ABSTRACT:
Tritium formed in the treatment of spent nuclear fuel and during storage of liquid, radioactive waste products is retained by adding oxygen to said liquid, radioactive waste products, reducing in a subsequent stage the oxygen enriched with tritium and separating it from the tritium. The reduction can be carried out with NO. The higher nitrogen oxides formed can be reacted to nitric acid.
