Evaluation of Iodine-Adsorption on Magnesium Compounds Toward Fixing of Radioactive Iodine

Article Preview

Abstract:

We studied an adsorption method as a technique of collection, and a vitrification method of iodine toward safekeeping. In this study, iodine-adsorptions on magnesium compounds were evaluated, and fixation of iodine into glass was tried. As a result, it was revealed that 1 g of magnesium oxide with high surface area successfully adsorbed 2.23 g of iodine. Iodine-adsorbed magnesium compound was tried to be vitrified with MgO-P2O5 glass.
