A brief study of the nitric acid leaching of sheared Zircaloy and stainless-steel-clad UO/sub 2/ fuels was carried out. The study was intended to demonstrate the leaching process and the use of a removable dissolver canister for transport and charge duty. In addition, the effect of sheared element length on leaching time cycles was studied. (L.T.W.)
