Publication number: 20140378733Abstract: The present invention provides an oxidative decontamination reagent for removal of the dense radioactive oxide layer on a metal surface, which comprises an oxidizing agent, a metal ion, and an inorganic acid. The oxidative decontamination reagent of the present invention is characteristically prepared by adding a metal ion to the conventional oxidative decontamination reagent containing an oxidizing agent and an inorganic acid. When the oxidative decontamination reagent of the present invention is used, electric potential of the metal parts of the primary system of the nuclear power plant can be regulated as passive potential owing to the added metal ion during the oxidative decontamination of the primary metal part of the nuclear power plant. Therefore, by maintaining electric potential of the metal part as passive potential, local corrosion can be inhibited and at the same time secondary waste can be significantly reduced.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2014Publication date: December 25, 2014Applicant: KOREA ATOMIC ENERGY RESEARCH INSTITUTEInventors: Sang Yoon PARK, Hui-Jun WON, Wangkyu CHOI, Jeikwon MOON, Chong-Hun JUNG, In-Ho YOON, Jun-Young JUNG
