Hanford isotope production capabilities for single pass reactors

Description: This report is a summary of several studies made by the author during 1967, and early 1968, while providing technical assistance to the Advanced Concepts and Planning Section. An attempt has been made to reduce the data to a usable form which will enable the reader to estimate the production of a particular isotope and the production of weapons grade plutonium that accompanies the co-product loading for different Uranium-235 concentrations of the driver fuels. It should be emphasized that the p… more

Radiolytic hydrogen production from process vessels in HB line - production rates compared to evolution rates and discussion of LASL reviews

Description: Hydrogen production from radiolysis of aqueous solutions can create a safety hazard since hydrogen is flammable. At times this production can be significant, especially in HB line where nitric acid solutions containing high concentrations of Pu-238, an intense alpha emitter, are processed. The hydrogen production rates from these solutions are necessary for safety analyses of these process systems. The methods and conclusions of hydrogen production rate tests are provided in this report.

Richland isotope production matrix

Description: Isotope production calculations have been prepared in the past to indicate present and potential reactor capability; however, the cases evaluated generally considered production of only one or possibly two isotopes. With the wide variety and potential demand for numerous isotopes, the question arises as to what the production capability would be if several isotopes were being produced at the same time. To study this problem in more detail and determine which of several alternates may be used in… more
