Preparation of uranium oxide powder for nuclear fuel pellet fabrication with uranium peroxide recovered from uranium oxide scraps by using a carbonate–hydrogen peroxide solution
This work studied a way to reclaim uranium from contaminated UO2 oxide scraps as a sinterable UO2 powder for UO2 fuel pellet fabrication, which included a dissolution of the uranium oxide scraps in a carbonate so...

Columnar grain growth of yttria-stabilized-zirconia in inductively coupled plasma spraying
Yttria-stabilized-zirconia (YSZ) was deposited 7 mm thick by inductively coupled plasma spraying (ICP) and a theory of nucleation and solidification of YSZ was introduced. The concentration was homogeneous wit...

Extraction and strip** behavior of U–Np–Tc ternary system to TBP
In order to remove U, Tc, and Np, which are positioning materials or target nuclides for transmutation, from the high-level radioactive waste, conditions of co-extraction and sequential strip** of the nuclid...

Characterization of irradiated simulated DUPIC fuel
A simulated DUPIC (Direct Use of Spent PWR Fuel in CANDU Reactors) fuel was irradiated at HANARO research reactor of KAERI in 1999. Post-irradiation examinations, such as measurements of γ-scanning, profilomet...

The thermal diffusivity of simulated DUPIC fuel for irradiation test
The thermal diffusivity of simulated DUPIC fuel with an equivalent burnup of 35,000 MWd/tU (3.73 at.%), which was to be tested for irradiation at the HANARO research reactor, was measured using the laser flash...

Oxidation State and Extraction of Neptunium with TBP
The change of Np oxidation state in nitric acid and the effect of nitrous acid on the oxidation state were analyzed by spectrophotometry, solvent extraction, and electrochemical methods. The Np extraction with...

A liquid-liquid static contactor using capillary phenomena induced by a highly packed fiber bundle
A new static contactor was developed for solvent extraction using capillary phenomena induced among clearances formed within a highly packed fiber bundle. Feeding two immiscible phases cocurrently into the fib...
