I might be wrong...

But isn't carbon (ie. Charcoal) a great way to absorb neutrons?

It also absorbs impurities in water, but I'm not sure you would want to use it for that after it has been used in a fusion reactor...

Best to sink it to the bottom of the ocean probably...Where the carbon would remain sequestered for millions of years.

Carbon Aerogels might work, but I don't think they would sink...
