イオン交換樹脂、キレート樹脂によるCs( I )およびSr (II)含有水の処理
Removal of Cs(I) and Sr(II) by Ion Exchange Resins and Chelate Resins
矢野 勝彦
Katsuhiko YANO
<要旨>Selective removal of Cs(I) and Sr(II) from waste water is needed in Fukushima Nuclear Power Station. We have estimated various types of ion exchange resins and chelate resins. Sulfonic-acid type cation-exchange resins and iminodiacetic-acid type chelate resins are effective for Cs(I) and Sr(II) adsorption from waste water. These adsorbents are based on aromatic copolymers, but resistant to some level of γ-ray irradiation. They show that ion exchange resins and chelate resins are available for Cs(I) and Sr(II) removal from waste water.

Radioactive Cs-Decontamination from Aquaus Waste by Nanoparticles
川本 徹
Tohru KAWAMOTO
<要旨> Since 2011, the radioactive Cs-decontamination from the environment is the serious problem in Japan. Prussian blue (PB), one of the famous coordination polymers, is the well-known good adsorbent for Cs-ion. We have drastically improved the Cs-adsorption performance of PB by the control of its nanostructure and fabrication of the composite with other materials. These new adsorbent will contribute the decontamination around the Fukushima prefecture.

高分子を用いた放射性セシウムの除去
Removal of Radioactive Cesium by Polymer

<要旨> Large amounts of high-activity-level water accumulated in the reactor, turbine building and the trench in the facility that were generated from the nuclear accident of Fukushima NPP-1 caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake. This contaminated water resulted in operation obstacles and environmental contamination. At present, the cold shutdown is completed by the circulating injection cooling system, while large amounts of high-activity-level water, over 260,000 m3, are stored in Fukushima NPP-1. In order to develop high selective adsorbents towards radioactive cesium, functional polymers can be used for the immobilization of selective fine adsorbents. By using the alginate gel polymer enclosing insoluble ferrocyanides and heteropolyacids, complete removal of radioactive Cs can be accomplished from seawater. Non woven Zeolite was also effective for the selective removal of radioactive cesium in the field of soil decontamination. Functional polymers are thus useful for the decontamination of radioactive cesium and environmental remediation.

Development of Fibrous Grafted Adsorbents for Environmental Remediation
瀬古 典明
Noriaki SEKO
<要旨> Water contamination with toxic metals causes serious human health problems. Environmental functional materials can contribute to environmental conservation such as removal of toxic metal. These functions were introduced into the artificial polymers by radiation graft polymerization. Graft polymerization can change the conventional polymer to act as metal adsorbents, which realizes rapid adsorption and easy handling. The synthesized fibrous adsorbents were used in a field test to achieve removing of dissolved radioactive cesium in Fukushima Pref., which was conducted successfully. Furthermore, a water purifier for cesium removal has been developed and is expected to be applied soon.

省エネに貢献可能な新フッ素樹脂ろ材の開発
Development of Energy Saving Fluororesin Media
新沼 仁・渋谷 吉之・包 理
Hitoshi NIINUMA, Yoshiyuki SHIBUYA, Li BAO
<要旨> We developed new fluororesin media with large pore size and thickness. It has high efficiency, low pressure-drop and long service-life which is similar to that of fiberglass media mainly used as HEPA filter media. The new HEPA filter with fluororesin media has lower pressure-drop than the fiberglass filter and a longer service-life than the conventional PTFE filter. Therefore it is possible to reduce the energy consumption at the operating stage of HEPA filters and we can provide an energy saving product that is reducing CO2 emission.

<要旨> An activated carbon fiber (ACF) is fibrous activated carbon which has many micro pores in the surface, and shows the characteristic outstanding as adsorbent.
Especially the activated carbon fiber containing 1,4-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2] octane (DABCO) shows the removal performance which was excellent under high humidity to the radioactive methyl iodide, and is used as a filter for the local ventilation of a nuclear power plant.

Cancer-Specific DDS Using Stimuli-Responsive Polymers
片山 佳樹

<要旨> Cancer chemotherapy has a serious difficulty with its poor cell specificity. DDS using nano-medicine consisting of polymer materials will be one of the most promising strategies to address this issue. Almost all cancer nano-medicines uses enhanced permeability and retention effect (EPR effect) based on extravasation of huge molecules in tumor neovasculature. As an additional effect, cancer specific ligand-receptor interaction is also available to enhance the binding ability of nano-medicine to cancer cells. Although these strategies realize significant drug accumulation in tumors compared with small drug administration, greater amount of nano-medicine may still be distributed to other non-target organs. In this context, Stimuli-responsive polymers have been applied to enhance the contrast of drug concentration between tumor and normal cells. In this review, recent progress of cancer DDS materials using a stimuli-responsive strategy is reviewed. Future directions for ideal cancer nano-medicine is also considered.
