METHOD OF RECONDITIONING RADIOACTIVE FILTRATE

摘要

Recondiioning aricrium nitrete-containig radioactive filtrates as produced in AuC or AU Pu C process by feeding preheated filtrat,into the cathode chamber of an electrolysis cell containg boiling hrlrlcriur, nitrate solution. The filtrate is brought to the boiling temperture with the assitance of the joulean heat of the electroysis current. Ammonium carbonate free NP3 in the filtrate are given off as gaseous CO2 and NH3 and sleat and eletrolytically formed NH3.The uranium and/or plutonium orginally in so lution as carbonate compelexes is precipitated and seperated by continous circulation of the cell contents through a filter as well as eletrolytically at the cathode.
