【英国《国际核工程》1987年8月号第49页报道】几年来,英国在材料试验堆高浓铀燃料的后处理中产生了一些液体废物,其中含有大量裂变产物,但活度低;还含有在包壳溶解时产生的大量铝。这些中放废物都存放在具有很厚屏蔽层的不锈钢容器中,以进行衰变冷却。为了更好地进行临时贮存,需要对中放废物进行水泥固化。为此,英国在苏格兰的当里建成了一座新的废物水泥固化工厂。 [International Nuclear Project, UK, August 1987, p. 49] In the past few years, the United Kingdom has produced some liquid wastes in the post-treatment of HEU fuel in the material test reactor, which contains a large amount of fission products but has low activity. It also contains a large amount of aluminum that is produced when the cladding dissolves. These intermediate-level wastes are stored in a thick, shielded stainless steel vessel for decay cooling. In order to better carry out temporary storage, it needs to be solidified by cement. To this end, the United Kingdom built a new waste cement cement plant in Scotland.
