Polymerization in Solid Solutions of Acrylamide in Propionamide (open access)

Polymerization in Solid Solutions of Acrylamide in Propionamide

It has previously been shown that the polymer formed in solid state polymerization of acrylamide is amorphous in spite of the fact that the reaction takes place within a crystalline solid. The stage at which it becomes amorphous is not known at present. Work with dilute solid solutions of acrylamide in propionamide suggests that this occurs after the addition of, at most, a very few monomer units.

Separation of Beryllium from Fission Products in a Nitrate Medium - Preliminary Experiments Using Solvent Extraction (open access)

Separation of Beryllium from Fission Products in a Nitrate Medium - Preliminary Experiments Using Solvent Extraction

Preliminary experiments using acetylacetone in the presence of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid to separate major quantities of beryllium from fission products are reported. Using 2M beryllium solutions, decontamination factors of the order of 10/sup 3/ were obtained with trace quantities of the more important fission products. This is sufficiently encouraging for the work to be repeated at higher activity levels.

State of Matter at High Pressure (open access)

State of Matter at High Pressure

Abstract. The region where exact thermodynamic description of the state of matter at high pressure and high temperature is possible is located. In the remaining region various approximate theories and empirical relations are discussed. These considerations are applied to hydrogen to locate the density and pressure at which the diatomic bond collapses. Also the approximate conditions are determined at which no bound electron states exist.

Cost Estimation for Nuclear Reprocessing Plants : a Comparison of Methods (open access)

Cost Estimation for Nuclear Reprocessing Plants : a Comparison of Methods

A comparison of methods of capital cost estimation used for nuclear fuel reprocessing plants shows that, because of the special nature and complexity of such plants, cost estimation methods for conventional chemical plants involving the use of cost factors are not applicable and will give low estimates. Cost factors which are available from other countries where reprocessing plants are installed should be used with caution since those factors apply only for the particular design philosophy used and pertain to industrial conditions which are different in this county. Capital cost estimation methods involving direct take-offs from detailed design drawings are necessary to obtain reliable estimates. The methods of estimating operating costs for nuclear reprocessing and conventional chemical plants are similar.

Third Annual Report: Brackish Water Conversion Demonstration Plant Number 4, Roswell, New Mexico

From Abstract: "Primary interest was placed on the scale formation problem. Significant improvements were made in the process and described in this report. Maintenance requirements were unusually high during the year, primarily as a result of cumulative corrosion damage over the last three years. The most significant damage was in the circulating pumps, the heat exchangers and feed piping. These and other failures are described."

Density and Hydrogen Content of Uranium Oxide Cakes and Slurries (open access)

Density and Hydrogen Content of Uranium Oxide Cakes and Slurries

The work described was undertaken to provide data for nuclear safety studies concerning NPF reprocessing equipment. The original objective was to determine the uranium density and water (hydrogen) content of UO2-H2O mixtures ranging from compact centrifuge cakes to dilute slurries. The scope was later expanded to include mixtures of UO2 with hydrocarbon oil and mixtures of UO3-H2O.

Joint National Institute for Health-Atomic Energy Commission Zonal Centrifuge Development Program, Semiannual Report for Period July 1 - December 31, 1962

This technical report describes development work done on zonal centrifuge systems at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant during the period July 1 to December 31, 1962 under the Joint National Institute for Health-Atomic Energy Commission Zonal Centrifuge Development Program. A basic purpose of this project is to develop new methods for isolating virus particles associated with cancerous cells and tissues. Three classes of rotor systems capable of separating particles ranging in size from whole animal or plant cells to protein or nucleic acid molecules on the basis of either sedimentation rate or density alone have been developed. Experiments with phage particles indicate the feasibility of large-scale virus isolation by continuous-flow centrifugation, followed by isopycnic banding in cesium chloride and velocity sedimentation in sucrose - all steps being carried out sequentially in the same rotor. Zonal rotors using the reorienting gradient principle for molecular separations have been tested to 141,000 rpm (formula). Previous work on zonal centrifugation and future plans for this program are discussed.
