  • 원자력 시설 내 방사능을 포함하는 물질의 제염을 위한 방법 중 거품제염은 2차폐기기물의 양을 저감시킬 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구에서는 거품안정성을 증가시킬 수 있는 실리카 나노입자를 여러가지 조건을 달리하여 합성하였다. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTAB)는 거품제염제의 거품안정성에 많은 영향을 나타내었다. 이러한 거품안정성이 향상된 이유는 제염제 내에 공기와 용액간의 계면에서 실리카 나노입자와 계면활성제의 반응으로 생각된다. 또한, CTAB는 실리카나노입자의 분리특성에서도 우수한 성능을 나타냈었다. 실리카 나노입자 분리시, CTAB의 탄화수소기에 의한 소수성과 전하중성화에 의해서 실리카 나노입자의 응집현상을 향상시켰다.

  • Most of the low-level liquid radioactive wastes generated from PWR plants are classified into high or low total suspended solid(HTDS or LTDS), and into radiochemical and radioactive laundry waste. Although the evaporation process has a high decontami- nation ability, it has several problems such as corrosion, foam, and congestion. A new liquid waste disposal process using the ion-exchange demineralizer(IED), instead of the current evaporation process, has been introduced into the Yonggwang NPP #5 and 6. These two methods have been compared to understand the differences in this study. Aspects compared here were the released radioactivity amount of the liquid radioactive wastes, the dose of off-site residents, the decontamination factor, and the amount of the solid radioactive wastes. The IED system is designed to discharge higher radioactivity about 20% than the evaporating system, and the actual radioactivity released from the evaporating and IED system were 0.473mCi and 1.098mCi, respectively. The radioactivity released from the IED was 2.32 times higher than that of the evaporating system. The dose of off-site residents was $2.97{\times}10^{-6}$mSv for the evaporating system, and $6.47{\times}10^{-6}$mSv for IED. The decontamination factor(DF) of the evaporator is, in most cases, far lower than the lower limits of detection(LLD) with the Ge-Li detector. Due to the low concentration of the liquid wastes collected from the liquid waste system, the decontamination factor of IED is very low. Since there is not enough data on the amount of solid radioactive wastes generated by the evaporation system, the comparison on these two systems has been conducted on the basis of the design, and the comparison result was that the evaporating system generated more wastes about 40% than IED.
