Evaluation of filter media for clarification of partially dissolved residues containing plutonium (open access)

Evaluation of filter media for clarification of partially dissolved residues containing plutonium

A common process in the chemical industry employs the leaching of a desirable component from an insoluble substrate, followed by filtration to produce a clarified solution of the desirable component and a discardable residue. The work described here involved evaluating sintered metal filter media for separating dissolved plutonium from undissolved residues generated at various locations owned by the Department of Energy throughout the United States. The work was performed during a six-week assignment at the Savannah River Laboratory as part of a high school science enrichment program conducted in the summer of 1989. The leach step used included dissolving the plutonium-containing solids in a solution of nitric-hydrofluoric acid. To simulate the partial solubility of the actual plutonium-containing residues, a non-radioactive power plant flyash was used. 6 refs., 14 figs., 1 tab.

Survey of thermal imaging technology and applications at the Savannah River Site (open access)

Survey of thermal imaging technology and applications at the Savannah River Site

This memorandum is an introduction to thermal imaging systems and their use. Emission of infrared radiation from ideal and real materials is described, as are methods of detection in modern thermal imaging systems. Typical specifications and features of commercially available thermal imaging systems are described, and uses of thermal imaging are discussed. At the Savannah River Site (SRS), thermal imaging has been used extensively to measure the temperature of surface water that carries heat from the reactors to the Savannah River. Other uses at SRS have been surveying roof insulation and moisture, evaluating insulation of prototype glass melters at the TNX facility, and locating leaks in the Concentrate Transfer System. Future recommended programs include evaluating thermal imaging for general monitoring of plant facilities, especially electrical conduits, processes occurring at elevated temperature, and radioactive storage areas that generate significant amounts of waste heat. Research on the resistance weld techniques used in tritium reservoir handling (pinch welding and reclamation welding) may profit from high speed thermal image monitoring of heat generated during welding, and other Process Development activities may also benefit from high-speed thermal image monitoring. 12 refs., 1 fig.

Magnetic interactions in sup 119 Sn substituted for Cu in antiferromagnetic and superconducting lamellar cuprates (open access)

Magnetic interactions in sup 119 Sn substituted for Cu in antiferromagnetic and superconducting lamellar cuprates

Moessbauer Spectroscopy (MS) studies of {sup 119}Sn were carried out in antiferromagnetic La{sub 2}(Cu{sub 0.99}Sn{sub 0.01})O{sub 4} (214) and in superconducting GdBa{sub 2}(Cu{sub 0.99}Sn{sub 0. 01}){sub 3}O{sub 7} (123). Non-magnetic Sn{sup 4+} substitutes for Cu if the right procedure for diffusing {sup 119}SnO{sub 2} in CuO is carried out. Studies performed in 214 show a large quadrupole splitting (QS) down to 120 K followed by an onset of a magnetic interaction reaching a saturation internal field of H{sub eff} = 8.7(5) KOe at T = 30 K. From the combined magnetic-quadrupole interaction the angle {theta} formed by q{sub zz} and H{sub eff}, the {eta}-parameter, and the sign of QS were deduced and information on the local spin structure is derived. Studies conducted with the 123 material (T{sub c} = 90 K) reveal a broad unsplit line at temperatures down to 60 K followed by an abrupt onset of a magnetic interaction corresponding to H{sub eff} (Sn) = 8.3 (7) KOe. The hyperfine field decreases with decreasing temperature reaching 6.0(1) KOe at 16 K. The onset of the magnetic interaction at the {sup 119}Sn nucleus is explained as due to a local depletion of holes following the Sn{sup 4+} doping and …

Reverse trade mission on the drilling and completion of geothermal wells (open access)

Reverse trade mission on the drilling and completion of geothermal wells

This draft report was prepared as required by Task No. 2 of the US Department of Energy, Grant No. DE-FG07-89ID12850 Reverse Trade Mission to Acquaint International Representatives with US Power Plant and Drilling Technology'' (mission). As described in the grant proposal, this report covers the reactions of attendees toward US technology, its possible use in their countries, and an evaluation of the mission by the staff leaders. Note this is the draft report of one of two missions carried out under the same contract number. Because of the diversity of the mission subjects and the different attendees at each, a separate report for each mission has been prepared. This draft report has been sent to all mission attendees, specific persons in the US Department of Energy and Los Alamos National Lab., the California Energy Commission (CEC), and various other governmental agencies.

Survey of digital imaging technology and applications at the Savannah River Site (open access)

Survey of digital imaging technology and applications at the Savannah River Site

An introduction to methods of digital image analysis is presented. Modern commercially available digital image analysis systems are described, along with applications that may be useful to programs at the Savannah River Site (SRS). Systems to aid inspection of tritium reservoir fill stems and a system to enhance inspection of radiographs of pinch weld closures of tritium reservoirs have already been developed at SRS. Modern digital analysis systems based on personal computers have been and are being procured for use in Savannah River Laboratory (SRL) programs, and are finding immediate application in several programs requiring quantitative metallography. It is argued that x-ray computed tomographic imaging, digitally-enhanced ultrasonic testing and acoustic microscopy are three techniques that would enhance not only the research and development efforts at SRL, but also may be applicable in production (for example, in pinch and reclamation welding of tritium reservoirs, and in reactor component inspection) as quality assurance and documentation tools. 21 refs.
