For the safe storage of zeolite wastes generated by the treatment of radioactive saline water at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station, this study investigated the fundamental properties of herschelite adsorbent and evaluated its adsorption vessel for hydrogen production and corrosion. The hydrogen produced by the herschelite sample is oxidized by radicals as it diffuses to the water surface and thus depends on the sample's water level and dissolved species. The hydrogen production rate of herschelite submerged in seawater or pure water may be evaluated by accounting for the water depth. From the obtained fundamental properties, the hydrogen concentration of a reference vessel (decay heat = 504 W) with or without residual pure water was evaluated by thermal-hydraulic analysis. The maximum hydrogen concentration was below the lower explosive limit (4%). The steady-state corrosion potential of a stainless steel 316L increased with the absorbed dose rate, but the increase was repressed in the presence of herschelite. The temperature and absorbed dose at the bottom of the 504 W vessel were determined as 60• C and 750 Gy/h, respectively. Under these conditions, localized corrosion of a herschelite-contacted 316L vessel would not immediately occur at Cl − concentrations of 20,000 ppm.
