Application of Heavy Media Separation, Flotation and Carbonate Leaching to Congo Ores

Description: The investigation of magnesitic-dolomite uranium ores from Union Miniere du Haute Katanga, Belgian Congo, was undertaken in order to examine the possibility of separating the uranium minerals from the carbonate minerals by Heavy Media Separation or froth flotation; thus reducing the sulfuric acid consumption during the uranium leach. In addition, the effect of carbonate leaching the whole ore and carbonate flotation products was examined.

Recovery of Uranium From Congo Leach Liquors With Ion Exchange Resins

Description: A method is described for recovery of uranium from sulfuric acid leach liquors of Congo ores using anion exchange resins. Excellent uranium recoveries were obtained in cyclic tests which indicate uranium capacities of 11 to 26 lbs. of U3O8 per cubic foot of resin per day. Preliminary tests indicate that sulfuric acid may be as effective as hydrochloric acid in providing the required acidity in the eluant.

Vernatherm functional test, Test Project No. 14

Description: The Vernatherm unit is a temperature sensitive capsule which translates temperature change to mechanical movement of a brass plunger. A change in phase of a hydrocarbon contained in a cylinder caused by temperature change, causes movement of the brass plunger. The units are available for various temperature ranges. The adaptation considered was to monitor the outlet water temperature from individual process tubes in the ``G`` pile. The purpose of the test was to determine the magnitude of error… more

Preliminary investigation of the pressure fluctuations in the wakes of two-dimensional wings at low angles of attack

Description: Report presenting a measurement of the magnitudes of pressure fluctuations in the turbulent wakes of restrained two-dimensional airfoils at transonic speeds. Measurements indicated that the total-pressure fluctuations occurred only within the wake. Results regarding the magnitude of pressure oscillation in the wake, effect stream-angle fluctuations in the wake, and frequencies of pressure oscillation on the wing and in the wake are provided.

Experimental investigation of base pressure on blunt-trailing-edge wings at supersonic velocities

Description: From Summary: "Measurements of base pressure are presented for 29 blunt-trailing-edge wings having an aspect ratio of 3.0 and various airfoil profiles. The different profiles comprised thickness ratios between 0.05 and 0.10, boattail angles between -2.9 degrees and 20 degrees, and ratios of trailing-edge thickness to airfoil thickness between 0.2 and 1.0. The tests were conducted at Mach numbers of 1.25, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.1. For each Mach number, the Reynolds number and angle of attack were varie… more

Process considerations additional product concentration facilities in 202-S

Description: This memorandum discusses investigations concerning the coupling step required to adapt a Redox IIBP to a 234-5 feed which have indicated that a single peroxide strike from a solution 50--60 g./1. in product and about 2 M in nitric acid is adequate. Additional work is planned to demonstrate both peroxide and Pu(IV) oxalate strikes under these conditions. The present Redox PR cage product contains 10 g./1. in product and over 500 g./1. in nitric acid, and probably requires tow peroxide strikes; … more
