Oxidation/gasification of carbon residue on retorted oil shale. Final report

Description: Studies of the oxidation and gasification of oil shale char were extended to an investigation of the effects of mineral catalysis. Six shales with differing mineral compositions were studied, including samples from the saline zone in the Western Colorado and from the Antrim shales of Michigan. Oxidation kinetics data, corrected for mass transfer effects, were compared for all six samples. A high assay shale from Utah and a sample from the saline zone were found to have the highest oxidation rat… more

Introduction to albedo neutron dosimeters

Description: The design, operation, calibration, and performance of albedo neutron dosimeters are discussed. An albedo neutron dosimeter is designed to measure the flux of thermal neutrons which leave the body when a person is exposed to fast energy neutrons. The fast neutrons are scattered and moderated in the body, and many have lost most of their initial energy and emerge as thermal neutrons. The albedo neutron dosimeter is designed to detect this flux of thermal neutrons by using a thermal neutron detec… more

[Letter from Bill McCarter to Deborah Howes, January 16, 1997]

Description: Photocopy of a letter from Bill McCarter, co-director of North Texas Institute for Educators on the Visual Arts, to Deborah Howes, Associate Museum Educator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The recommendation letter is in regards to the news of the Met's consideration of having one of UNT's graduate students, Rebecca Arkenberg, hold an internship in Howes's department. McCarter goes on to write about how wonderful of a student Arkenberg is and that he'll be sad to see her go but her skills ar… more

Secondary recovery of plutonium and americium from process waste streams by solvent extraction

Description: A solvent extraction process is being evaluated for the secondary recovery of plutonium and americium from Rocky Flats waste streams. The bidentate organophosphorus compounds dihexyl-N,N-diethylcarbamylmethylene phosphonate and its dibutyl analogue have been shown to be selective extractants for the actinides from solutions of nitric acid. The results from laboratory test runs in which the organophosphorus extractants were used for processing secondary waste solutions will be presented. Solvent… more

Etiology of contaminated wounds

Description: The US Department of Energy reports of events that occurred in the chemical processing 200 Areas of the Hanford Site during the period from 1972 through 1986 were reviewed to identify the causes of contaminated wounds. Contaminated wounds were reported in 19 events involving 20 workers. The causal agents (high risk operations) and the root causes were characterized. Emergency actions taken and their efficacy were noted. The 19 wound events were compared with 17 events with the potential for inh… more

Radioiostope studies utilizing a low level whole body counter and clinical application of activation analysis. Progress report

Description: The main emphasis of these studies is the development of methods (hardware and software) for the quantitation of body and specific organ burdens of radioactivity. Current work is directed toward the evaluation of radiation dose distributions in human beings from new radioactive tracers and new procedures used in nuclear medicine. Dosimetry and clinical studies will be carried out on patients using new radiopharmaceuticals where dosimetry data are lacking. Future efforts will be directed toward … more

Integrated system for production of neutronics and photonics calculational constants. Volume 5, Part B. Relativistic transformations between center-of-mass and laboratory systems for two-body nuclear reactions

Description: A technique is described for transforming cross sections and secondary-particle energies between center-of-mass and laboratory systems for two-body nuclear reactions. The derivations of the relativistic transformations needed for this technique are also reviewed.

Separation and Characterization of Coal Derived Components. Quarterly Report, 1 October 1983-31 December 1983

Description: No new field-ionization data was obtained this quarter. For preasphaltenes, elemental analysis data was obtained on Kentucky and Wyodak preasphaltene samples. In conjunction with the preasphaltene work, solubility and thin-layer chromatography experiments were performed. The results indicated that basic alumina would not be useful as a general stationary phase for the separation of preasphaltenes. Several experiments were carried out with Chromasorb T, and the results showed it would be an adeq… more

Failure of latch mechanism for motion control of safety rods

Description: During safety rod tests in K-reactor prior to startup, one safety rod could not be lifted because the button'' broke off and became lodged in the mechanism. Examination of the failed latch assembly along with other assemblies from both K-Area and L-Area revealed several missing buttons as well as severely deformed jaw hanger extensions.'' We participated in the investigation of the damage by request of the Reactor Restart Section. Based on our study of the latch mechanism, the modifications to … more
