1. A method for treating a nitrate waste liquid performing a treatment for reducing a nitrate waste liquid by using active sludge which adsorbs or takes in a radioactive substance in the nitrate waste liquid containing nitric acid and the radioactive substance and in which an anaerobic microorganism that reduces the nitric acid to nitrogen gas grows, the method comprising:a first separation treatment step at which an active sludge treatment is performed by supplying a first carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism can easily multiply and a second carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism cannot easily multiply, while adjusting pH of the nitrate waste liquid in a denitrification tank that accommodates the nitrate waste liquid, and at a time of separating a denitrified liquid treated with the active sludge by providing a first solid-liquid separating unit that separates the denitrified liquid into a sludge-containing solid content and a denitrification-treated liquid, gas not containing oxygen is supplied thereby to accelerate a treatment for reducing anaerobic microorganism and cleanse active sludge adhered to the first solid-liquid separating unit with gas; anda second separation treatment step of further separating the denitrification-treated liquid treated at the first separation treatment step in a reaeration tank that accommodates the denitrification-treated liquid treated at the first separation treatment step and aerates and mixes the liquid with active sludge by providing a second solid-liquid separating unit that separates the liquid into a sludge-containing solid content and a reaeration-treated liquid. 2. The method for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 1, wherein the first carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism can easily multiply is one or both of organic acid and sweetener, and the second carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism cannot easily multiply is alcohol. 3. The method for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 1, wherein a supplying ratio of the first carbon source is from 40 to 90% by weight. 4. An apparatus for treating a nitrate waste liquid, comprising:a denitrification tank that accommodates active sludge which adsorbs or takes in a radioactive substance in a nitrate waste liquid containing nitric acid and the radioactive substance and in which an anaerobic microorganism that reduces the nitric acid to nitrogen gas grows; anda reaeration tank that aerates and mixes a denitrification-treated liquid treated in the denitrification tank with active sludge in which the aerobic microorganism grows, whereinthe denitrification tank comprises:a pH adjusting unit that supplies a pH adjuster used for adjusting pH of the nitrate waste liquid;first and second carbon-source supplying units that supply two types of carbon sources to the denitrification tank;a first solid-liquid separating unit that separates a denitrified liquid treated with the active sludge into a sludge-containing solid content and a denitrification-treated liquid; anda gas supplying unit that is arranged on a lower side of the first solid-liquid separating unit and supplies gas not containing oxygen into the denitrification tank, andthe reaeration tank comprises:a second solid-liquid separating unit that further separates the denitrification-treated liquid treated with the active sludge into a sludge-containing solid content and a treated liquid; andan air supplying unit that is arranged on a lower side of the second solid-liquid separating unit and supplies air into the reaeration tank. 5. The apparatus for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 4, wherein the first carbon source is a carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism can easily multiply and the second carbon source is a carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism cannot easily multiply. 6. The apparatus for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 5, wherein the first carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism can easily multiply is one or both of organic acid and sweetener, and the second carbon source in which the anaerobic microorganism cannot easily multiply is alcohol. 7. The apparatus for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 4, wherein a supplying ratio of the first carbon source is from 40 to 90% by weight. 8. The apparatus for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 4, wherein pH of a treated liquid in the denitrification tank is from 7.0 to 10.0. 9. The apparatus for treating a nitrate waste liquid according to claim 4, wherein nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide produced by an active sludge treatment in the denitrification tank are circulated to the denitrification tank by using a gas circulating line.
