Corrosion of Type 347 Stainless Steel in the Uranium-Derby Pickle Bath (open access)

Corrosion of Type 347 Stainless Steel in the Uranium-Derby Pickle Bath

Abstract: In one of the final stages of the process at the Mallinckrodt Uranium Refining Center, a 45 per cent nitric acid solution at about 170 F is used to pickle the calcined magnesium fluoride scale off the uranium derbies. The increase in the fluoride-ion content of the bath tends to promote corrosion of the Type 347 stainless tanks. This attack becomes excessive if 0.3 g/liter of fluoride ion or more is present. It was found that if aluminum ion is added to the solution the corrosiveness of the bath can be controlled. Two or three times as much aluminum ion as fluoride ion present is found satisfactory at 170 F. Indications are that the tying up of the fluoride-ion by the complexion [AlF6]8 is responsible for the corrosion control.

Evaluation of Methods of Brazing Aluminum Spacing Fins to Flat-Plate Aluminum-Clad Fuel Elements (open access)

Evaluation of Methods of Brazing Aluminum Spacing Fins to Flat-Plate Aluminum-Clad Fuel Elements

Abstract: "Four brazing methods and one other joining process were evaluated for the joining of aluminum spacer fins to flat-plate aluminum-clad fuel elements. None of these methods appear completely suitable for use in a mass-production operation. Furnace brazing and salt-bath brazing were most promising. However, the mechanical problems involved in the application of either process deter their recommendation. Resistance brazing and torch-brazing were proven impractical. The great difference in mass between the two pieces being joined prevents the use of either the resistance or torch method. Pressure bonding is not applicable because of the excessive deformation of parts being joined."

Disposal of irradiated waste Ink'' solution (Production Test 105-529-A) (open access)

Disposal of irradiated waste Ink'' solution (Production Test 105-529-A)

Boron solution circulated through special poison tubes to achieve more variable control of neutron flattening'' was tested in the 100-DR Hanford reactor. About 2700 gallons of irradiated waste Ink solution from Production Test 105-529-A was discharged to an underground crib at 100-DR, after radiochemical analyses and evaluation of radiation protection aspects by the Radiological Sciences Department. In case the Ink method is considered for production use at Hanford in the future, further biological and biophysical study is recommended to determine whether irradiated waste Ink solution may be disposed of into the Columbia River, into the ground near the river, or into the ground several miles from the river. 10 refs, 2 tabs.

An Enhanced Magnetic Mirror Machine

Abstract: "A dc magnetic mirror machine has been built and tested by the ARC Research Group. Radiofrequency enhancement has been included in the design through the use of rf plates in the vacuum chamber of the machine. For the proton beams of the order of 1[mu]a, the mirror action has been observed as a function of both the rf voltage and the magnitude of the mirror field relative to the main magnetic field. Current measurements were performed with the aid of a Faraday cup with suitable bias grids."

The Production of Deuterons in High-Energy Nucleon Bombardment of Nuclei, and Its Bearing on Nuclear Charge Distribution (open access)

The Production of Deuterons in High-Energy Nucleon Bombardment of Nuclei, and Its Bearing on Nuclear Charge Distribution

Thesis discussing the study of deuterons produced at wide angles to a beam of 300 Mev neutrons and a beam of 300 Mev protons. It was observed that the deuterons are formed by "a two step process in which the incident nucleon, or its collision partner, is scattered and then picks up in the same nucleus." Some tritons are also observed, and it is thought that they are formed by the same process as the deuterons. From these findings, the author concludes that "for heavy nuclei, there is a nuclear skin rich in neutrons."

An Introduction to the Purex Plant

The intent of this manual is to present a description of the main process building, equipment, and auxiliary facilities as well as a process summary. Material is of a scope nature with more detail devoted to features unlike those of existing separations systems. An attempt is made to convey some of the basic design philosophy and the problems encountered in the development of design criteria. This information is written primarily for Separations Section supervision who have not had an opportunity to become conversant with the Purex Project. The manual may also be of assistance in orientation and training of personnel. In order to avoid repetition and duplication of effort, one line service diagrams, equipment sketches, tables, and detailed data are not a part of this manual.

Pilot-plant studies of mercury-catalyzed dissolving of aluminum-jacketed fuel elements (open access)

Pilot-plant studies of mercury-catalyzed dissolving of aluminum-jacketed fuel elements

The objective of the experimental studies reported herein was to demonstrate the laboratory-developed mercury-catalyzed dissolving procedure on a pilot-plant scale by conducting a series of test dissolutions of aluminum-jacketed, unirradiated uranium in the 150-gallon downdraft type semiworks dissolver in 321 Building. It was desired to establish: (1) the effect of the larger-scale operation on time cycle; (2) dissolution rates of aluminum and uranium, (3) controllability of the reactions, and (4) the concentration of mercury catalyst required.
