Chemical Technology Division Pilot Plant Section Report for November, 1950- January, 1951

Description: Technical report presenting a summary of the flowsheets, equipment, and progress for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) pilot plant development of the Purex Process and of the ORNL Metal Recovery Program. As of this report, conversion of the Purex pilot plant equipment in Buildings 3019 and 3503 is 90% complete. The building structure for the ORNL Waste Metal Recovery plant had been completed, and 15% of the process equipment had been installed. The first hot runs for this plant were sche… more

Heat and Free Energy of the Neptunium (IV)-(V) Couple in Perchloric Acid

Description: Abstract: "The potential of the Np(IV)-Np(V) couple is not directly measurement since the couple does not establish reversible equilibrium at an inert electrode. Reproducible potential measurements were obtainable, however, in solutions containing Np(IV), Np(V), Pe(II), and Pe(III) ions in oxidation-reduction equilibrium. The expected fourth power hydrogen ion dependence of the Np(IV)-Np(V) couple was confirmed over the range 0.25-1.0 molar perchloric acid concentration. The heat of the reactio… more
