The effect of gamma-irradiation of Fe2O3 suspension

  • 1. Radiation Center of Osaka Prefecture, Sakai (Japan)

Description

The effect of γ-irradiation on the sedimentation of suspended particles in distilled water has not been satisfactorily considered for disappearance of this effect. Therefore, we investigated the increase in sedimentation by irradiation, it's reappearance and the dependency on the coagulation. The following conclusion became clear; 1) the irradiation against Fe2O3 suspension has the ability to increase the sedimentation velocity of interface and to decrease the turbidity, 2) these phenomena are due to the increase of coagulation induced by irradiation.
