Electro-physical methods of decontamination of radioactive equipment surfaces

摘要

As nuclear power plants (NPPs) and other objects of nuclear industry are decommissioned, the quantity and volume of radioactive materials drastically increase. Traditional chemical or electro-hemical methods of decontamination are rather labour-intensive and result in the generation of large volumes of liquid radioactive waste (LRW). The purification and neutralisation of this LRW require costly operations, including radiation protection and ensuring ecological safety.
