Description

Spent ion-exchanged resin generated from various purification systems in CANDU reactor is causing concern due to a limited storage capacity and safe disposal. As a suggestion for a proper treatment technology for the spent ion-exchanged resin containing a high activity of C-14 radionuclide which would be classified as Class A and C wastes, a fundamental study for the development of C-14 removal technology from a spent resin was performed. The adsorption characteristics of the inactive HCO3 ion and other ions in a stripping solution on IRN-150 mixed resin was evaluated and the removal technology of the HCO3 ion adsorbed on IRN-150 by an alkaline stripping method was proposed
