Abstract During the past ten years, selective removal of radionuclides from evaporator concentrates has been an essential part of waste management at the Loviisa NPP in Finland. Over 900 m3 of evaporator concentrates have been purified with 112 liters of highly selective ion exchange material. The volume reduction factor, comparing the volume of the original liquid to the volume of ion exchanger, is over 8,000. More importantly, comparing the volumes for final repository, the volume reduction factor for final repository is 1,550. This volume reduction, added to the avoidance of cementation of the original concentrates, results in very important economic savings.

This paper recommends maize stalk as a cheap natural ion exchanger. Ion exchange equilibrium was studied using thermodynamic and kinetic models. The results showed a high selectivity towards cationic species of antimony (III), molybdenum (VI), lead (II) and arsenium (III). Waste waters and sediments from tailing ponds samples were analysed.

In this study the use of zeolites as ion-exchangers for equalization of ammonia peak loadings in aerated biological activated filters was investigated. For this use zeolites were mixed with a filter medium and the nitrifying filter was loaded with ammonia peaks for two hours at different flow rates. It could be demonstrated that during the phase of higher inflow concentrations the zeolite was collecting ammonia. When the influent concentration decreased ammonia was desorbed from the zeolite and could be nitrified by the bacteria growing on the filter medium. It was shown that additional zeolites can equalize variations of ammonia, especially in filter units which are working at a high nitrification rate and which are very sensitive to varying influent conditions. During the operation time of the filter no separation of the zeolite by higher hydraulic loading or by backwashing could be recognized. So the upgrading of nitrifying filters with zeolite represents an additional security for effluents containing oscillating ammonia concentrations.
