Gas utilization in TFTR (Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor) neutral beam injectors

Description: Measurements of gas utilization in a test TFTR neutral beam injector have been performed to study the feasibility of running tritium neutral beams with existing ion sources. Gas consumption is limited by the restriction of 50,000 curies of T/sub 2/ allowed on site. It was found that the gas efficiency of the present long-pulse ion sources is higher than it was with previous short-pulse sources. Gas efficiencies were studied over the range of 35 to 55%. At the high end of this range the neutral … more

Study of net soot formation in hydrocarbon reforming for hydrogen fuel cells. Final report

Description: The hydrogen fuel cell is expected to be a valuable addition to the electric utility industry; however, the current fuel supply availability requires that conventional heavier hydrocarbon fuels also be considered as primary fuels. Typical heavier fuels would be No. 2 fuel oil with its accompanying sulfur impurities, compared with the currently used light hydrocarbon gases. The potential future use of alternate fuels which are rich in aromatics would exacerbate the problems associated with hydro… more

Test Plan: WIPP bin-scale CH TRU waste tests

Description: This WIPP Bin-Scale CH TRU Waste Test program described herein will provide relevant composition and kinetic rate data on gas generation and consumption resulting from TRU waste degradation, as impacted by synergistic interactions due to multiple degradation modes, waste form preparation, long-term repository environmental effects, engineered barrier materials, and, possibly, engineered modifications to be developed. Similar data on waste-brine leachate compositions and potentially hazardous vo… more

Evaluation of gasification and novel thermal processes for the treatment of municipal solid waste

Description: This report identifies seven developers whose gasification technologies can be used to treat the organic constituents of municipal solid waste: Energy Products of Idaho; TPS Termiska Processor AB; Proler International Corporation; Thermoselect Inc.; Battelle; Pedco Incorporated; and ThermoChem, Incorporated. Their processes recover heat directly, produce a fuel product, or produce a feedstock for chemical processes. The technologies are on the brink of commercial availability. This report evalu… more

Ash and pulverized coal deposition in combustors and gasifiers. Quarterly technical progress report, January 1, 1995--March 31, 1995

Description: In the period of January 1, 1995 to March 31, 1995, further progress was made on the analysis of particle transport and deposition processes in a circular duct and in a plane recirculating region. The experimental data for the mean velocity and turbulence intensity fields, as well as those obtained from the STARPIC-RATE code were used in these simulations. A physical-based model for evaluating particle deposition rate in the presence of gravitational and electrical forces in turbulent flows was… more
