this way, the gaseous modifier can maintain its phase during the circulation process to avoid condensation, making the whole preparation process more stable and efficient.

[0037] The modifier volatilizer 3 is connected to the air outlet duct 6 and is located at the front end of the installation duct 7. The modifier volatilizer 3 includes a modifier storage tank 9, a purge pump 10 connected to the modifier storage tank 9, and a heater (not shown in the figure) arranged in the modifier storage tank (9). One end of the modifier storage tank 9 is connected to the air outlet duct 6.

[0038] The installation pipe 7 is a variable diameter pipe with small ends and large middle part. The installation pipe 7 is provided with flow equalizing plates 11 respectively located on both sides of the adsorption rack 4. The adsorption rack 4 is installed inside the installation pipe 7 to support the adsorption material 13. The adsorption rack 4 includes a plurality of partitions 12 arranged in layers and arranged parallel to each other in the installation pipe 7. The gap between two adjacent partitions 12 extends along the air flow direction, and the adsorption material 13 bypasses the partitions 12 in an S shape.

[0039] By arranging the adsorption material 13 in an S shape on the adsorption frame 4 and arranging flow equalizing plates 11 on both sides of the adsorption frame 4, the modifier can be uniformly adsorbed on the adsorption material 13 during the flow process, and the permeability is better and the efficiency is higher.

[0040] The circulation duct 1 is provided with a flow meter 14, which is located at the outlet end of the fan 2, that is, located on the outlet duct 6. The circulation duct 1 is provided with a temperature sensor 15, which is located at the inlet end of the fan 2, that is, located on the inlet duct 5.

In this embodiment, there are two installation pipes 7, and the multiple installation pipes 7 are connected in parallel. Adsorption racks 4 are provided in the installation pipes 7.

[0043] Embodiment 3

[0044] The difference from the first embodiment is that an electric heating wire (not shown in the figure) is arranged outside the circulation pipe 1. By setting the electric heating wire, the temperature difference between different areas in the circulation pipe 1 can be ensured to be small, and the temperature control effect is better.

[0045] The implementation principle of the utility model is:

The modifier is preferably a volatile organic or inorganic substance, such as triethylenediamine, hexamethylenetetramine, mercury, etc.

[0048] Subsequently, the fan 2 and the heater are turned on, and the airflow in the circulation pipe 1 is circulated by the fan 2 . The heating temperature of the heater is set, and the modifier in the modifier storage tank 9 is heated to a certain temperature to volatilize it and flow with the airflow in the circulation pipe 1 .

[0049] When the gaseous modifier passes through the adsorption rack 4, the modifier is uniformly adsorbed in the micropores of the activated carbon fiber by the adsorption material 13. After a certain period of attachment, the modification of the adsorption material 13 is completed.

[0050] The overall preparation process omits the impregnation and drying processes, shortens the preparation cycle, and greatly reduces the energy consumption required for drying. At the same time, through hot air circulation, the modifier can be adsorbed more evenly, the finished product effect is better, and the process is simple, the preparation cost is reduced, and the efficiency is higher.

[0051] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the utility model.
