Decontamination Study of Some Noticeable Fission Products in the Actinides Recovery by Truex Process
نویسندگان
چکیده
Decontamination performance of some noticeable fission products from TRU elements by the TRUEX process was calculated with a multistage extraction simulation code. The batch extraction data of molybdenum, palladium, antimony, and cerium, which have been obtained in our related TRUEX studies, were provided for the calculation. For uranium, plutonium, and americium, literature data were used. A mixed solvent of 0.2 M OφD[IB]CMPO and 1.0 M TBP in n-dodecane was employed as the TRUEX solvent. The feed and scrub solutions were nitric acid solutions, and the distribution of nitric acid between the organic and aqueous phases was calculated by modified SEPHIS code. The change in the decontamination performance by adding oxalic acid was also evaluated.

Some Modifications of the TRUEX Flowsheet for Partitioning of Actinides Elements in High Level Liquid Waste
PNC has been promoting actinides partitioning studies as a part of advanced reprocessing system development efforts since 1990. Concurrently, the general TRUEX process was investigated as a reference partitioning tool. A concentrated high level liquid waste (llLLW) from LWR fuel reprocessing and a highly active raffinate (HAR) from FBR spent fuel PUREX experiments were nominated as target waste...

The search for an optimum strategy of rad-waste disposal is an extremely complex task depending on economic parameters and long tenrI hazard estimates for which public consent still has to be achieved. Among the different options attention focuses on the possibilities of transmuting radio-nuclei such as minor actinides and long lived fission products by neutrons generated in spallation processe...

Dissolution of UO2, U3O8, and solid solutions of actinides in UO2 in subacid aqueous solutions (pH 0.9-1.4) of Fe(III) nitrate was studied. Complete dissolution of the oxides is attained at a molar ratio of ferric nitrate to uranium of 1.6. During this process actinides pass into the solution in the form of U(VI), Np(V), Pu(III), and Am(III). In the solutions obtained U(VI) is stable both at ro...

Fission of 238U nuclei was performed by 45-69 MeV protons at the Cyclotron and Radioisotope Center of Tohoku University in Japan. The fission products originated in the reaction were identified by using gamma spectroscopy. The experimental data show that the charge distribution of isobar fission products follows a Gaussian distribution with a standard deviation independent of the selected mass...

The TRUEX process is being evaluated at the Idaho Chemical Processing Plant (ICPP) for the separation of the actinides from acidic radioactive wastes stored at the ICPP. These efforts have culminated in recent demonstrations of the TRUEX process with actual tank waste. The first demonstration was performed in 1996 using 24 stages of 2-cm diameter centrifugal contactors and waste from tank WM183...
