METHOD FOR PURIFYING WATER CONTAMINATED RADIONUCLIDES FROM URANIUM

摘要

FIELD: environmental control; may be used both for purifying natural radioactivity contaminated water in nuclear disaster areas and uranium deposits and for purifying effluents discharged by some chemical enterprises. SUBSTANCE: method employs blue rhoducite or chrysolite asbestos as selective solvent for purifying water and effluents contaminated with radionuclides from uranium. Purification process is conducted at pH=5-8. Single phase for 30 min purifies water from uranium by 80-95%. EFFECT: higher efficiency.
