Foot & Mouth Disease & Ulcerative/Vesicular Rule-outs: Challenges Encountered in Recent Outbreaks

Description: Foot and mouth disease (FMD) is a highly infectious and contagious viral disease affecting bovidae (cattle, zebus, domestic buffaloes, yaks), sheep, goats, swine, all wild ruminants and suidae. Camelidae (camels, dromedaries, llamas, vicunas) have low susceptibility. Foot and mouth disease is caused by a RNS virus of the family Picornaviridae, genus Aphthovirus. There are seven immunologically distinct serotypes: A, O, C, SAT1, SAT2, SAT3, Asia 1. Foot and mouth disease causes significant econo… more

Characterization of uranium contaminated soils from DOE Fernald Environmental Management Project Site: Results of Phase 1 characterization

Description: The Integrated Demonstration (ID) for remediation of uranium- contaminated soils has been established by the DOE Office of Technology Development. The Fernald (Feed Materials Production Center) site was selected as the DOE facility for the field demonstration. The principle objective of this ID is to evaluate and compare the versatility, efficiency, and economics of various technologies that may be combined into systems for the removal of uranium from contaminated soils. Several leaching soluti… more

CITRIC ACID AS A SET RETARDER FOR CALCIUM ALUMINATE PHOSPHATE CEMENTS.

Description: Citric acid added as set retarder significantly contributed to enhancing the setting temperature and to extending the thickening time of a calcium aluminate phosphate (CaP) geothermal cement slurry consisting of calcium aluminate cement (CAC) as the base reactant and sodium polyphosphate (NaP) solution as the acid reactant. The set-retarding activity of citric acid was due to the uptake of Ca{sup 2+} ions from the CAC by carboxylic acid groups within the citric acid. This uptake led to the prec… more

Effects of citric acid demineralization on heats of immersion of Wyodak and Illinois No. 6 coals in strong acids

Description: An important component of our last report was the discovery that demineralization of Argonne Wyodak coal by citric acid washing had changed the heats of immersion of this coal in seven strong acids very significantly. The results were so dramatic that the whole series of experiments with this demineralized coal was repeated and confirmed. Several of the {Delta}H{sub imm}s were reduced as much as 30% while those with arylsulfonic acids actually increased. The mineral content of coals can be as h… more

Peroxide-Inhibited Decontamination Solutions for Carbon Steel and Other Metals in the Gas-Cooled Reactor Program. Progress Report, November 1959-July 1962

Description: A search for solutions suitable for dissolving uranium dioxide powder or lumps and yet noncorrosive enough to be used for decontaminating the carbon steel EGCR charge and service machines resulted in the development of buffered oxalate solutions of controlled temperature and pH, with hydrogen peroxide added to act as corrosion inhibitor, UO/sub 2/ oxidizer, and decontamination aid. Hydrogen peroxide acts either as a corrosion promoter or inhibitor, depending on factors such as its concentration… more

ELECTROLYSIS AND EXTRACTION OF SOME LANTHANONS FROM AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTES WITH LITHIUM AMALGAM

Description: Phase transfer of Pr by electrolysis at a lithium amalgam cathode was found to be linear with time for fixed electrolysis conditions. The rate of electrolysis of Pr decreased with increasing lithium citrate concentration. Extraction of Pm from Pm--Gd mixtures with saturated lithium amalgam was found to vary with virtually any change in electrolyte composition. The Pm extraction was first order with respect to Pm concentration, but the extraction rate decreased with increasing excess citrate con… more

Release of organic reagents from solidified decontamination wastes

Description: In order to provide technical information needed by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission to evaluate the adequacy of near-surface disposal of decontamination wastes, Brookhaven National Laboratory has measured the release of organic reagents from solidified simulated decontamination wastes. The waste streams consisted of either mixed-bed ion-exchange resins or anion exchange resins equilibrated with EDTA, oxalic acid, citric acid, picolinic acid or simulated LOMI decontamination reagent. These … more
