Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing radioactive strontium-90 and caesium-137 simultaneously by adopting a centrifugal extractor and belongs to the technical field of radioactive wastewatertreatment. The method includes: adopting the centrifugal extractor, taking crown ether as an extraction agent of <90>Sr to extract radioactive <90>Sr in high-level liquid waste after acid adjustment,adopting nitrite acid solutions of different concentrations as washing agents and back extracting agents, and sequentially washing and back extracting extraction agents loaded with impurities and <90>Sr elements to obtain radioisotope <90>Sr products; taking crown as an extraction agent of <137>Cs, extracting radioactive <137>Cs from high-level liquid waste after <90>Sr is extracted, adopting nitrite acid solutions of different concentrates in the centrifugal extractor as washing agents and back extracting agents, sequentially washing and back extracting extraction agents loaded with impurities and <137>Cs to obtain radioisotope <137>Cs products. The method has the advantages of good transferring effect, high selectivity of <90>Sr and <137>Cs and radioactive decontamination factor and thelike, continuous production can be realized, and two kinds of high-purity radioisotope<90>Sr and <137> Cs products with important applications are obtained efficiently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for simultaneous production of radioactivity using a centrifugal extractor 90 Sr and 137 The Cs method belongs to the technical field of radioactive wastewater treatment. Background technique [0002] Strontium-90( 90 Sr) and cesium-137 ( 137 Cs) are two radioactive isotopes that have important uses in many fields. 90 Sr can be used industrially for X-ray fluorescence analyzers, thickness gauges, material level gauges, static eliminators, cigarette density measuring instruments and other radioactive detectors and radiation sources in control instruments; medically, it can be used to treat corneal ulcers, melanin Cancer, skin cancer and neurodermatitis and other diseases; it can also be used to make radionuclide batteries for military, scientific research, luminous instrument manufacturing and medical fields. 137 Cs can be used industrially as the radiation source in radioactive detectors and control instruments fo...
