Radioactive liquid waste generated during the operation of domestic nuclear power plants is treated through a somewhat different liquid radwaste system (LRS) for each plant. Prior to the introduction of standard nuclear power plants, LRS used a concentrated water dry system (CWDS) to evaporate liquid waste and manage it in the form of dry powder. The boron-containing radioactive liquid waste dry powder was solidified using paraffin from 1995 to 2010, and about 3,650 drums (based on 200 L) of paraffin solidified drums are currently stored in nuclear power plants. Paraffin solidification drums do not meet the acceptance criteria for radioactive waste repositories because it is difficult to secure the homogeneity of the solidified body and there are concerns about leaching of radioactive waste due to the low melting point of paraffin. In order to solve this problem and safely permanently dispose of paraffin solidification drums, the characteristics of dry powder paraffin solidification drums containing boron-containing radioactive liquid waste must be analyzed and appropriate treatment technology utilizing the results must be introduced. This study analyzes the physical properties of paraffin, the chemical properties of boron-containing radioactive waste dry powder, and the physicochemical properties of paraffin solidification powder, and proposes an appropriate alternative technology for treating boron-containing radioactive waste dry drum. When disposing of the paraffin solidification drum with boron-containing radioactive liquid waste dry powder, the solidification body must be effectively withdrawn from the drum and the paraffin must be completely separated from the solidification body. When disposing the drum, the solidified material must be effectively extracted from the drum and the paraffin must be completely separated from the solidified material. Afterwards, the paraffin must be self-disposed, and the radioactive waste must be disposed of in accordance with acceptance criteria of repository. We looked at how each characteristic of the paraffin solidification drum with boron-containing radioactive liquid waste dry powder can be utilized in each of the above treatment processes.

물/Span 80-Tween 80/긴 사슬 파라핀 오일 계에서 PIC (조성 상전이) 방법을 이용하여 O/W 나노에멀젼을 제조하였다. 제조 온도를 30 ℃에서 80 ℃로 상승시킴에 따라 제조된 나노에멀젼의 입경은 120 nm에서 40 nm로 감소하여 나노에멀젼을 형성하였다. 혼합 계면활성제의 HLB를 변화시킴에 따라 12.0 ~ 13.0 부근에서 가장 작은 입경을 형성하는 최적 HLB가 존재하였다. 나노에멀젼의 점도는 액적의 부피 분율(ϕ)에 따라 현격하게 증가하였으나, 입경의 크기는 약간 증가하였다. 그리고, ϕ ≤ 0.3 조건에서 나노에멀젼의 크기 분포는 2 개월 이상 일정하게 유지 되었다. 이러한 결과는 점성 파라핀 오일의 경우 30 ℃에서는 PIC 방식으로 거의 분산 할 수 없음을 보여주지만, 제조 온도가 증가할 경우 단 분산 나노에멀젼의 제조가 가능하다는 것을 보여준다. 나노에멀젼이 생성되면, Ostwald ripening에 대한 안정성은 연속 상에서 액상 파라핀 오일의 매우 낮은 용해도로 인해 안정하게 되며, 이는 화장품 응용에서 매우 중요하다.
