Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we conducted extraction and identification of particles fixed radioactive cesium from the soils at Fukushima to make proposal of applicable separation method for reduction in volume, and leaching experiments to make proposal safety solidification of cesium adsorbed zeolites. As the results of this study, the particles are categorized in the following three types, 1) coagulation of several mineral particles, 2) mineral-organic matter complex, and 3) weathered mica, and separated from non-contaminated particles by wet screening and using diatomite. These particles will be directly disposed after volume reduction of the contaminated soils because cesium already fixed into structure of the minerals in the particles. However, cesium released from the particles must be collected by adsorbents such as zeolite. We confirmed that the zeolite bearing cesium can be safely disposed after encapsulation by slag cement.
