Adsorbent of radioactive nuclides and process for volume-reduction treatment of radioactive waste
 An adsorbent useful for the adsorption of radioactive nuclides which comprises fibrous active carbon having a specific surface area of 1,000 m.sup.2 /g or more and an equilibrium moisture regain of 10% or more at a relative humidity of 45%; and a process for the volume-reduction treatment of radioactive liquid waste which comprises subjecting radioactive liquid waste containing radioactive nuclides to an adsorption treatment using an adsorbent comprising fibrous active carbon having a specific surface area of 1,000 m.sup.2 /g or more, and subsequently subjecting the spent adsorbent to an incineration treatment at a temperature which is equal to or higher than the ignition point of the fibrous active carbon.
