HOT CELL DEMONSTRATION OF ZIRFLEX AND SULFEX PROCESSES. Report No. 3 (open access)

HOT CELL DEMONSTRATION OF ZIRFLEX AND SULFEX PROCESSES. Report No. 3

ABS>Hot cell demonstration of the Zirflex decladding process coupled with a modified Purex solvent extraction process was completed using specimens of Zircaloy-clad UO/sub 2/ irradiated to levels of 6150-14,600 Mwd/TU. Soluble losses of uranium and plutonium to the decladding solutions were about 0.05%. Centrifugation of the decladding solution is probably necessary to remove up to 1% of the UO/sub 2/ present as fines resulting from the fracture of low (93 to 95%) density pellets; high (96%) density pellets produced few fines. Approximately 5 hours were required to dissolve the UO/sub 2/ core material (14,000 Mwd/TU) in 4M HNO/sub 3/ versus 6 to 7 hours for unirradiated pellets to produce a solvent extraction feed of 100 g U/l and 3M HNO/sub 3/. Gamma decontamination factors for uranium in the Purex CU stream and plutonium in the BP stream were increased by factors of 2 to 10 from the normal 1.3 x 10/sup 3/ and 2.1 x 10/sup 3/, respectively, by pretreatment of the solvent extraction feed with dincetyl monoxime or its degradation product, oxalic acid. Preliminary data indicate radiation damage degrades the solvent, 30% TBP diluted with Amsco 125- 82, upon one pass through the mixer-settler banks with feed solutions irradiated …

DISSOLUTION OF BeO-AND Al$sub 2$O$sub 3$-BASE REACTOR FUEL ELEMENTS. PART I (open access)

DISSOLUTION OF BeO-AND Al$sub 2$O$sub 3$-BASE REACTOR FUEL ELEMENTS. PART I

Aqueous methods for recovering uranium from BeO- and Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/- base gas-cooled-reactor fuel elements are being evaluated. Two methods for processing Hastelloy-X--clad pelletized BeO-base fuels containing 60 to 70% UO/ sub 2/, such as the GCRE and MGCR, seem feasible. One method involves mechanical stripping or chopping of the cladding followed by leaching of the uranium from the fuel pellets with boiling 6-l3M HNO/sub 3/. In the other method the cladding and UO/sub 2/ are dissolved in boiling 2M HNO/sub 3/-4M HCl. In either case, most of the BeO matrix remains as an undissolved residue. Pellets containing 70% UO/sub 3/ dissolved completely in less than 20 hr in boiling 8M HNO/sub 3/ containing either 2M H/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ or 0.5M HF, producing solutions containing 4 g of uranium per liter. Fuels of high BeO content, e.g. BeO--5% UO/sub 2/, dissolved only slowly in boiling aqueous reagents. Highest initial rates were in sulfuric acid solutions, log (Rate, mg min/sup -1/cm/sup -2/) = 0.223 (H/sub 2/SO/ sub 4, M) - 2.8l and in HF--NH/sub 4/F solutions. ln boiling 5-8M NH/sub 4/F the initial dissolution rate increased from 0.07 to 3.5 mg min/sup -1/cm/sup -2/ as the HF concentration increased from 0 …

Radiochemical Processing-Off-Site Transportation and Ultimate Storage Problems (open access)

Radiochemical Processing-Off-Site Transportation and Ultimate Storage Problems

Safe and economic methods of handling radioactive materials off-site are required for the successful operation of nuclear chemical plants. These occasions arise in the shipment of spent fuel, radioactive, isotopes, and liquid wastes. An unsolved problem exists in the development of techniques and sites for the final disposal of waste products. (auth)

Stress Analysis of the PM-2A Reactor Vessel (open access)

Stress Analysis of the PM-2A Reactor Vessel

The stress analysis performed on the PM-2A reactor vessel and cover is discussed. The maximum combined stress (51,000 psi) occurred in the studs after reaching steady-state conditions. A fatigue analysis indicated that this stress could be safely applied 2500 times, and since the studs do not approach 2500 cycles from initial stud tightening to steady-state conditions, they should not suffer any fatigue damage.

Equilibrium panel surface temperatures in the SNAP-2 instrument compartment (open access)

Equilibrium panel surface temperatures in the SNAP-2 instrument compartment

By equating net radiation to space to I/sup 2/R heating in the SNAP-2 instrument compartments, and neglecting internal radiation between compartments, the panel surface equilibrium temperatures were computed for hot and cold temperature extremes. These extremes are defined by: (1) cold - pre-start phase in the shade, (2) hot - full power phase facing the sun. The results of the heat balances for hottest and coldest cases are presented graphically. These figures relate the equilibrium surface temperatures to the I/sup 2/R heat load dissipated by the panel surface for hot and cold orbits before and after startup. Included as parameters are effective panel area (dependent on Agena-interface design details) and the ..cap alpha../epsilon ratio for the surface coating. If ..cap alpha../epsilon = .3/.9 and A = 1 ft/sup 2/, the extremes of temperatures suffered are from -191/sup 0/F to +212/sup 0/F. This study shows that the normal R/C surface coating (..cap alpha../epsilon = .3/.9) is acceptable regarding allowable maximum surface temperatures, if the effective panel area is not less than 1 ft/sup 2/. It also indicates that further work is warranted regarding internal radiative distribution of heat in order to limit the lowest temperatures to -65/sup 0/F.
