- | Environment and risks prevention issues are a major stake in our society. The Rhône-Alpes region has
| |
- | understood that very early, especially through the importance of its chemical and nuclear activities.
| |
- | Industrial wastewater treatment permits their reuse in industrial use and improve their quality, enabling
| |
- | compliance with discharge standards. Various processes are currently implemented to clear the wastewater
| |
- | from its contaminants (e.g. biological, membrane liquid-solid separation, physical, chemical and thermal
| |
- | processes). One of them is bioremediation.
| |
- | It embraces processes that use microorganism metabolism to remove pollutants from a contaminated
| |
- | environment. This rather new approach, the less expensive to put in place, is especially interesting in the
| |
- | treatment of poorly contaminated effluents.
| |
- | <br/> <br/>
| |
- | However, these microorganisms must respect a few criteria: <br/>
| |
- | - harmlessness towards the environment and human nature, <br/>
| |
- | - easiness of cultivation, <br/>
| |
- | - tolerance to treated pollutant(s), <br/>
| |
- | - ability to be separated from the treated effluent. <br/>
| |
- |
| |
- | <br/>
| |
- |
| |
- | It is in compliance with this latter requirement that lies our project. In fact, the immobilization of bacteria on
| |
- | a solid support makes it possible to retrieve more easily the residue in treated wastewater.
| |
- | The activity of modern nuclear power plants with pressurized water reactors generates radioactive
| |
- | effluents that contain among other things radioactive cobalt.
| |
- | The tubing of the cooling circuit is made of a steel alloy rich in stable cobalt (59Co).
| |
- | Undergoing neutron bombardment coming from the reactor, this stable cobalt
| |
- | changes into its radioactive isotope, cobalt 60 (60Co).
| |
- | The capture of this metal is interesting on a sanitary point of view, because it
| |
- | represents a danger under both its radioactive and stable forms (carcinogenic). It
| |
- | also represents an advantage on an environmental point of view, in order to avoid
| |
- | contamination of waters, soil and groundwater. Even with a short half life,
| |
- | cobalt 60 emits high intensity gamma rays, and decays to nickel, which is stable but
| |
- | polluting.
| |
- |
| |
- | <br/> <br/>
| |
- | Controlled immobilization of radioactive cobalt is both an important sanitary and environmental issue, which
| |
- | we intend to solve with an innovative and economical response.
