The Climatology of the National Reactor Testing Station

Description: This is the first in a series of three climatological reports on the National Reactor Testing Staton; those that follow will be the Engineering Climatology and Diffusion Climatology. This report is concerned with the general climatology of the area with particular emphasis on temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, snowfall, winds, pressure and special phenomena. The reasons for any significant variations in the observed meteorological parameters are discussed.

Current Status and Potential of Irradiation to Prevent Potato Sprouting

Description: The present technical status and estimated costs of irradiation to prevent sprouting in potatoes are examined in light of recent developments in the potato industry and in food irradiation. It is concluded that under present market conditions, wide-spread use of irradiation as a sprout inhibitor in the U.S. is not likely.

Effect of First Cycle Scrub Ration Reduction on Decontamination in the "25" Process

Description: The scrub flow ratio in the first cycle of the Hexone solvent extraction process for the recovery and decontamination of uranium from aluminum-uranium alloy fuels has been reduced by a factor of 10. A minimum flow ration of scrub : feed : extractant of 1: 79 : 67 has been plant-tested. Uranium losses were unaffected, and overall fission product decontamination for three cycles was changed only slighty

Environmental Aspects of the Materials Testing Reactor Operation

Description: The U.S. Weather Bureau and the U.S. Geological Survey have prepared reports for the MTR Site. The Weather Bureau was prepared specifically for the December, 1952 meeting of the Reactor Safeguard Committe and contains the latest theoretical estimates of ground concentrations of stack effluent based on two years of meteorological observations using a tower the same height as the MTR stack. The report of the U.S. Geological Survey was developed from investigations directed primarily toward eval… more
