THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FLUIDIZED BED REACTOR FOR THE FLUOROX PROCESS: UNIT OPERATIONS MONTHLY STATUS REPORTS FOR THE PERIOD NOVEMBER 1958 THROUGH MAY 1959

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

Results of four experimentul runs in the Fluorox fluidized bed reactor system are reported. The engineering feasibility of UF/sub 6/ production from UF/ sub 4/ by use of dry air of O/sub 2/, 2UF/sub 4/ + O/sub 2/ = UF/sub 6/+ UO/sub 2/ F/sub 2/, in an Inconel fluidized bed reactor at 800 to 850 deg C was demonstrated in two experimental tests in which greater than 90% of the theoretical amount of UF/sub 6/ was collected or measured. Two runs made with crude UF/sub 4/ (produced from unpurified mill concentrate) as the feed material, showed thnt UF/sub 6/ could … continued below
