Abrégé

A reactor containment vessel vent system continuously releases steam generated in a reactor containment vessel to the atmosphere even when a power supply is lost. In the reactor containment vessel vent system, the noble gas filter that allows steam to pass through but does not allow radioactive noble gases to pass through among vent gas discharged from the reactor containment vessel is provided at a most downstream portion of the vent line. An immediate upstream portion of the noble gas filter and the reactor containment vessel are connected to each other by the return pipe via the intermediate vessel. When the radioactive noble gases having pressure equal to or higher than predetermined pressure stay in the immediate upstream portion of the noble gas filter, the staying radioactive noble gases flows into the intermediate vessel by the relief valve. Thus, steam permeability is maintained and the system continuously releases the steam.

Abrégé

Provided is a chemical decontamination method whereby the time of decomposition of a reduction decontamination agent can be reduced. Oxidization decontamination of a pipe of interest in a BWR plant, the decomposition of an oxidization decontamination agent, and reduction decontamination using an aqueous oxalic acid solution are performed. Subsequently, oxalic acid is decomposed (S7). That is, a portion of oxalic acid is decomposed by the irradiation of the aqueous oxalic acid solution with ultraviolet ray in an upstream of a decomposition device (S8) to convert Fe3+in the aqueous solution to Fe2+. Hydrogen peroxide is supplied into the decomposition device (S9). In the decomposition device, oxalic acid is decomposed by the action of a catalyst and hydrogen peroxide, Fe2+is reacted with hydrogen peroxide to produce Fe3+and OH*, and oxalic acid is decomposed by OH*. The corrosion potential of the aqueous solution flowing out from the decomposition device is measured (S11). A concentration ratio reading device determines a Fe3+/Fe2+ratio (concentration ratio) on the basis of the corrosion potential (S12), and a control device controls the amount of hydrogen peroxide to be supplied into the decomposition device on the basis of the Fe3+/Fe2+ value (S14 and S16).

Crud included in radioactive organic waste containing a positive ion exchange resin is dissolved using an organic acid aqueous solution (S1). The organic acid aqueous solution is exposed to ozone to decompose the organic acid (S4). α nuclides adsorbed on the radioactive organic waste in which crud has been dissolved are eluted by an organic acid salt aqueous solution (S2). The organic acid salt aqueous solution is exposed to ozone to decompose the organic acid salt (S4). A pH adjuster (acid, alkali, reducing agent, oxidizing agent for water conditioning) is poured into the radioactive waste liquid containing the α nuclides, generated in S4 (S5). A colloid of the α nuclides is formed in the radioactive waste liquid, which has been pH-adjusted to a range of no less than 4 to less than 8 by the pH adjuster. The colloid is removed using a filter (S6). Ions of the α nuclides contained in the radioactive waste liquid discharged from the filter are removed by an α-nuclide remover (S7).

b) via the intermediate vessel (100). Further, when the radioactive noble gases having pressure equal to or higher than predetermined pressure stays in the immediate upstream portion of the noble gas filter (23), the staying radioactive noble gases flows into the intermediate vessel (100) by the relief valve (25). Thus, the noble gas filter (23) does not lose steam permeability, and the reactor containment vessel vent system (15) can continuously release the steam to the atmosphere.

Abrégé

Provided is an organic iodine remover for removing organic iodine inside a reactor container, the remover using an organic agent (for example, an ionic liquid, a surfactant, a quaternary salt, a phase transfer catalyst, or the like) which exhibits the function of dissolving, breaking down and retaining the organic iodine. The organic iodine remover is a substance comprising a cation and an anion. The organic iodine remover is characterized in that the cation structure in the organic agent thereof has carbon or oxygen bonded via a single bond to elemental phosphorus, elemental sulfur or elemental nitrogen, and has two or more carbon chains, and the anion structure thereof is composed of a substance which has high nucleophilicity. Using an organic agent having such a configuration makes it possible to remove organic iodine with an efficiency of at least 99%.

Abrégé

An ultrasonic flaw detection method and device identifies echoes appearing in flaw detection images. By selecting and controlling combinations of transmitting elements and receiving elements, plural waveform signals c are recorded. For each position in an inspection object, intensities of plural waveform signals are extracted based on the propagation time of ultrasonic waves and are totalized. A flaw detection image showing distribution of totalized intensities is generated. By selectively using at least three sound velocities for calculating propagation time of ultrasonic waves, at least three flaw detection images are generated. The areas of at least three echoes respectively appearing in the flaw detection images are calculated and the echo area which is the smallest is identified according to whether or not the flaw detection image showing the echo is one generated using one of a longitudinal sound velocity, a transverse sound velocity and a medium sound velocity.
