- W4214826181 abstract "on UO/sub 2/. The thermal decomposition of PuF/sub 6/ was investigated at 300 deg C by several methods that showed the reaction products to be fluorine and PuF/ sub 4/. A brief study was made on the rate of fluorine consumption by Ni vessels at temperatures from 300 to 600 deg C. Development work has continued on thc fused flouride process for the recovery of enriched U from Zr-matrix fuel alloys. Studies of alternate methods of contacting in the fused salt fluorination step are under way. In one scheme, dropwise fluorination is carried out by spraying molten salt into a fluorine atmosphere. Another scheme involves the use of a frozen salt wall to serve as container of the fused salt during fluorination. Further corrosion data are reported on the behavior of Ni and Ni alloys in fluorinated NaF --ZrF/sub 4/ systems at 600 deg C. Liquid Metal-Fuel Reprocessing. Laboratory work to demonstrate the practicality of the fused fluoride volatility process for the LMFR fuel is being continued. The rapid extraction of U from Bi, very low in Mg concentration, was quantitatively demonstrated. Extraction of Ce from Bi, low in Mg concentration, by the molten fluoride salt has also been accomplished. The partial extraction of U and radioactive Ru from Bi with Zn was demonstrated. Bismuth pentafluoride was prepared by the direct reaction of fluorine with Bi. Fluidization Studies. Development work on the process for the recovery of U from low U-high Zr alloys (ADF process) was continued. As a part of a study to correlate U removal during fluorination with species of ZrF/ sub 4/ formed at various temperatures, identification of fluid-bed dryer products was attempted. Fluorinations in the 21/2-in-diam.. fluid-bed unit succeeded in removing about 99% of the U in four hours at 600 deg C and 12 hours at 500 deg C from materials prepared in a fluid-bed dryer at 300 deg C. Laboratory fluorination studies showed metal additives to U--Zr feed solutions had no inhibiting effect on U volatilization. In the fluid-bed waste calcination process currently under investigation, liquid radioactive wastes are spray injected into a heated fluidized bed of solid particles. A study of the factors influencing particle growth in a fluid-bed Calciner was started. Reactor Chemistry. The study of factors influencing pyrophoricity and oxidation of the reactor materials U, Zr, Th, and Pu has continued. In the U burning-curve tests, variation of the O/sub 2/ flow rate has shown a negligible effect. An ignition test has been developed in which Zr foil specimens were electrically heated to a high temperature in very short times. The oxidation of 60 binary Zr alloys was completed. A short-term study of Mg ignition has shown disagreements with the results of earlier experimenters. The experimental program to determine rates of reaction of molten reactor fuel and cladding metals with water is continuing. The relative values of the neutron-capture cross section of U for monoenergetic neutrons in the energy range 0.36 to 1.50 Mev have been determined. Chemical- Metallurgical Processing. Melt refining, liquid metal extraction, and intermetallic crystallization are now being examined as direct-cycle pyrometallurgical methods of processing" @default.
