Optimization of Cesium Ion Exchange Performance with Hanford Tank Waste Feed Dilution
ABSTRACT Crystalline silicotitanate (CST) ion exchanger is currently used to remove cesium (137Cs) from the aqueous phase of Hanford tank wastes in preparation for vitrification at the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP). The CST is a non-elutable inorganic ion exchanger targeted to maintain a decontamination factor of ≥1,000 prior to the column effluent reaching a waste acceptance criterion. In an effort to reduce costs generated by ion exchange processing, system optimization of the waste treatment has been conducted. Decreasing the tank waste supernate sodium molarity prior to processing through the ion exchange columns showed that it can significantly reduce the number of columns used while maintaining the necessary sodium throughput. Optimization of this process can result in significant cost savings and ultimately result in less waste production.
期刊介绍:
Solvent Extraction and Ion Exchange is an international journal that publishes original research papers, reviews, and notes that address all aspects of solvent extraction, ion exchange, and closely related methods involving, for example, liquid membranes, extraction chromatography, supercritical fluids, ionic liquids, microfluidics, and adsorption. We welcome submissions that look at: The underlying principles in solvent extraction and ion exchange; Solvent extraction and ion exchange process development; New materials or reagents, their syntheses and properties; Computational methods of molecular design and simulation; Advances in equipment, fluid dynamics, and engineering; Interfacial phenomena, kinetics, and coalescence; Spectroscopic and diffraction analysis of structure and dynamics; Host-guest chemistry, ion receptors, and molecular recognition.
