Abstract: In an electrodeposition treatment of an iron-group metal ion-containing liquid, without being influenced by the properties of the iron-group metal ion-containing liquid, iron-group metal ions are efficiently removed from the liquid by precipitation. An anode chamber 2A provided with an anode 2 and a cathode chamber 3A provided with a cathode 3 are separated from each other by a cation exchange membrane 5, an iron-group metal ion-containing liquid is charged into the anode chamber 2A, a cathode liquid is charged into the cathode chamber 3A, and by applying the voltage between the anode 2 and the cathode 3, iron-group metal ions in the liquid in the anode chamber 2A are moved into the liquid in the cathode chamber 3A through the cation exchange membrane 5, so that an iron-group metal is precipitated on the cathode 3.

Abstract: A method in which an anode chamber and a cathode chamber are separated by a cation exchange membrane, an acid solution containing metal ions is introduced into the anode chamber, a cathode solution is introduced into the cathode chamber, and a current is applied across the anode and the cathode, whereby the metal ions in the solution in the anode chamber pass through the cation exchange membrane, move into the cathode solution, and precipitate as metal onto the cathode, wherein there are minimal instances where electrodeposition is impossible or the electrodeposition rate decreases. Pre-adding a salt of the acid contained in the acid solution makes it possible to suppress concentration-diffusion of the acid from the acid solution. Adding a salt of the acid into the cathode chamber makes it possible to reduce the impressed voltage, reduce the amount of hydrogen generated on the cathode, and reduce the amount of power.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for treating a radioactive organic waste, the radioactive organic waste including a cation exchange resin adsorbing radionuclide ions, the method including the step of bringing the radioactive organic waste into contact with an organic acid salt aqueous solution containing an organic acid salt and whereby desorbing the radionuclide ions from the cation exchange resin, in which the organic acid salt contained in the organic acid salt aqueous solution includes a cation that is more readily adsorbable by the cation exchange resin than hydrogen ion is. This enables reduction in concentration of a radioactive substance in the radioactive organic waste and reduction in amount of a high-dose radioactive waste.
