Expanded Scale Process Development of the Electrolytic Production of Thorium From ThCl$sub 4$ in Externally Heated Electrolytic Cells (open access)

Expanded Scale Process Development of the Electrolytic Production of Thorium From ThCl$sub 4$ in Externally Heated Electrolytic Cells

The commercial feasibility of the electrolytic process for Th production has been demonstrated. The cell produced 7 lb. of good quality metal per hour. A cathode cooling system was developed. The major construction materials, Ni and graphite, were satisfactory. The process yield was 86%. (T.R.H.)

TEMPERATURE DISTRIBUTION AND THERMAL STRESS IN REACTOR CORE APPR-1

The feasibility of the Liquid Metal Fuel Reactor (LMFR) proposed by Brookhaven National Laboratory as a source of electric power was thoroughly investigated. The reference design is based on an LMFR using U dissolved in Bi as the fuel and a thorium bismuthide in Bi slurry as the blanket. Detailed estimates of power costs are presented for electrical power stations from 226 to 904 Mw net electrical capability. (C.W.H.)

Cryogenic Data Book (open access)

Cryogenic Data Book

Increased activities in Cryogenic Engineering have brought about the need for a compilation of available data. The purpose of the Cryogenic Data Book is to provide a condensed source of reliable data and reference information for those working in the cryogenic field. Specifically the data were compiled with a view toward the design of liquid hydrogen bubble chambers.

A LOW WASTE VOLUME, FIRST CYCLE, 1A PUREX FLOW SHEET (open access)

A LOW WASTE VOLUME, FIRST CYCLE, 1A PUREX FLOW SHEET

The KPL No. 6, first-cycle Purex lA flow sheet is presented as an examaple of waste volume reduction through optimum solvent-extraction flow sheet design. Calculated on the basis of previous flow sheets, a 54 to 69% reduction of first-cycle waste storage volume is achieved by taming advantage of the extractability and reflux of nitric acid in TBP systems to provide adequate salting while minimizing the amount of acid going to waste. Although this report is concerned only with the first Purex cycle, the calculations are equally valid for the second U cycle, and the principles presented are applicable to similar nitnic acid-salted TBP systems.
