Application of Ion Exchange Processes for the Treatment of Radioactive Waste and Management of Spent Ion Exchangers


Book Description

Ion exchange is one of the most common and effective treatment methods for liquid radioactive waste. This book reviews the current literature on the subject and reports on the existing state of the art of the application of ion exchange processes for liquid radioactive waste treatments and of the management of spent ion exchange media.
















Advances in Technologies for the Treatment of Low and Intermediate Level Radioactive Liquid Wastes


Book Description

This report describes a wide spectrum of treatment processes of both aqueous and organic radioactive wastes. It briefly covers upgraded traditional and well proven processes such as chemical precipitation, ion exchange and evaporation, and focuses on rather new membrane and electrochemical processes and combinations of these processes. Methods based on the use of biological processes for the treatment of liquid radioactive wastes are described in this report for the first time. It also describes both advantages and disadvantages of the technologies mentioned.




Chemical Precipitation Processes for the Treatment of Aqueous Radioactive Waste


Book Description

The purpose of this report is to provide a review of chemical precipitation processes for the treatment of low and intermediate level aqueous waste. It supersedes Technical Reports Series No. 89, Chemical Treatment of Radioactive Wastes, published in 1968. It provides data on the performance of existing plants and on improved processes that are in an advanced state of development.
