Thermal Stability of Gadolinum Nitrate Solution at High Temperature

Description: During a feasibility study of auxiliary shutdown systems for the Spert II and Spert III reactor facilities, salts possessing high neutron absorption cross sections were considered for use in water soluble poison injection systems, and gadolinium nitrate appeared promising. Tests were carried out in a high pressure static autoclave to determine the stability of gadolinium nitrate solution at elevated temperature. At temperatures of 300 deg F and above, the solution decomposed with formation of a… more

CORROSION ASSOCIATED WITH FLUORINATION IN THE OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY FLUORIDE VOLATILITY PROCESS

Description: : : 9 7 7 8 6 9 : = 7 9 9used during the fluorination of fused-salt fuels and subsequent associated operations in the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Fluoride Volatility Process was evaluated. Corrosive attack is reported as mils per month based on molten salt residence time or mils per hour based on fluorine exposure time. Two fluorinators were used in the VPP to carry out the fluorination reactions. These vessels, Mark I and Mark II, were fabricated into right cylinders, approx 4 1/2 ft … more

Some Properties of Beryllium Oxide

Description: S>The primary objective of the literature search was to determine the best values for the properties involved in the thermal stress parameter. Comparison of data from various investigators indicates that thermal expansion of beryllia is independent of density. A wide variation was found in the thermal conductivity values of beryllia. Graphs and tables are presented which summarize and compare data from various sources. A bibliography of 53 references for some of the major items of the stress pa… more

Amine Extraction of Plutonium From Nitric Acid Solutions Loading and Stripping Experiments

Description: Information is presented on a suitable amine processing system for plutonium nitrate. Experiments with concentrated plutonium nitrate solutions show that trilaurylamine (TLA) - xylene solvent systems did not form a second organic phase. Experiments are also reported with tri-noctylamine (TnOA)-xylene and TLA-Amsco - octyl alcohol. Two organic phases appear in both these systems at high plutonium nitrate concentrations. Data are tabulated from loading and stripping experiments. (J.R.D.)
