Chemical Technology Division, Unit Operations Section Monthly Progress Report, February 1962

Description: In the operation of 6-in.-dia. foam-liquid columns, increase in either the liquid flow or foam flow caused increased channeling with increased HTU. Flooding values for the Immi mixer-settler were obtalned using the amine extraction final cycle Pu flowsheet. Two tests of the addltlon of uranyl nitrate to a thoria sol were made, one of which gave a good product and the other a product which disintegrated during calcination. Material balances for 22 waste calcination runs are summarized. (auth)

Chemical Technology Division, Unit Operations Section Monthly Progress Report, June 1961

Description: An interfacial viseometer was built for use in an interfacial phenomena study. Installation of a 6-in.-ID foam separation column system was completed. The dispersiondrying-sintering characteristics of six low-nitrate batches of thoria sol material were studied. The average effective porosity of the CuO pellets used for reactor helium purification was determined to be 0.0545 for H/ sub 2/ transport and 0.0526 for CO transport. In continuous Zirflex dissolution studies, no H/sub 2/O/sub 2/ decomp… more

A TRANSISTORIZED ALPHA COUNTER FOR AN ALPHA GAUGE

Description: A transistorized instrument prototype was designed and constructed to replace a vacuum-tube instrument in an alpha gauge, which measures the thickness density of gases. The instrument amplifies, shapes, discriminates, and counts alpha pulses from a Au-Si surface-barrier detector exposed to an alpha source in a gas-filled chamber. The circuit consists of a charge-sensitive preamplifier, a main amplifier with pulse clipping, a Schmitt trigger, a diode pump, and a count rate meter. Preliminary tes… more

Studies of Nuclear Resonant Absorption of Gamma Rays. Quarterly Report No. 4 Covering Period June 1, 1961 to August 31, 1961

Description: The effect of polarizing mngnetic field intensity on the nuclear resonant absorption was studied by varying the field strength at a 1-mc Co/sup 57/ source from 0 to 1000 gauss while keeping the absorber between the poles of a magnet having a fixed field of 800 gauss. The rates of resonance absorption change with field intensity were greatest in the region of 300 to 1000 gauss, and the% nuclear resonant absorption for 1000-gauss fields was 8.5 and 26% for perpendicular and parallel fields, respe… more

A STUDY OF THE SHIELD OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS TRIGA MARK II RESEARCH REACTOR

Description: Detailed measurements were made of the fast-neutron and gamma dose rates and the thermal-neutron fluxes existing at the surfaces of the biological shield of the University of Illinois TRIGA Mark II Research Reactor. Dose rates and fluxes were found to be extremely low. A comparison was made by means of threshold foil techniques between the fast-neutron flux in a beam hole of the reactor during steady-state operation at 1 kw and during a nominal 250 Mw, 30 msec pulse produced by rapid insertion … more

Vapor Containment in the Oak Ridge Research Reactor

Description: Containment of the ORR is attained by means of a ventilation system which is capable of exhausting air from the building at a rate sufficient to ensure that all leakage of air at ground level is into the building. The exhaust air is treated by scrubbing and filtration and is discharged from a large stack at a height and velocity sufficient to guarantee that meteorological dispersion will reduce the resulting concentration of radioactive material to an acceptable level. Factors involved in selec… more

Problems Encountered During Four Years of ORR Operation

Description: The over-all design and operation of ORR is reviewed in the light of four years of operating experience. Items discussed consist of the reactor components and instrumentation, reactor and pool cooling systems (including system cleanup), the emergency systems for electric power and reactor cooling, the waste-disposal systems (liquid, gaseous, and solid), and the building, itself. The ORR was the first of a class of reactors which combined the features of both the pool-reactor and tank-reactor ty… more

OGRE-P1, A Monte Carlo Program for Computing Gamma-Ray Transmission Through Laminated Slabs

Description: A Monte Carlo IBM-7090 program (OGRE-P1) was written for calculation of the dose rate on one side of a slab owing to an isotropic, cosine, or collimated monoenergetic gamma radiation source on the other side of the slab. A maximum of 50 homogeneous regions are permitted. (auth)

The Solvent Extraction of Thorium by Thenoyltrifluoroacetone and the Influence of Aqueous Complexation by the Chelating Agent

Description: Technical report investigating the solvent extraction of thorium. The solvent extraction of thorium by the chelating agent, thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA), has proved to be a very effective tool for studying the complex ion chemistry of thorium. This study led to the establishment of the existence of aqueous complexation by the chelating agent.

The Brookhaven Chemonuclear in-Pile Test Loop

Description: Technical report outlining the plan to develop the Brookhaven chemonuclear in-pile test loop because the interest in utilizing reactor radiation energy (fission-fragment recoil and neutron-gamma) for production of chemicals has developed to the point where a loop to study chemonuclear system in a reactor under dynamic conditions is necessary.

Supplementary instructions and specifications for preparation of overbore fuel, PT-IP-381-A-FP

Description: Overbore fuel for charging under the proposed Plant Improvement Program is fabricated according to the standard ``F`` process with a few exceptions. Due to the size and weight of individual components and cores, it was necessary to modify the process and change several of the process times to produce a fuel of equal or better quality than standard production. The additions and modifications to the standard lead-dip fuel element manufacturing process are required for production of Model CVIN fue… more

Anion exchange flow sheets and equipment for recovery of Task I filtrates

Description: The filtrate stream from the precipitation--filtration step of the Button Line process must be recycled to recovery operations to reclaim residual plutonium. Present practice is to transfer the filtrates to Recuplex, concentrate by a factor of 6 to 10, and blend into the feed stream for solvent extraction purification. Limited tankage is available for solution storage. Interruption of Recuplex operations necessitates termination of operations in the precipitation-filtration steps and other Butt… more
