TESTS OF A VAPOR-SPACE FEED NOZZLE FOR CALCINING ALUMINUM NITRATE SOLUTIONS IN A FLUIDIZED BED
An investigation was conducted to determine the performance of a vapor- space feed nozzle which sprayed aluminum nitrate solution on the surface of a fluidized bed calciner. Results indicate that this type of feed system is satisfactory for calcining aqueous wastes from the processing of spent aluminum- type nuclear fueIs. Process and product control were achieved by adjusting the volumetric ratio of the air to the liquid fed to the nozzIe. The results obtained at various operating conditions are compared with those from a pneumatic atomizing nozzle submerged below the surface of the fluidized bed. (auth)
