During Fiscal Year 2012 (FY-12), Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne) submitted a series of letter reports as the process for periodic cleanup of the SHINE target solution was first down-selected from a variety of options and then developed. These reports, in order of submission, were as follows: Use of Uranyl Peroxide Precipitation as a Means to Clean up Irradiated Uranyl Sulfate Target Solutions (February 28, 2012); UREX Flowsheet for Cleanup of a Spent 130 g-U/L Uranyl Sulfate SHINE Target Solution (March 29, 2012); Addendum to the Letter Report UREX Flowsheet for Cleanup of a Spent 130 g-U/L Uranyl Sulfate SHINE Target Solution of March 29, 2012 (May 18, 2012); and Centrifugal Contactor Operations for UREX Process Flowsheet (May 21, 2012). Results on cleanup development were also presented at the SHINE technical meeting on August 23, 2012. This report will present results from two experiments; the results of the first experiment were presented at that meeting, and the second experiment was performed after the meeting.
