40-MW(E) PROTOTYPE HIGH-TEMPERATURE GAS-COOLED REACTOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. Summary Report for the Period January 1, 1959-December 31, 1959 and Quarterly Progress Report for the Period October 1, 1959-December 31, 1959

Description: The HTGR prototype plant (Peach Bottom Power Reactor) is being designed to produce steam at l450 psi and 1000 deg F and to have a net capacity of 40 Mw(e). The fuel temperatures and gas pressures will be approximately the same as those required for larger plants. The reactor data and operating conditions for the graphite-clad core are given. The reactor and primary coolant systems are described. The prospects for development of the graphite-clad fuel element in time for use in the first loading… more

241-SX tank farm waste storage

Description: Salt wastes from the Redox solvent extraction process have been routed to the 241-SX tank farm for storage since May 21, 1954. Tanks in this farm contain wastes from three types of irradiated uranium processing: (1) low (approximately 250 MWD/T) and (2) high (approximately 600 MWD/T) natural uranium; and (3) E-metal. It is estimated that approximately 1.6 Kgs of Am-Cm, 17 Kgs of Np-237, 20 Kgs of Pu and 8 tons of uranium are present in the sludges from wastes generated through 4-30-64. A total … more

710 Reactor thermoelectric space power system concepts

Description: Declassified 21 Sep 1973. A preliminary evaluation of the use of the 710 Reactor in an auxiliary space power system utilizing thermoelectric converters has been performed in order to determine feasibility of the concept and to define the required 710 fuel system operating conditions. Included are results of thermodynamic cycle studies and characteristics of the major components for a range of power levels. Configuration arrangements for man rated and instrument rated 50 kw(e) systems are shown.… more

Absorption and Turnover Rates of Iron Measured by the Whole Body Counter

Description: Human iron metabolism has been extensively studied in the past twenty-five years with the radioisotopes iron⁵⁵ and iron⁵⁹. Before the availability of the whole body counter, however, iron absorption studies were performed by the indirect methods of fecal assay of unabsorbed radioiron, and estimation of red cell incorporation of absorbed tracer. The few long-term excretion studies performed required numerous assumptions, since human iron excretion was less well understood. Whole body counting pr… more

Absorption-Multistage Flash Distillation Process

Description: "The major factors which influence the cost of water production from sea water by distillation methods are (1) the cost of fuel or energy required by the distilling plant, and (2) the required capital investment. Preliminary studies on the application of absorption or solution cycles to distillation methods for saline water conversion indicated that the fuel cost or thermal economy of a distillation plant could be improved by combining the distillation process with an absorption or solution cyc… more

Activity of irradiated regular metal in buckets

Description: The potential of shipping a bucket of metal that has not had sufficient decay time is a common problem to all Reactor Processing Operations. The only method at present to assure shipping adequately decayed metal is by procedural control. This study was performed to determine the feasibility of establishing decay time for irradiated metal in buckets by radiation activity measurements.

Additional Miscellaneous Tools in the HRT Core

Description: This memorandum presents a description of several additional miscellaneous HRT core maintenance tools, not in an earlier report (1). These tools were used in the removal of the cut up diffuser plates, probing the core wall, gauging the size of the holes, and other simple tasks. Function, design, and operation are described for the following items.
