Carbon dioxide for pH adjustment 100-K Reactors

Description: This report presents the results of a recent analysis to determine if there is a practical method for using carbon dioxide for pH adjustment at the 100-K Reactors. Carbon dioxide could be recovered from the boiler stack gas and introduced into the K Reactor process water. The approximately $240,000 installation cost would be repaid in about one year by the reduction of sulfuric acid costs. The proposed system would consist of a blower, a purification system, and a distribution system for conduc… more

Investigation of terminal corrosion rates in aluminum process tubes: Interim report, PT-IP-674

Description: Each of the 25 monitor tubes at B and D reactors have been gauged four to six times since they were installed in late 1961 or early 1962. Since October, 1962, the WTG data indicates the average corrosion rate, is 0.25 to 0.30 mils per month. The corrosion rate of the thinnest tube is about the same as the average tube. As expected, the corrosion rate is low and believed to be a measure of top-wall corrosion. It is estimated that it will take approximately one more year (at 6.6 pH) before the bo… more

Criticality-Accident Dosimetry Studies

Description: Experiments were carried out to (1) explore possibilities for developing a less expensive device than the Hurst threshold detector unit (TDU) for monitoring possible accidental critical reactions in uranium-processing facilities, (2) to study the precision and accuracy of the TDU, and (3) to evaluate the ORNL film badge in mixed neutron-gama radiation fields.
