A process for the decontamination of radioactively contaminated metal which comprises contacting the metal with a decontamination reagent solution containing an organic acid and an oxidising agent, allowing said solution to react with the contaminated metal at a pH of up to 4.5, treating the resulting solution to cause substantially complete precipitation of dissolved metal together with radionuclides and separating precipitated material, containing radioactive contaminants, from said solution.

La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de décontamination d'un métal contaminé radioactivement, ledit procédé consistant à mettre le métal en contact avec une solution de réactif décontaminant contenant un acide organique et un agent d'oxydation, a faire en sorte que ladite solution réagisse avec le métal contaminé à un pH pouvant aller jusqu'à 4,5, à traiter la solution ainsi obtenue de façon à entraîner une précipitation sensiblement complète du métal dissous et des radionucléides et à séparer de ladite solution cette matière précipitée, contenant des contaminants radioactifs.
