Abstract: Ion exchange technology has been used to decontaminate radioactive waste liquids from various sources of the nuclear industry for decades. Both organic and inorganic sorbents are in wide use in both operating nuclear power plants and also in plants under decommissioning. Fortum’s selective NURES® (NUclide REmoval System) ion exchange materials have been successfully used to treat waste liquids produced after the Fukushima accident in addition to the usual treatment of waste streams produced by normal operation of nuclear power plants and decommissioning liquids. In Fukushima ALPS system, two of the four ion exchange materials in NURES® product portfolio were used, CsTreat® and SrTreat®, to remove radiocesium and radiostrontium, respectively, from the waste liquids.
