1.4. Proposed solution for the treatment of radioimmunoassay
liquid wastes
At present, radioactive liquid wastes from RIA object of this research
are temporarily stored in the hospital itself. During this temporal
storage, a partial decay of waste activity is produced. Later, wastes are
disposed by ENRESA for final management according to the characteristics
of the waste.
As alternative to this management, we propose the treatment of radioactive
liquid wastes from RIA laboratories, with the aim of treated
liquid discharge, and volume reduction of the final waste to dispose.
