A method of decontaminating power plant waste water or removing radioisotopes from liquid power plant wastes comprises subjecting the liquid waste to preliminary filtration to remove solids therefrom and then directly, or after concentration of the solution, without further solid formation, subjecting the liquid to ion and isotope exchange with inorganic solids containing metals in the same oxidation state as metal ions in the solution. The solids are then recovered from the solution on an alluvial or deposit filter, the recovered solids being subjected to solid waste disposal and the decontaminated liquid, generally water, being exchanged. |
