TY - T1 - Synthesis and Characterization of Hydrous Zirconia as an Ion-exchanger for Removal of Radioactive Iodine SN - / UR - URN:NBN:fi:hulib-201906243056; http://hdl.handle.net/10138/303431 T3 - A1 - Otaki, Miho A2 - PB - Helsingin yliopisto Y1 - 2019 LA - eng AB - In terms of nuclear waste management, the behavior of radionuclides with long half-lives, such as I-129, is of special concern especially for the final depository of nuclear waste. In addition, generally speaking, iodine is highly mobile and easily transferable to the natural environment. Furthermore, because iodine is an essential element for the synthesis of thyroid hormones, it accumulates in the human thyroid. Thus, radioactive iodine can also be the greatest potential danger of dose uptake ...
