Therefore, chemical decontamination is performed. For chemical decontamination, if there is a sparingly soluble clad, after pretreatment with a caustic soda solution of potassium permanganate, a strong acid such as sulfuric acid or a strong alkali such as caustic soda solution may be used. In order not to damage it, organic acids such as oxalic acid and citric acid, and chelating agents such as EDTA are often used.

A method for treating waste liquid, which comprises blowing air or oxygen gas containing ozone into an aqueous solution in which a decontaminating agent and a foaming agent are dissolved to form a defoaming solution, and decontaminating this defoaming solution. Into the defoaming waste liquid, the defoaming waste liquid discharged after the decontamination is received into the waste liquid treatment tank and irradiated with ultraviolet rays in the presence of residual ozone. The oxidative decomposition of the organic compound (1) is converted into carbon dioxide gas, water and nitrogen gas, and the exhaust gas is discharged through an ozone adsorption device.

In many cases, a decontamination solution in which the above-mentioned decontamination agent is dissolved in a concentration of 0.1 to 5% by weight and an appropriate amount of a surfactant is heated to a temperature of 40 to 80 ° C., and an ozone-containing gas is used. What is necessary is just to blow in and make the foam decontamination liquid which consists of bubbles with a diameter of 0.5-2 mm slowly into the equipment and piping for decontamination, circulate, and make it contact for 6 to 24 hours. If the temperature is low, the decontamination effect will be weak, while if it is too high, the foaming power will be poor. On the other hand, if the bubbles are too small, the function as bubbles is inferior, while if they are too large, they tend to collapse.

As the oxidative decomposition progresses, the bubbles break, and the liquid becomes bubble-free. At this time, if the waste liquid accumulated in the decomposition tank is circulated to the upper part of the tank by a pump, the time required for decomposition can be shortened, which is advantageous. The gas released from the bubbles still contains a considerable amount of ozone, so it is released through an ozone adsorption device, and the liquid is solidified by means such as asphalt solidification and cement solidification through the necessary concentration and volume reduction process. Then, the process ends.

After crushing it, it was necessary to follow the procedure of blowing ozone-containing air and irradiating it with ultraviolet rays. On the other hand, in the present invention, the ozone-containing gas is used for foaming, and the oxidative decomposition is carried out by utilizing the ozone remaining in the decontaminating foam decontamination waste liquid, so that the troublesome procedure as described above is taken. No need, and no antifoaming agent.

This has never been attempted because there is concern that the effect of the decontaminating agent will be impaired (such as the possibility that ozone, which has oxidizing power, will react with oxalic acid, which is a reducing agent). As a result of the experiment, the inventors have found that even if the decontamination liquid is bubbled with an ozone-containing gas, the action of the decontamination agent is not impaired by ozone in the decontamination stage, and the sparingly soluble spinel structure clad ( For example C
It was found that the ozone promotes the dissolution of rFe 2 O 4 ) and chromium oxide, and on the other hand, the ozone was found to be useful for the oxidative decomposition of the remaining organic compounds when it was irradiated with ultraviolet rays, leading to the present invention. It was

どである。The present invention thus enjoys all the benefits generally associated with foam decontamination techniques. That is, (1) a small amount of decontamination solution (about 1/10 to 1/20 of the case where no foam is used) is required, and (2) decontamination solution that contacts the surface to be cleaned because bubbles are continuously fed. Is constantly updated,
(3) No clad peeling (physical peeling due to generation of a trace amount of hydrogen gas), no accumulation of clevis in the peeled product, (4) decontaminated sludge or suspended solids contained in bubbles Is not settled (the principle of the flotation method),
(5) The decontamination effect is enhanced by the swelling effect of the surfactant, and (6) if oil and fat or microorganisms are attached, the surfactant can be treated without pretreatment such as alkali washing. And that they can be removed by the action of ozone.

の破壊を促すから、廃液の泡は容易に消える。In the treatment of the decontamination waste liquid, the metal oxides and suspended solids contained in the foam liquid act as a catalyst for the oxidative decomposition of the organic compound, and accelerate the reaction. The progress of oxidative decomposition causes the destruction of the bubbles, whereby metal oxides and other solids are concentrated, which also promotes the destruction of the bubbles, so that the bubbles of the waste liquid disappear easily.

すれば実施できる。The fact that the oxidative decomposition by ozone begins when the foam liquid is irradiated with ultraviolet rays means that the foam decontamination waste liquid discharged from the decontamination work can be treated immediately after the decontamination. In addition to the fact that no bubbles are required, no equipment such as a temporary receiving tank for waste liquid is required. Therefore, the present invention can be implemented by adding a small amount of equipment.

A decontamination liquid preparation tank (1) is charged with a decontaminating agent for an organic compound and water, and a predetermined amount of a surfactant is added to the decontamination solution preparation tank (1) and the mixture is sent to a bubble generation tank (3). On the other hand, ozone-containing air or ozone-containing oxygen is produced in the ozone generator (2) and introduced into the bubble generation tank to generate a large number of fine bubbles. The foam decontamination solution is transferred to the foam decontamination tank (4), where it is decontaminated. The decontamination liquid accumulated at the bottom of the bubble decontamination tank (4) is circulated to the bubble generation tank (3). In this example, as the decontamination target (5),
A sheet of steel sheet to which simulated Fe 3 O 4 (magnetite) was attached was used, and decontamination was performed by surface layer dissolution with a decontaminating agent. That is, the oxide was dissolved and removed without being separated as sludge as the oxide. Therefore, in this example, the foam liquid after decontamination contains almost no solid content. However, when decontamination of the equipment and piping is actually performed, the foam liquid in the foam decontamination tank contains solid components such as metal oxides as shown in an enlarged view in FIG.

ストを低減するのに役立つ。EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION By decontaminating equipment and pipes contaminated with radioactive substances and the like according to the present invention and treating the decontamination waste liquid, decontamination is promoted and the benefit of foam decontamination is fully achieved. It is of course possible to enjoy the effect of waste liquid treatment utilizing the oxidative decomposition of organic substances by ozone and UV irradiation, and on top of that, decontamination and waste liquid treatment can be performed in a consistent work. effective. It is sufficient to use the same amount of decontaminating agent as the clad adhering to the object to be decontaminated, and the effective decontaminating agent is not wasted, so the type and amount of chemicals used should be kept to a minimum. Is possible, and there is no need to use something like a defoamer, so the amount of secondary waste is not increased. At the same time, the receiving tank for the decontamination waste liquid is not necessary in terms of equipment.
These factors together help to reduce the cost of decontamination and waste treatment.
