Abstract

Precipitation and ion exchange methods are being developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to decontaminate wastewaters containing small amounts of **9**0Sr and **1**3**7Cs while minimizing waste generation. Using actual wastewaters, distribution coefficients have been determined for strontium and cesium, as functions of Ca, Na, and Mg concentrations, from bench- and pilot-scale data for ion exchange resins and zeolites. Models have been used to estimate the total amount of waste that would be generated at full-scale operation. Based on these data, four process flowsheets are being tested at full-scale.
