Plasma Processing of Radioactive Caesic Wastes in Shaft Furnace

https://doi.org/10.18412/1816-0395-2014-4-4-8

Abstract

There was considered behavior of radioactive cesium compounds under plasma processing of radioactive waste (RAW) in shaft units. Analysis of reasons of radioactive cesium compounds ingress into gaseous phase under plasma processing of RAW allows draw conclusion that main reason of insufficient efficiency of isotopes Cs encapsulation in slag is forming of cesium volatile compounds in the top part of shaft furnace, its subsequent adsorption on aerosol particles, and then carry over of radioactive particles by pyrogas. There was offered recommendations on environmental efficiency increasing of radioactive waste treatment.
