Abstract
Recent advances in application of catalysis to problems of waste destructio n and off-gas treatment in the nuclear industry are presented: destruction of mixed organic wastes in a fluidized catalyst bed, mixed waste oxidation in catalytically active molten salts, selective catalytic reduction of NOx, in off-gases, catalytic oxidation of H-2 in the ventilation exhaust from l iquid waste tanks and catalytic removal of VOCs in processes of groundwater and soil remediation.
