Abstract
A cation exchanger is loaded only with radioactive cations by repeatedly converting the non-bivalent, inactive cations into anionic complexes and flushing the complexes out of the cation exchanger. The cation exchanger, which may be integrated in a primary system of a nuclear power plant, is connected to a feed line for a complexing agent and to a discharge line through which the anionic complexes are flushed from the exchanger.
