Irradiation Loop Studies of Organic Reactor Coolants Quarterly Report: July 1-September 30, 1961.

Description: Irradiation of Santowax OMP was initiated in the M.I.T. Reactor Organic In-Pile Loop on August 9, 1961 and is continuing. As of September 30, 1961 the total absorbed dose to an average inventory of 5000 grams of coolant was 79,900 watt-hrs. In this same period of time approximately 35% of the terphenyls in the coolant have been degraded.

Organic Coolant Reclamation. First Quarterly Progress Report for December 15, 1958 - March 15, 1959

Description: In research on developing a suitable method for organic coolant reclamation, several lines of attack are being followed simultaneously. Model compounds have been utilized in initial experiments. For the vapor phase hydrogenation-cracking study, apparatus has been constructed and several catalysts screened. A nickel on kieselguhr catalyst has been shown to be active in converting biphenyl to a mixture of benzene and toluene. Liquid phase hydrogenation techniques are under study for partial reduc… more

Reclamation of Polyphenyl Nuclear Reactor Coolant by Solvent Treatment

Description: Laboratory studies were conducted to develop methods to reclaim degraded terphenyl nuclear reactor coolant. A solvent treatment process to reclaim high boiler or spent coolant is described. A preliminary evaluation of the reclamation process is presented. Technical evaluation of products as well as a theoretical analysis of the effects of reclaimed coolant on coolant decomposition rate and make-up rate is reported. A detailed description of all experimental work is also given.

Studies of the Reclamatio of Organic Nuclear Reactor Coolant by Partial Hydrogenation of Polyphenyls

Description: The partial hydrogenation of o-, m-, and p-terphenyl at high temperatures (200-275°C) and pressures (1500-2500 psig) was studied to determine the initial path of the hydrogenation. These model studies were extended to damaged nuclear reactor coolant (high boiler or polyphenyl) in an effort to develop a reclamation process.

Final Progress Report on Organic Coolant Technology-Film Formation Studies

Description: Experiments with various fractions from tritium labelled OMRE used coolant show that the oxygen-rich fractions contribute heavily to film formation in the Pyrolytic Capsule Fouling Test (PCFT). These fractions were not necessarily particulate matter or iron laden.

11th Quarterly Progress Report Organic Coolant Reclamation, 15 December 1961 to 15 March 1962

Description: The solvent distribution reclamation process using 5, 10, 15, 22, 30, 40 and 50 wt % Core II HB in Santovax-OMP has been accomplished. Cost comparisons of several technically feasible reclamation processes, presented in an earlier report, were reevaluated and are tabulated

Organic Coolants and Moderators for Nuclear Reactors : a Literature Search

Description: A literature search was made of Nuclear Science Abstracts , Vols . 12 and 13 , for information on the following organic coolants and moderators for nuclear reactors : biphenyl , diphenyl methane , Dowtherm A , a phenyl naphthalene, and terphenyl. The properties covered include: thermal and irradiation stability, methods for restoring desired properties to used material, heat transfer data, operating information, hazards and toxicity. 111 references to documents, journal, and books are listed.

Organic Coolant Reclamation Annual Report : December 15, 1958 through December 14, 1959

Description: Potential methods have been examined for the reclamation of high boiler arising from the degradation of polyphenol materials in use as reactor coolants and moderators. To define the chemistry of potential reclamation processes, model polyphenol compounds were used. These include biphenyl, o, m and p-terphenyl, and p-quaterphenyl. Emphasis has been on hydrocracking, redistribution (reaction with benzene), and partial reduction. Preliminary study has been made of the application these techniques … more

Organic Reactor Coolant Studies

Description: An experimental program was carried out to study (1) the mechanisms of fouling film formation in terphenyl coolants, (2) the corrosion of metals by the coolant, and (3) the pyrolytic and radiolytic stability of condensed ring polyaromatic compounds. This work was done in support of the Organic Cooled Reactor program and was terminated prior to its completion. No fouling film deposits, or only barely detectable traces of alpha Fe, were found by x-ray diffraction measurements of type 304 SS heate… more
