초록

본 연구에서는 우라늄 폐촉매 처리 공정에서 발생하는 우라늄 함유 폐기물 대상으로 유리-세라믹 매질 구조의 대형 디스크 소결체 형태로 제작 시, 최종 제작된 소결체의 비등방향 수축 특성 및 변형율 변화를 연구하였다. 본 연구에서는 최대 직경 40 cm를 갖는 다양한 크기 원형 디스크 형태와 원형 디스크의 1/4 크기의 부채꼴 형 소결체를 제작하여 이들의 비등방성 수축 특성을 평가하였다. 60 MPa 압력하에서 만들어지는 성형체는 소결 시 성형체의 크기 및 형태에 관계없이 높은 등방성 수축하였다. 제조된 전체 소결체에 대한 비등방성율은 평균 1.6%이었고 이때 평균 부피 감용율은 37.4% 이었다. 이러한 결과로부터 국내에서 발생한 우라늄 폐촉매를 처리하기 위한 공정에서 발생하는 우라늄 함유 폐기물은 대형 디스크 형태의 유리-세라믹 매질 형태로 고형화함으로써 높은 안정성과 부피감용 효과를 가지며 200 L 드럼에 포장될 수 있음이 확인되었다.

We studied the anisotropic shrinkage and deformation characteristics of large size sintered bodies in the manufacturing of glass-ceramic composite wasteform. We used uranium-bearing waste, generated from the treatment of spent uranium catalyst. Sintered specimens were prepared in several forms, comprising a circular disk, and a quarter disk in several diameters of up to 40 cm. Regardless of form or size, the sintered bodies had high isotropic shrinkage when they were fabricated using green bodies prepared at 60 MPa. The average anisotropy rate and average shrinkage rate were 1.6%, and 37.4%, respectively. We confirmed that the glass-ceramic composite wasteform in a large scale disk-type for packing in a 200 L drum could be fabricated with a tolerable anisotropy shrinkage. This has resulted in a significant reduction in the volume of radioactive waste to be disposed of with highly stable wasteform.
