Abstract

Abstract

Experiments were carried out on a pilot equipment to study the performance of treatment of simulated boron containing radioactive wastewater by reverse osmosis membrane.Results showed that the rejection efficiency of boron,simulated nuclides and salts in simulated wastewater could be enhanced by increasing the feedwater pH,improving the applied pressure or reducing the recovery ratio.By adjusting the simulated wastewater pH to 9.0,the boron concentration in permeate could be lower than 5mg/L and two nuclides including cobalt and cesium could be removed to a satisfied extend.
