PROSPECTS FOR THE USE OF AIRBORNE MONITORING AND MOBILE INSTALLATION ‘PLASMA-SORB’ FOR PURIFYING ACTIVE SOLUTIONS FROM RADIONUCLIDES IN THE PROCESS OF URANIUM EXTRACTION BY UNDERGROUND WELL LEACHING

 

Abstract. The work is devoted to the development of airborne monitoring for the detection of critical conditions – spillage of active solution with subsequent purification from radionuclides using the PLAZMA-SORB mobile installation. Ways of creating an expert system for assessing the risks of critical conditions at uranium mining enterprises using the underground well leaching method are shown. The prospects for using aerial monitoring of emergency situations at uranium mining enterprises using the underground borehole leaching method and a mobile plasma sorb installation for purifying active solution (water) from radionuclides are considered. The creation of an expert system for assessing the risks of critical conditions at such facilities is demonstrated.

 

Keywords: emergency situation, active solution, UAV spill monitoring, mobile installation, PLASMA-SORB technology, radionuclides, expert system
