HYDROGEN PRODUCTION METHOD BY RADIATION-INDUCED CATALYTIC REACTION USING HIGH-LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE AS RADIATION SOURCE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To minimize electric power or maintenance necessary for hydrogen production. SOLUTION: The method is one for producing hydrogen by reducing hydrogen ions from an aqueous solution in the presence of an oxide catalyst by using gamma rays and beta rays generated from a radiation source such as Cs-137 and Sr-90 recovered from high-level radioactive waste as heretofore unrecyclable waste.
