These are granulated sorbents based on large-pore silica gel containing nanometric particles of Ag or Ag-Ni compounds (trademark Fizkhimin). The sorbents allow to remove various radioactive iodine species (inorganic ones and methyl iodide) from a steam-gas phase with at least 104 decontamination factor. The high sorption properties of Fizkhimin sorbent with Ag particles were confirmed during tests at a test facility of the TUV Sudwest company (Karlsruhe, Germany). This passive filtration system is installed at the 1st and 2nd units of the Kudankulam nuclear power plant (India) and it is unique in the world practice.展开更多

Under comparable experimental conditions, 97% - 99% decomposition of CH3131I is achieved at ~770?C without sorbents and at ~540?C and ~465?C in the presence of straight silica gel and of the material based on it, impregnated with compounds of Ni or its mixture with Cu (8 - 10 wt%), respectively.展开更多
