A Countercurrent Solid-Liquid Contactor for Continuous Ion Exchange

Description: From abstract: "A continuous countercurrent solid-liquid contactor has been developed which retains the desirable features of the conventional fixed bed and gains the advantages of countercurrent flow. It can be adapted to many solid-liquid mass-transfer processes such as ion exchange, silica gel adsorption, and ore leaching."

Laboratory Development of the MTR-RaLa Process for the Production of Barium140

Description: From abstract: "This report presents the laboratory development of the MTR-RaLa Process for the production of barium140 from Materials Testing Reactor assemblies." The laboratory studied four possible chemical schemes with the final process being chosen "on the basis of chemical yield and purity of product, ease of recovery of uranium235, simplicty of equipment, and overall time required for processing" (from introduction).

Reaction of Graphic with Sodium

Description: Most of the publications in the open literature available to us agree that sodium does not readily react with graphite, though potassium, rubidium, and cesium readily enter between the planes of the graphite lattice. In view of the conflicting evidence available, it seems inadvisable without very extensive further study to consider the use of graphite in direct contact with liquid sodium, except under very mild conditions of temperature and irradiation, and then only with very pure sodium and c… more

The Isothermal Transformation of Metastable Beta Uranium Single Crystals

Description: Abstract: "The transformation of metastable beta uranium crystals was found to proceed by a martensitic reaction at room temperature. The features of the transformation of particular interest were that individual uranium martensite plates formed isothermally and grew at a slow rate isothermally."

Gamma-Induced Light Production in Water

Description: This report follows and discusses an experimental investigation of gamma-induced light production in water, focusing on the establishment of the mechanism of the light production process and the measurement of the radiant flux associated with a gamma-ray source placed in water.
