Studies were continued on the following: waste treatment by alkaline electrolytic destruction of nitrate; fabrication, dissolution, and solvent extraction of UO/sub 2/PuO/sub 2/ fuels; radiochemical properties of Cm and Pu isotopes; preparation and properties of PuF/sub 6/; corrosion and particle size measurements of UO/sub 2/-NaK slurries; alumina--water equilibria; and electrorefining and electrowinning of U from oxide. (For preceding period see KAPL-1491.) (C.W.H.)
