Solvent exchange rates of selected protons were measured by NMR saturation recovery method for yeast $tRNA^{Phe}$, at temperature from 25 to $40^{\circ}C$, in the presence of 0.1 M NaCl and various low levels of added magnesium ion. The exchange rates in zero $Mg^{2+}$ concentration indicate early melting of acceptor stem, D stem, and tertiary structure. Addition of magnesium ion stabilizes the entire D stem more effectively than any other secondary or tertiary interactions.

This article provides a survey of wet (aqueous) methods for recovery, separation, and purification of uranium from fission products in carbonate solutions during the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel and methods for removal of radionuclides from alkaline radioactive waste. The main methods such as selective direct precipitation, ion exchange, and solvent extraction are considered. These methods were compared and evaluated for reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel in carbonate media according to novel alternative non-acidic methods and for treatment processes of alkaline radioactive waste.

The transport and removal characteristics of cobalt ions were investigated in a continuous electrodeionization with cation exchange textile (CEDI-CET). It was shown that the removal properties of cobalt ions are strongly dependent on the operating parameters such as temperature, flow velocity, and the solution pH. The transport and removal of cobalt ions was mainly related to the sorption on the surface and the convection and electro-migration through the ion exchange medium. In this study, the CEDI-CET showed good process performance for the removal of metal ions compared with the conventional CEDI with resins.

To investigate the tendency of $Li^+$ exchange from polar organic solvents, $Li^+$-ion exchange into zeolite Y (Si/Al = 1.56) was attempted by undried methanol (crystal 1) and formamide (crystal 2) solvent. Two single crystals of Na-Y were treated with 0.1 M LiNO3 in each of the two solvents at 323 K, followed by vacuum dehydration at 723 K. Their structures were determined by single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group $Fd{\bar{3}}m$, at 100(1) K. In both structures, $Li^+$ for $Na^+$ ions filled preferentially sites I' and II. The remaining $Na^+$ ions occupied sites I', II, and III' in both structures, in additional to above sites, and $Na^+$ ions occupied site I in crystal 2. While the 68 % exchange of $Li^+$ for $Na^+$ was achieved from undried methanol, only 40 % exchange was observed from undried formamide, indicating that the undried methanol was more effective than undried formamide as solvent for $Li^+$ exchange under the conditions employed.

톨루엔의 동종간 주고 받기 반응에 대한 ZSM-5 촉매의 활성은 양이온의 종류, 이온교환을 그리고 반응온도에 좌우된다. 활성은 알카리금속, 알카리토금속, 수소, 희토류 금속 이온이 교환되는 순서로 증가하며 이온 교환도가 증가함에 따라 감소한다. 이온 교환된 ZSM-5 촉매중에서 Cs-ZSM-5만이 p-크실렌에 대해 우세한 선택성을 나타내는데 p-크실렌에 대한 선택성은 세슘이온 교환율이 증가할 수록 반응온도가 감소 할수록 증가한다. 이러한 현상은 ZSM-5의 세공 교차점에 있는 세슘이온이 부분적으로 세공을 막아주는 형상 선택성으로 해석된다.

Material corrosion in nuclear power plant (NPP) is not controlled only by amine injection but also by ion exchange (IX) which is the best option to remove trace Na⁺. This study was conducted to understand the Na⁺ leakage characteristics of IX beds packed with ethanolamine-form (ETAH-form) and hydrogen-form (H-form) resins in the simulated water-steam cycle in terms of intrinsic behaviors of four kinds of cation-exchange resins through ASTM test and Vanselow mass action modeling. Na⁺ was inappreciably escaped throughout the channel created in resin layer. Na⁺ leakage from IX bed was non-linearly raised because of its decreasing selectivity with increasing Na⁺ capture and with increasing the fraction of ETAH-form resin. Na⁺ did not reach the breakthrough earlier than ETAH⁺ and NH₄⁺ due to the increased selectivity of Na⁺ to the cation-exchange resin (H⁺ < ETAH⁺ < NH₄⁺ ≪ Na⁺) at the feed composition. Na⁺ leakage from the resin bed filled with small particles was decreased due to the enhanced dynamic IX processes, regardless of its low selectivity. Thus, the particle size is a predominant factor among intrinsic properties of IX resin to reduce Na⁺ leakage from the condensate polishing plant (CPP) in NPPs.

$AG^{(R)}$ 50W-X8 양이온교환수지를 이용하여 14종의 희토류원소와 Y를분리하고, 유도결합플라스마 원자방출분광법(ICP-AES)으로 분석하는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 수지에 대한 희토류원소의 이온교환용량은 매우 커 pH 1~6 범위와 0.3~1.0mL/min의 흐름속도에서 희토류원소는 모두 정량적으로 이온교환 되었다. 희토류원소의 돌파점 용량 곡선은 경희토류원소(Cerium 그릅)의 이온교환능력이 중희토류원소(Yttrium 그릅) 보다 큰 것을 보여주었다. 100mg의 이온교환수지에 각각 $200{\mu}g$의 희토류원소들이 이온교환 되어있을 때 대부분의 중희토류원소는 2.0M의 질산 10 mL로, 경희토류원소는 30mL로 정량적으로 탈착시킬 수 있었다. 본 방법으로 모나자이트 중에 희토류원소를 분석하였다. 모나자이트 중에 공존하는 Ti, Mn, Mg, Ca 등의 원소는 상대적으로 희토류원소 보다 이온교환 능력이 낮아, 매트릭스 원소로 부터 희토류원소의 분리가 가능하였다. 그러나 본 방법에서 분석 결과의 상대표준편차는 1~5%로 향상되지 않았다.

전기탈이온 장치를 통한 니켈이온의 이동메커니즘이 이온교환섬유의 전기화학적 특성을 이용하여 조사되었다. 포러스 플러그 모델과 확장된 넌스트-플라크 식이 니켈이온의 이동 현상의 해석을 위해서 적용되었다. 적용된 모델을 통해 전기탈이온 시스템의 성능증가는 이온교환섬유를 통해 변화되는 이동도에 기인하는 것이 아니라, 이온교환매개체의 자체 전도도에 의해 일어나는 전류 유발 효과에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 최적의 전기탈이온 공정운전이 최소화된 전기적 재생영역하에서 일어남을 본 연구를 통해 제시되었다.

Electrochemical reduction of nitrate was studied using Zn, Cu and (Ir+Ru)-Ti cathodes and Pt/Ti anode in a cell divided by an ion exchange membrane. During electrolysis, effects of the different cathode types on operating parameters (i.e., voltage, temperature and pH), nitrate removal efficiency and by-products (i.e., nitrite and ammonia) formation were investigated. Ammonia oxidation rate in the presence of NaCl was also determined using the different ratios of hypochlorous acid to ammonia. The operating parameter values were similar for all types of cathode materials and were maintained relatively constant. Nitrate was well reduced and converted mostly to ammonia using Zn and Cu cathodes. Ammonia, produced as a by-product of nitrate reduction, was oxidized in the presence of NaCl in the electrochemical process and the oxidation performance was enhanced upon increasing the hypochlorous acid-to-ammonia ratio to 1.09:1. Zn and Cu cathodes promoted the nitrate reduction to ammonia and the produced ammonia was finally removed from solution by reacting with hypochlorite ions. Using Zn or Cu cathodes, instead of noble metal cathodes, in the electrochemical process can be an alternative technology for nitrate-containing wastewater treatment.

With the significant increase in spent ion-exchange resin generation, to meet the requirements of Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) of the Wolsong disposal facility in Korea, blending is considered as a method for enhancing disposal options for intermediate level waste from nuclear reactors. A mass balance formula approach was used to enable blending process with an appropriate mixing ratio. As a result, it is estimated around 44.3% of high activity spent resins can be blended with the overall volume of low activity spent resins at a 1:7.18 conservative blending ratio. In contrast, the reduction of high activity spent resins is considered a positive solution in reducing the amount of spent resins stored. In an economic study, the blending process has been proven to lower the disposal cost by 10% compared to current APR1400 treatment. Prior to commencing use of this blending method in Korea, coordinated discussion, and safety and health assessment should be undertaken to investigate the feasibility of fitting this blending method to national policy as a means of waste predisposal processing and management in the future.
