Processing of irradiated, enriched uranium fuels at the Savannah River Plant

Processing of irradiated, enriched uranium fuels at the Savannah River Plant [electronic resource]

Uranium fuels containing /sup 235/U at enrichments from 1.1% to 94% are processed and recovered, along with neptunium and plutonium byproducts. The fuels to be processed are dissolved in nitric acid. Aluminum-clad fuels are disssolved using a mercury catalyst to give a solution rich in aluminum. Fue...
