Materials and methods for mitigating the effects of halide species contained in process streams are provided. A halide-containing process stream can be contacted with mitigation materials comprising active metal oxides and a non-acidic high surface area carrier combined with a solid, porous substrate. The halide species in the process stream can be reacted with the mitigation material to produce neutralized halide salts and a process stream that is essentially halide-free. The neutralized salts can be attracted and retained on the solid, porous substrate.

According to an embodiment, a process apparatus performs processing on a byproduct generated in a reaction of a raw material including silicon and a halogen element or in a reaction between a raw material including silicon and a raw material including a halogen element. The apparatus includes a process liquid tank, a processing tank, a supplier and an exhauster. A process target member including the byproduct is introduced into the processing tank. The supplier supplies the process liquid from the process liquid tank to the processing tank and performs processing on the byproduct with the supplied process liquid. The exhauster exhausts a gas generated by reaction between the process liquid and the byproduct from the processing tank.

Provided is a method for treating radioactive iodine contained in steam discharged from a nuclear power facility, including a filling step of filling an air-permeable container with a granulated radioactive iodine adsorbent of zeolite X, wherein ion exchange sites of the zeolite X are substituted with silver so that a size of minute pores of the zeolite X is suited to a size of a hydrogen molecule, and the radioactive iodine adsorbent has a silver content of 36 wt % or more when dried, a particle size of 10×20 mesh, a hardness of 94% or more, and a water content of 12 wt % or less when dried at 150° C. for 3 h and thereby reduced in weight; and a flow passing step of passing a flow of the steam discharged from the nuclear power facility, through the container filled with the radioactive iodine adsorbent.

The present disclose is directed to a method for controlling iodine levels in wet scrubbers, and, in particular, recirculating wet scrubbers by removing the iodine from the scrubbing solution, such as by using ion exchange, absorption, adsorption, precipitation, filtration, solvent extraction, ion pair extraction, and an aqueous two-phase extraction.
