Report issued by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory discussing the Research Reactor (ORR). General descriptions of the ORR are presented. This report includes tables, and illustrations.

Technical report outlining the rate of production of modified MTR type fuel elements for the Bulk Shielding Facility has proceeded. Includes compatibility test that were started as a guide in the selection of materials suitable for fuel-element fabrication. [From Summary]

Technical report presenting a summary of the flowsheets, equipment, and progress for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) pilot plant development of the Purex Process and of the ORNL Metal Recovery Program. As of this report, conversion of the Purex pilot plant equipment in Buildings 3019 and 3503 is 90% complete. The building structure for the ORNL Waste Metal Recovery plant had been completed, and 15% of the process equipment had been installed. The first hot runs for this plant were scheduled for June, 1951. [From Abstract; Introduction]
