“Foaming and Antifoaming in Radioactive Waste Pretreatment and Immobilization”
نویسندگان
چکیده
The objective of this research is to develop a fundamental understanding of the physico-chemical mechanisms that cause foaminess in the DOE High Level (HLW) and Low Activity radioactive waste separation processes and to develop and test advanced antifoam/defoaming agents. Antifoams developed for this research will be tested using simulated defense HLW radioactive wastes obtained from the Hanford and Savannah River sites.

The safe and effective management of radioactive waste has been given utmost importance from the very inception of nuclear industry in India and it covers the entire range of activities from handling, treatment, conditioning, transport, storage and finally disposal. Radioactive waste is generated at various stages of the nuclear fuel cycle, which includes the mining and milling of uranium ore, ...
متن کاملX-ray absorption studies of bismuth valence and local environments in borosilicate waste glasses
X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) were collected and analyzed to characterize bismuth (Bi) environments in borosilicate glass formulations developed for the immobilization of high level nuclear wastes (HLW), from the bismuth phosphate process. Therefore, the structural role of Bi in these glasses is of interest; in addition in the present study, more particular interest in Bi originated from unusu...
