Immobilization of slimes obtained during the magnetic and sorption water treatment from radionuclides

A process flow diagram for the magnetic and sorption treatment of water from radionuclides has been proposed. Basic technology concepts were developed for the conditioning of water treatment radioactive slimes aimed at immobilization of radionuclides. A new type of matrices (glass-ceramic matrices) was used for processing slimes produced during the magnetic and sorption treatment of 90 Sr-containing water. Optimal conditions were determined for reliable immobilization of radionuclides in the proposed matrices. A comparative technical and economic analysis of technologies for immobilization of radioactive wastes has been made.
