PROCESS FOR REMOVING RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPES FROM AQUEOUS FLUIDS BY FLUORINE CONTAINING REAGENTS, FLUORINE CONTAINING, WATER-INSOLUBLE SALTS OF THE RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPES, AND THEIR USE AS THERAPEUTIC AGENTS
The present invention refers to a process for removing Cs, and optionally Rb, from aqueous fluids including body fluids by fluorine containing reagents, the synthesis of fluorine containing, water-insoluble salts of said Cs isotopes and their use as therapeutic agents.
Liquid-phase Oxidative Digestion Method for Radioactively Contaminated Carbon-containing Material
Disclosed is a liquid-phase oxidative decomposition method for radioactively contaminated carbonaceous material, providing a method of oxidizing carbon into a gas in liquid phase to treat radioactively contaminated carbonaceous material. The method comprises the following steps: ball milling a mixture of a molybdenum-containing substance and a carbonaceous material, thermally treating the ball milled mixture, and performing liquid-phase oxidation of the thermally treated mixture. The thermal treatment causes carbon to enter space between molybdenum atoms so as to reduce the particle size of carbon and improve the chemical reactivity of carbon, and an oxidant is then used to oxidize the carbon in the space between molybdenum atoms into a gas in liquid phase, while the molybdenum-containing moiety is converted into a water-soluble substance. The method of has technical effects of mild reaction conditions, low energy consumption, high operation safety, and facilitates the recovery of elements attached to carbonaceous material.
ELECTROSTATIC INDUCTION SYSTEM FOR GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION
An electrostatic induction system includes used activated carbon as electron-collecting units, to which electrons are supplied by an electrostatic induction apparatus so that impurities that have been absorbed by activated carbon are neutralized or reduced, and neutralized or reduced used activated carbon is acquired. The neutralized or reduced used activated carbon is buried in an environmental conservation implementation area in such a manner that an amount of the buried neutralized or reduced used activated carbon and a number of locations at which the neutralized or reduced used activated carbon are buried are adjusted depending on a property of the environmental conservation implementation area, and that the buried neutralized or reduced used activated carbon gradually decrease an earthing resistance of the environmental conservation implementation area so as to cause the earthing resistance to have a value less than or equal to 10.
