*Hyun Jo1, Cheon Kim1, Hwan Hwang1 (1.KHNP(Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co.))

Keywords:Vitrification, Cold Crucible Induction Melter, Radioactive Waste Treatment

KHNP has developed the vitrification technology of radioactive waste and operated the commercial vitrification facility since 2009 in Hanul Nuclear Power Plant. Based on the R&D and commercial experience, the KHNP has successfully developed and tested the large-scale CCIM with the inner-diameter of 85cm. And the pilot tests have been conducted for treating a wide range of wastes such as Slurry, Resin, DAW, Filters, etc.
