Book Processing Fissile Material Mixtures Containing Zirconium And or Carbon

Download or read book Processing Fissile Material Mixtures Containing Zirconium And or Carbon written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method of processing spent TRIZO-coated nuclear fuel may include adding fluoride to complex zirconium present in a dissolved TRIZO-coated fuel. Complexing the zirconium with fluoride may reduce or eliminate the potential for zirconium to interfere with the extraction of uranium and/or transuranics from fission materials in the spent nuclear fuel.

Book Safety and Security of Commercial Spent Nuclear Fuel Storage

Download or read book Safety and Security of Commercial Spent Nuclear Fuel Storage written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-02-19 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a request from Congress, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Department of Homeland Security sponsored a National Academies study to assess the safety and security risks of spent nuclear fuel stored in cooling pools and dry casks at commercial nuclear power plants. The information provided in this book examines the risks of terrorist attacks using these materials for a radiological dispersal device. Safety and Security of Commercial Spent Nuclear Fuel is an unclassified public summary of a more detailed classified book. The book finds that successful terrorist attacks on spent fuel pools, though difficult, are possible. A propagating fire in a pool could release large amounts of radioactive material, but rearranging spent fuel in the pool during storage and providing emergency water spray systems would reduce the likelihood of a propagating fire even under severe damage conditions. The book suggests that additional studies are needed to better understand these risks. Although dry casks have advantages over cooling pools, pools are necessary at all operating nuclear power plants to store at least the recently discharged fuel. The book explains it would be difficult for terrorists to steal enough spent fuel to construct a significant radiological dispersal device.

Book Nuclear Engineering Handbook

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building upon the success of the first edition, the Nuclear Engineering Handbook, Second Edition, provides a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of nuclear power engineering. Consisting of chapters written by leading experts, this volume spans a wide range of topics in the areas of nuclear power reactor design and operation, nuclear fuel cycles, and radiation detection. Plant safety issues are addressed, and the economics of nuclear power generation in the 21st century are presented. The Second Edition also includes full coverage of Generation IV reactor designs, and new information on MRS technologies, small modular reactors, and fast reactors.

Book Segregation in Vacuum Arc Remelted Zirconium Alloy Ingots

Download or read book Segregation in Vacuum Arc Remelted Zirconium Alloy Ingots written by A. Jardy and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vacuum arc remelting of zirconium alloy ingots is a key step in the manufacturing process of fuel assembly components in nuclear reactors. The control of the analytical homogeneity is indeed fundamental to ensure the quality and the in-reactor performance of the final products. For this reason, together with other industrial companies, AREVA NP/CEZUS has undertaken for more than 20 years a partnership with the Nancy School of Mines, which has developed a specific code named SOLidification during Arc Remelting (SOLAR). The mathematical model is based on the solution of the coupled transient heat, momentum, and solute transport equations, under laminar or turbulent flow conditions, during the remelting and cooling of a cylindrical ingot. An important part of the overall work is the careful validation of numerical simulations. For this purpose, specific sets of thermophysical data have been determined for various zirconium alloys. The model results show good agreement with the observation of 6 tons ingots remelted under industrial conditions. The specific case of a single melt M5TMM5 is a trademark of AREVA NP. ingot was recently studied. The corresponding results are presented and discussed. The chemistry analysis has been enriched with structure examinations, aiming at improving the knowledge of solidification mechanisms in zirconium alloys. The use of SOLAR code to evaluate the ingot chemistry contributes to constantly improving the melting process applied to zirconium alloys in AREVA NP/CEZUS.

Book Container for Reprocessing and Permanent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel Assemblies

Download or read book Container for Reprocessing and Permanent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel Assemblies written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A single canister process container for reprocessing and permanent storage of spent nuclear fuel assemblies comprising zirconium-based cladding and fuel, which process container comprises a collapsible container, having side walls that are made of a high temperature alloy and an array of collapsible support means wherein the container is capable of withstanding temperature necessary to oxidize the zirconium-based cladding and having sufficient ductility to maintain integrity when collapsed under pressure. The support means is also capable of maintaining their integrity at temperature necessary to oxide the zirconium-based cladding. The process container also has means to introduce and remove fluids to and from the container.
