The Transuranium Processing Facility will isolate the transuranium elements produced by the irradiation of Pu/sup 242/ and Am/sup 243/-Cm/sup 244/ in the High Flux Isotope Reactor presently under construction at ORNL. The facility is designed for the production and cumulative storage of up to 4 g of Cf/ sup 252/ which will be ultimately employed for research purposes. The facility will consist of nine heavily shielded process cells and eight laboratories. The toxicity of the heavier transuranium elements justifies a refined building containment and ventilation system. The building is scheduled for full-scale operation by December 1965, at an estimated cost of 7 million. (auth)
