Abstract

The possibilities for using various technologies for liquid radioactive waste (LRW) management were considered. Technologies based on the application of sorbents highly selective to radionuclides were shown to have good prospects. Possible ways of increasing selective sorbent efficiency in cleaning radionuclide-polluted waters of various types were examined. The results of studying new high-selective sorbents produced in the Institute of Chemistry FEDRAS are given. The use of these sorbents enables one to treat LRW of various types in a single stage. The results of testing a sorption filter installation for management of LRW produced during operation, repair and disposal of nuclear reactors are presented. Use of this installation resolves a major portion of LRW disposal problems.
