Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for improving the stability properties of solidified radioactive ion exchange resin particles, in which method the resin particles are embedded in a mixture containing inorganic and / or organic binders, which is then allowed to harden.
- organic ion exchange resins in the form of small balls or in powder form are used to clean the various water circuits.
- both the balls and the powder particles of the ion exchange resins are referred to as resin particles.
- the ion exchange resin particles have the task of retaining general impurities in the water circuits, but also radionuclides. The activity of the circuits can thus be kept within limits.
- Active ion exchange resins are also obtained in reprocessing plants.
- the ion exchange resins are almost always used in the mixed bed process, i.e. Anion and cation exchange resins mixed. Only fresh resins in the OH 'or H' form are used, so that no foreign ions are introduced into the circuits.
- the ion exchange resins must be replaced when their capacity is exhausted by loading them with general impurities or when they are no longer able to take up activity.
- the exchanged ion exchange resins are to be regarded as weakly to moderately active radioactive waste that has to be disposed of.
- radioactive waste For final storage, but also for transport, radioactive waste generally has to be solidified, with various requirements being placed on the solidified waste for safety reasons. This includes a sufficiently high compressive strength, good water resistance, sulfate resistance and the lowest possible leaching rate.
- radioactive ion exchange resins When radioactive ion exchange resins are solidified, the resin particles are embedded in inorganic or / and organic binders such as cements, bitumen or plastics to form a so-called matrix.
- the aim is to accommodate the largest possible amount of waste in a given matrix volume.
- the swelling and shrinking behavior of organic ion exchange resins is to blame for the fact that the matrix may not be water-resistant after it has solidified.
- the cement hardening of such resins is therefore often viewed with skepticism. In fact, such a matrix can crack or even disintegrate when it is later stored in water if special techniques are not taken into account during solidification.
- the amount of resin has generally been limited to about 20 kg of dry resin particles per 100 liters of matrix, resulting in a compressive strength of slightly more than 20 N / mm 2 . If the cement mixture is also cured under overcoated water, the matrix also becomes water-resistant, provided that it is not dried in between. With a higher proportion of ion exchange resin in the matrix, the compressive strength drops to below 10 N / mm 2 . Such a matrix can also remain stable when stored in water, as long as no drying takes place beforehand. But if test specimens of such cement consolidation, for example in air with 20% rel.
- test pieces usually disintegrate within hours to a few days, or at least large cracks appear.
- DE-A-31 02 473 discloses a method in which the radioactive resin particles are treated with additives and / or thermally before their embedding in order to separate anion and cation resins.
- the influencing of the source factor was not controlled, but only the aforementioned separation was aimed for.
- the invention is based on the knowledge that the swelling and shrinking properties of the resin particles can be improved by a suitable treatment of the radioactive ion exchange resin particles before or during the solidification process in such a way that the resulting solidified matrix not only considerably more ion exchange resins with an approximately constant compressive strength may contain, but also has good water resistance after drying.
- the treatment according to the invention allows the ion exchange resin particles to be brought into a stable state in which they have a reduced swelling capacity compared to untreated resin particles and possibly also have a smaller volume.
- ion exchange resins are used in Switzerland, namely mostly powder resins in boiling water reactors, e.g. the Powdex resins from Graver Water Conditioning Co.USA, and almost exclusively spherical resins in pressurized water reactors, e.g. the Lewatit resins from Bayer / Leverkusen, FRG.
- the following examples are based on tests with spherical resins of the latter type. However, practically the same results can also be seen with powder resins.
- the Lewatit M-500 was used as the anion exchange resin and the Lewatit S-100 as the cation exchange resin, both from Bayer / Leverkusen FRG.
- radioactive ion exchange resins taken from the water circuits of a nuclear power plant were also loaded as follows: M-500 anion exchange resin with about 200 g of boric acid (H 3 B0 3 ) per liter of resin; Cation exchange resin S-100 with 4 g lithium per liter resin.
- the anion resin particles By treating the anion resin particles with a polysulfide, it was surprisingly possible to induce the resin particles to shrink considerably while at the same time allowing water to escape. After drying at room temperature and subsequent washing of the resin particles treated in this way, they had a swelling factor of only 1.5 to 2.0 prior to the treatment.
- the swelling factor is defined here as the quotient of the shaking volume of the resin particles in the water-wet, swollen state and the shaking volume of the same resin particles in the dry state.
- the swelling factor even decreased to around 1.0, which means that the resin particles then no longer swell and shrink when washed and drying.
- the anion resin particles still contain a vulcanizing agent, e.g. a xanthate was added, the swelling factor dropped to 1.0 to 1.1 even at room temperature.
- the swelling factor of anion resin particles could not only be greatly reduced by treatment with polysulfides, but also by ion exchange with special organic acids or anion-active organic compounds.
- Examples include: Monofunctional and polyfunctional carboxylic acids, their salts and their derivatives, e.g. Stearic acid, acrylic acid, natural and modified root resins, sebacic acid, etc .; Sulfuric acid mono-esters, e.g. Lauryl sulfate; Sulfonates, e.g. Vinyl sulfonates; Phosphoric acid mono- and di-esters, e.g. Stearyl phosphates, butyl phosphates, nonylphenol phosphates. These substances block the hydrophilic groups of the anion resins and can then also be partially crosslinked.
- anion resin In the case of the anion resin, a thermolysis process also proved to be as suitable as the treatment by adding polysulfide or another of the abovementioned compounds.
- the elimination of amines from anion resins at higher temperatures is generally known.
- the manufacturers of the resins expressly warn against excessive temperatures, as this affects the ion exchange properties.
- this previously undesirable phenomenon can be used to improve the stability properties of solidified radioactive ion exchange resin particles. If anion resin particles are heated to 150 ° C. for a long time, preferably in an air stream with stirring, amines split off, primarily trimethylamine. The resin particles shrink considerably and lose their swelling and shrinking capacity.
- the decomposition temperature can be slightly reduced by adding alkali and alkaline earth hydroxides.
- the duration of the thermal treatment depends on the treatment temperature. The higher the temperature, the shorter the treatment time can be.
- the temperature for the thermolysis can be selected in the range from 50 ° C to 250 ° C, preferably between 100 ° C and 200 ° C, the treatment time e.g. can range from 24 hours down to 1/2 hour.
- Anion resin particles which have previously been treated with sulfides or polysulfides, can also be removed by additional heat treatment within the temperature limits described above. Surprisingly, this can already be done successfully at a temperature below 100 ° C, for example at 70-80 ° C. This low decomposition temperature offers significant technical advantages, especially in exhaust gas cleaning. Subsequent oxidation with H 2 0 2 can then be used to produce cation-active resins from the original anion resins, which are more easily oxidatively degradable.
- the swelling and shrinking capacity of cation resin particles could be reduced by ion exchange with very specific cations or cation-active compounds as much as that of anion resin particles. This was done by adding a substance from the following groups: primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary basic amines which have either one, two or more amine groups per molecule, it being possible for the organic radicals to be additionally crosslinkable; basic organic phosphonium compounds; basic organic sulfonium compounds. Ba ++ and Fe H salts have a similar effect.
- Some of the ionic compounds that sterically fit into the ion exchange resins are so strongly bound to the resins that they no longer exchange these ions in the environment of a cement lye or in highly mineralized groundwater and the resins therefore remain stable in volume.
- This adhesive strength could often be determined by retrofitting Improve heat treatment even more, whereby the swelling factor could be reduced again.
- mixtures of anion and cation resin particles are mostly used.
- either one of the treatments described for the anion resin particles and one of the treatments described for the cation resin particles should be used, or the mixture of anion and cation
- the volume ratios and the swelling factors of mixtures of anion and cation resins treated in this way are proportional to the mixture ratio from the data of the individual components and can therefore be calculated for mixtures in advance if the data for the individual components are known.
- the comparison volumes given in Table 1 are each the specific vibrating volume in liters of an amount of 1 kg of dry ion exchange resin particles in the H or OH form, the specific vibrating volume once for the wet, swollen resin particles and once for the dry resin particles is listed.
- the swelling factor is the quotient wet volume by dry volume.
- the initial state of the resin particles was always the H or
- the resin particles were treated with solutions which exclusively contained the substances listed in Table I.
- the quantities of the treatment solutions were each sufficiently large so that the resins could be fully loaded in accordance with their maximum capacity.
- the resin particles were each treated with the relevant solution for 1/2 hour at 50 ° C., then cooled to 20 ° C., after which stirring was continued at 20 ° C. for 1/2 hour before being filtered off and the resin particles were washed with distilled water. To determine the specific shaking volume of the dry resin particles, the latter were dried in vacuo at 40 ° C. until their water content was less than 1% by weight.
- the untreated ion exchange resin particles have a swelling factor between 2.10 and 2.24 with a specific vibrating volume in the wet, swollen state of 2.50 to 3.23 liters per kg of dry substance. Furthermore, Table I shows that the swelling factor can be considerably reduced to or almost to 1.0 by suitable treatment of the resin particles. All those types of treatment that result in a swelling factor of less than 1.7 are of interest in practice.
- the information in Table I regarding the wet volume of the treated resin particles is also important. The smaller the specific wet volume, the greater the amount of resin particles that can be solidified in a given volume. It is therefore preferable to select a type of treatment which results in an optimum between the lowest possible swelling factor and at the same time the lowest possible specific wet volume.
- the mixture according to the above recipe was allowed to harden with an overcoating of water.
- the resulting solidified matrix had the key figures shown in Table 11.
- the cation resin was loaded with Ba ++ and the anion resin with S 4 - .
- the borate detached from the anion resin was precipitated with further Ba ++ as an insoluble barium metaborate.
- heat was released, which caused the mixture to warm itself from room temperature to approx. 50 ° C.
- the mixture was kept at 50 ° C for a few hours.
- the cement solidification took place about 24 hours after the pretreatment described.
- the mixture was further stirred to prevent the solids from settling and the formation of larger crystals. Loss of water due to evaporation during this time was compensated for by adding more water.
- the resin particles pretreated in this way had the key figures listed in Table I under No. 89.
- Table II compares the corresponding key figures of the solidified matrix produced in accordance with section a) (prior art) and the matrix produced in accordance with sections b) and c).
