Decontamination of concrete by superficial melting with a new burner associated to a plasma (feasibility study)

  • 1. CEA Centre d'Etudes Nucleaires de Saclay, 91 - Gif-sur-Yvette (France)

Description

The experimental study shows that a concrete wall impregnated with Cs 137 can be decontamined. The configuration plasma + propane combustion is the more promising solution compared to plasma-air configuration : low level of NOx (20 to 40 ppm for the first configuration, 1700 ppm for the second one) and better thermal efficiency of the jet impact. Results are analyzed and technological possibilities are evaluated
