Dry decontamination technique is required for maintaining nuclear material handling equipment contaminated with highly radioactive material in a hot cell. In order to determine the optimum blasting conditions of dry ice pellet blasting device, the basic experiments have been conducted on the simulated test specimens of four types of metals. The removal efficiency of test piece was evaluated by the XRF analysis and the change of the surface condition before and after blasting. The removal efficiency of cesium on loose contamination was 100% under blasting pressure; 3 ㎏/㎠, blasting distance; 10 ㎝, blasting time; 10 sec. In case of fixed contamination, the removal efficiency of cesium was almost 96% under blasting pressure; 4㎏/㎠, blasting distance; 10 ㎝, blasting time; 30 sec.
