DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4266618· OSTI ID:4266618
A summary of work on the problems of reprocessing Enrico Fermi Fast Breeder Reactor between July 1958 and January 1959 is given. Dissolution experience with the Zr-clad U-Mo fuel pins is related. Corrosion of the stainless steel waste evaporator was studied. Nuclear hazards, flow sheet design and chemistry, and waste handling studies are also reported. (For preceding period see BNL-511.)
