Volume reduction apparatus and its operation method of radioactive waste

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an equipment capable of continuously processing radioactive waste such as a plenty of resin without generating secondary radioactive waste and easy in maintenance.;SOLUTION: In the equipment, oxygen is supplied to the inside of a processing vessel 1, exhausted with a dry pump 9 to be low oxygen pressure atmosphere and a material to be processed is thrown onto a heater 2 at the lower end of the equipment 1 from a containing vessel for the material to be processed 3 for heat-processing. A plasma generation means 5 for generating oxygen plasma at a high temperature and supplying it into the processing vessel 1, is attached to promote oxidizing reaction of the material to be processed 20.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2002,JPO
