あつた。
放射性物質の水への耐浸出性、熱的安定性及び
機械的強度を比較的大きいものに改善するため、
放射性廃棄物に何らかの添加物を配合し熱処理を

The present invention relates to a solidified body of radioactive waste and a method for producing the same, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a solidified body of radioactive waste and a method for manufacturing the same, and more specifically, after mixing a manganese compound into a solidified ceramic body containing calcined radioactive waste (referred to as "calcined body") and powder of the calcined body, The present invention relates to a method of producing the solidified ceramic body by melting. The solidified material of the present invention can efficiently store radioactive waste, is chemically and mechanically stable, and is suitable for semi-permanently storing radioactive waste.
In addition, this solidified product may be stored as is in a storage container, but for example, the food can be irradiated with radiation by providing an appropriate container or container to control the radiation dose to prevent spoilage, insect damage, and damage during transportation and storage. It is useful for preventing germination, etc., and extending storage period. As the contribution of nuclear power generation to the electricity supply increases, the amount of highly concentrated radioactive waste fluid generated, especially from spent nuclear fuel reprocessing plants, tends to increase year by year. When storing these waste liquids in tanks, storage space is a problem not only in terms of safety and management, but also in terms of quantity and volume, so there is a strong need for the establishment of a solidified substance that is easy to store and a method for producing it. ing. In general, in solidified radioactive waste and its manufacturing technology, leakage of radioactive materials into the surrounding area is
It is necessary to convert waste into a minimum form, and the converted form must be chemically and mechanically stable and not cause environmental pollution even after long-term storage. In addition, since the amount of radioactive waste is expected to increase in the future, in order to store it efficiently, the ratio of the weight of waste to the sum of the weight of waste and added amount (hereinafter referred to as ``contained amount'') rate"
) is desired to be as large as possible. The radioactive waste solidified body and its manufacturing method of the present invention were developed in response to such demands. Conventionally, it has been proposed to store radioactive waste as a calcined body. Processing temperature
The calcined body is manufactured at 400 to 650℃, and the nitrate component is completely removed.The calcined body made of oxides does not decompose the nitrate component, so it can maintain static stability for a long time. , it had the following drawbacks: In other words, the calcined body alone has poor sintering properties and is prone to scattering of some nuclides, has extremely poor leaching resistance because it is easily soluble in water, and has low thermal conductivity, so it is difficult to sinter radioactive elements. The heat generated by the decay of the container has poor radioactivity, and as a result, the temperature tends to rise during storage.Furthermore, this temperature rise tends to cause damage to the storage container, making it easy to collapse in terms of strength. Because of these shortcomings, it lacks stability in long-term storage, and is particularly unsafe in the face of unexpected natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods. In order to improve the resistance to leaching of radioactive substances into water, thermal stability and mechanical strength to a relatively large degree,
A possible solidified material is radioactive waste mixed with some additives and subjected to heat treatment. In this case, the greater the amount of additive, the lower the content of radioactive waste and the higher the safety, but the lower the efficiency in terms of storage. Therefore,
There has been a strong desire to select additives that can more efficiently pack radioactive waste at high density, and to develop solidified materials using such additives. Conventionally, a vitrified body is known as an example of such a solidified body. The vitrified material is a solidified material obtained by melting highly concentrated radioactive waste together with phosphoric acid or borosilicate glass, and then solidifying it into an ingot of a certain shape. According to this method, by considering the composition of the glass, the leachability of radioactive substances into water is small.
Although it is possible to obtain a vitrified body with relatively high mechanical strength, in order to obtain a vitrified body with a stable structure, the upper limit of the amount of calcined body powder added is 25 to 30% by weight. was. Therefore, we need a solidified material that has good heat dissipation due to its high thermal conductivity, is resistant to the decay heat of radioactive materials, and can be filled and solidified with radioactive waste at a higher density, and its production. Development of a method was desired. In addition, in the solidified body, molybdenum alone or
When phases such as Na 2 O・MoO 3 , K 2 O・MoO 3 , Cs 2 O・MoO 3 are present as constituent phases, these phases have extremely low leaching resistance to water, so they are less likely to elute radioactive substances. Furthermore, since these phases cause deterioration of the solidified product, it has been particularly desired to establish a solidified product in which these phases are not present and a method for producing the same. The object of the present invention is to use metal salts for radioactive waste to form a solidified ceramic material, which has a high content and can efficiently store radioactive waste, and which has a molybdenum phase or Na 2 O.・
Because it does not contain phases such as MoO 3 , K 2 O・MoO 3 or Cs 2 O・MoO 3 , it has low leachability of radioactive substances into water, excellent heat dissipation and heat resistance, and excellent mechanical strength. The objective is to provide a solidified product.
Such solidified bodies are suitable for safe and semi-permanent storage of radioactive waste. The solidified material of the present invention has Na 2 O 5 in terms of oxide.
~40 wt%, Fe2O3 5-20 wt%, MoO3 5-15 wt%, ZrO2 5-15 wt%, CeO2 2-10 wt%,
Cs 2 O2 ~ 10% by weight, BaO 1 ~ 5% by weight, SrO 1 ~ 5
% by weight, Rb 2 O 0.2-2% by weight, Y 2 O 3 0.2-2% by weight, NiO 0.2-2% by weight, rare earth oxides 5-20% by weight, Cr 2 O 3 0.2-2% by weight, and other elemental oxides in the calcined body of radioactive waste,
Manganese compound at least 30% by weight (as MnO2 )
It is made by blending, melting and solidifying, and consists of elemental molybdenum, Na 2 O・MoO 3 , K 2 O・MoO 3 and
It is characterized by being a solidified ceramic that does not contain Cs 2 O/MoO 3 as a constituent phase. (Other oxides contained in the calcined body include Tc 2 O 7 , RuO 2 ,
Rh 2 O 3 , PdO, Ag 2 O, CdO, SnO, SeO 2 ,
Examples include TeO 2 and actinide element oxides. ) The calcined bodies of radioactive waste in the present invention include, for example, radioactive waste remaining after processing spent nuclear fuel and recovering U and Pu, as well as concentrated liquid of recycled waste liquid from a mixed bed desalination machine, and waste from a building. Various waste liquids containing radioactive materials such as concentrated waste liquid from floor drains and equipment drains, reactor purification systems, fuel pool systems, condensate systems, etc.
High concentration or medium-low concentration obtained by calcining various solid wastes such as used ion exchange resin and filter sludge generated from each drain system, and precipitated sludge generated by coagulation and sedimentation treatment of waste liquid. This invention can be used to treat a wide range of radioactive wastes. In addition, the manganese compound used in the present invention is
Any compound may be used as long as it is MnO 2 or a compound that changes to MnO 2 by melting or sintering treatment. By melting and sintering
Examples of manganese compounds that change to MnO 2 include manganese carbonate (MnCO 3 ), manganese oxalate (Mn(COO) 2 2H 2 O), and manganese nitrate (MnNO 3 ) 2
etc. can be mentioned. A solidified ceramic body produced by blending 30% by weight or more of a manganese compound (in terms of MnO 2 ) into a calcined body and melting it is extremely stable even at high temperatures of 1000°C or higher, and the calcined body alone cannot be fired. It is extremely superior in terms of leaching resistance, thermal conductivity, and mechanical strength compared to those made by bonding. Moreover, the content can be reduced to up to 70% by weight without compromising these excellent properties.
It can be increased up to. The solidified body of the present invention is a calcined body of radioactive waste mixed with 30% by weight or more of a manganese compound (as MnO 2 ) and solidified, but this does not prevent other substances from being further blended and solidified. That is, when 1 to 10% by weight (as NiO) of a nickel compound is blended, the mechanical strength of the solidified body can be further improved. The reason why the blending ratio is limited to 1 to 10% by weight is because if it exceeds 10% by weight, the leaching resistance of the solidified product deteriorates, and if it is blended at less than 1% by weight, no effect will be obtained. As a nickel compound, NiO or melted or sintered
Compounds that become NiO, nickel acetate (C 10 H 14 NiO 4 4H 2 O), nickel acetylacetonate (C 10 H 14 NiO 4 ), nickel carbonate (NiCO 3 .
2Ni(OH) 2・4H 2 O) etc. can be used.
In addition, at least one metal compound of calcium, strontium, and barium is added at 1 to 15
When incorporated in weight percent (as CaO, SrO, BaO), the leaching resistance of the solidified material can be further improved. The reason why the blending ratio is limited to 1 to 15% by weight is because if it exceeds 15% by weight, the leaching resistance of the solidified product deteriorates, and if it is blended at less than 1% by weight, no effect will be obtained. Compounds such as calcium can be used as long as they eventually become oxides. For example, strontium carbonate (SrCO 3 ), strontium hydroxide (Sr(OH) 2.8H 2 O), barium carbonate (BaCO 3 ), barium acetate (C 4 H 6 O 4 Ba), barium hydroxide (Ba(OH) 2・8H 2 O) Calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) or calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH) 2 )
etc. can be mentioned. Of course, compounds containing two or more of Zr, Ni, Ca, etc. can also be used. The solidified product of the present invention can be easily produced as follows. A predetermined amount of the above-mentioned manganese compound is blended into the calcined body of radioactive waste, and if necessary, a predetermined amount of a nickel compound and/or a metal compound of at least one of Ca, Sr, and Ba is blended and thoroughly mixed. The method of mixing radioactive waste and metal compounds is not only the usual powder mixing, but also the method of forming a film on the surface of the metal compound powder to be mixed. For example, the powder may be kneaded with water to form a slurry, passed through a sieve, granulated, and used as a fluidized bed to spray radioactive waste onto the surface of the particles at a temperature of, for example, about 600°C. This mixture is charged into a container, and approximately 1600 ~
A solidified ceramic can be obtained by melting at 2500°C and then solidifying into an ingot of a certain shape. When the metal compound to be mixed is manganese carbonate, manganese oxalate (Mn(COO) 2 2H 2 O), manganese nitrate MnNO 3 , etc., it is finally dissolved in a solidified ceramic body by sintering or melting treatment. It is necessary to perform melting in an oxidizing atmosphere such as air so that it changes to an oxide (for example, ZrO 2 , NiO, CaO, etc.). The solidified product of the present invention can be produced by any existing melting method, regardless of whether external heating or internal heating is used. By the solidified body of radioactive waste and the method for producing the solidified body of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. (1) Calcined bodies of radioactive waste are generally made of metal oxides, for example, as shown in the simulated compositions in Tables 1 to 3, and are relatively poorly sintered and solidified by themselves. According to the invention, a dense and strong ceramic solidified body can be obtained because of MnO 2 . In particular, when a nickel compound is blended, a solidified product with even better mechanical strength can be obtained. (2) In the solidified body of the present invention, the calcined body is
It has a thermally stable phase along with ZrO 2 , NiO, CaO, etc. As a result, radioactive waste can be safely stored for a long period of time. (3) The solidified product of the present invention is also excellent in leaching resistance, and in particular, when a metal compound such as Ca, Sr, Ba, etc. is blended and solidified, the leaching resistance becomes even more excellent. (4) The solidified body of the present invention can be filled with up to 70% by weight of calcined radioactive waste. In other words, the content rate is significantly improved compared to conventional vitrified materials, and as a result, radioactive waste can be packed in high density into storage containers (canisters), and the number of canisters can be reduced. can. (5) The solidified product may be stored as is in a storage container, but by controlling the radiation dose by, for example, providing an appropriate container or shield, food can be irradiated with radiation to prevent spoilage, insect damage, and damage during transportation and storage. Suitable for purposes such as preventing germination, extending storage period, etc. Next, examples and comparative examples of the present invention will be described. In addition, as the radioactive waste calcination bodies used in the examples and comparative examples, Nos. 1 to 3 were used to simulate the composition of the radioactive waste calcination bodies from which U and Pu were recovered after processing the spent nuclear fuel. Three types of powders having the compositions shown in the table were prepared (hereinafter referred to as "simulated calcined bodies").
