THE PILOT PLANT OPERATION OF A VERTICAL TUBE, RECIRCULATING DISSOLVER FOR THE DISSOLUTION OF URANIUM DIOXIDE IN NITRIC ACID

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4152703
The results of a series of pilot plant dissolutions of UO/sub 2/ in HNO/ sub 3/, carried out in a vertical tube recirculating dissolver, are presented. Dissolution rates under recirculating conditions were essentially the same as rates predicted from batch data. (C.J.G.)
