A study of mass transfer in a continuous-flow mixing chamber, fluoride volatilization separations process, corrosion testing in fused fluoride systems, behavior of Pu during volatilization of UF/sub 6/, preparation of PuF/sub 6/ by fluorination of PuF/sub 4/, particle size distribution and U content of UF/sub 4/ , stoichiometric behavior of the reaction IF/sub 5/ + F/sub 2/ + I/sub ignition data on stainless steel, were reported. Studies were continued on the analysis of crude green salt from U ore concentrates, fluidized-bed green salt pilot plant, calcination of reactor fuel wastes, reactor chemistry, chemical- metallurgical separation processes, waste processing operations, and the operation of the gammairradiation facility.
