AN INFORMATION STORAGE AND RETRIEVAL SYSTEM FOR IRRADIATION EFFECTS IN METALS

Description: An information storage and retrieval system (PIC) was developed, utilizing the IBM 7090 computer, for handling data pertaining to the effects of neutron irradiation on metals. The input includes a reference identification, an appropriate abstract or extract summarizing the article, code identification parameters analogous to those used by the ASM-SLA Literature Classification System, and special codes identifying relevant irradiation and testing parameters. The output contains the same data plu… more

Status report of irradiated NPR fuel element rupture studies in the IRP

Description: The Irradiated Rupture Prototype (IRP) has been used for rupture testing irradiated NPR prototype fuel elements. Most of the tests have been made to determine the rupture effect of different reactor exposures, fuel element geometries and water cooldown rates following the start of the rupture. This report summarizes the results obtained to date, mentions where information is lacking and gives further tests scheduled for the IRP.

Precipitation of cerium sulfate

Description: Cerium sulfate purified by D2EHPA in Semiworks can be precipitated by adjusting pH to between 1 and 2 in tank 6 with 50% caustic. The solution can then be transferred through tank 1 to tank 67, where sodium bisulfate is added to make the solution 0.5M sulfate. A stoichiometric amount (mole for mole) of 50% caustic is added to just neutralize the sodium bisulfate. The precipitate is digested one hour at 60 C, then filtered.

Probability of ruthenium reduction in H-4 by self-radiation

Description: The following calculations have been made at the request of H.R. Schmidt to determine the probability that self-radiation may play a substantial role in the decomposition of the ruthenium tetroxide in the reflux scrubber, section of the Redox Ruthenium Oxidizer (H-4). The validity of the derived data necessarily depends upon the correctness of the basic assumptions made with regard to process conditions and to possible radiation-activated mechanisms of disintegration. It is estimated that the e… more

Fallout concentrations of 12 radionuclides in air: 1962 through mid-1964

Description: Newly developed multidimensional gamma-ray spectrometric counting techniques permit the direct measurement of twelve fallout radionuclides on air filters. Observed concentrations of Be{sup 7}, Na{sub 22}, Mn{sup 54}, Co{sup 60}, Y{sup 88}, Zr{sub 95}Nb{sup 95}, Ru{sup 106}, Sb{sup 124}, Sb{sup 125}, Cs{sup 134}, Cs{sup 137} and Ce{sup 144} during the past two and a half years help explain the origin and fallout rates of the trace radionuclides in air. 14 refs., 1 tab.

Review of effluent disposal practices in N Reactor Department

Description: A survey has been conducted of current methods of disposal of radioactive, chemical, and sanitary wastes used both at the 100 Area and 300 Area sites of N Reactor Department Operations. In addition, liquid storage facilities have been surveyed for situations which might result in river water pollution. The survey and this report have been prepared in response to the request of the Manager, Richland Operations Office of the Atomic Energy Commission in accordance with Executive Order 11258.

Production Test No. 105-511-A -- Irradiation of stainless steel samples

Description: This study soughs to determine the x-ray activity of two samples of stainless steel prepared from tubing used in the ANL-140, in-pile experiment (P-13). This information is necessary in order to predict the activity of the P-13 rig at the time of removal. The primary contribution to the over-all activity will be from Ta{sup 181} and Co{sup 59} impurities.

Flowsheet No. 1: Cesium isolation and packaging

Description: An engineering flowsheet has been prepared for the conversion of an aqueous slurry of cesium-zinc-ferrocyanide into a dry cesium chloride product by the calcination process. Flowsheet No. 1 defines a six-step batch-type calcination operation for processing the slurry into a dry powder for offsite shipment in bulk containers. Some of the advantages to this process are as follows: Product losses are expected to be small, estimated to be less than 0.03 percent; the equipment required to process a … more

Results of a test of sampling in I{sup 131} plumes

Description: On September 13 and 14, 1962, 8.3 curies of iodine-131 were emitted from the Hanford Redox Plant at a rate of from 0.35 to 0.65 curies per hour for a period of approximately 18 hours. During the emission, the plume trajectories were plotted from meteorological data and samples were collected across the predicted plume trajectories at several altitudes and at distances up to 50 miles from the Plant. Filter, charcoal trap, and air samples were collected during the emission using aircraft; and cau… more
