Abstract
A method of treating radioactive waste water generated during chemical decontamination at nuclear power facilities is disclosed. Decontaminating agents, with organic acids, and normally containing inhibitors and surface active agents, are decomposed by oxidation using hydrogen peroxide, at a temperature of 60.degree.-90.degree. C., in the presence of copper ions, or copper ions and iron ions, as catalysts.
Claims3
A method of treating readioactive waste water containing organic material resulting from decontamination, comprising decomposing said organic material by oxidation using hydrogen peroxide at a temperaure of 60.degree.-90.degree. C. in the presence of copper ions and iron ions as catalysts, said organic material consisting essentially of at least one organic acid, one organic inhibitor, and one surface active agent.
