DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4828838· OSTI ID:4828838

Developments in chemical engineering are described. Pyrometallurgical development, fuel-processing facilities for EBR-II, pyrometallurgical research, laboratory and engineering-scale investigations of fluoride volatility processes, conversion of UF/sup 6/ to UO/sup 2/, calcination studies in small-diamenter columns, metal oxidation and ignition kinetics, metal-water reactions, determination of nuclear constants, thermally regenerative emf cell, thermoelectricity research, reactor decontamination, waste processing, and the high-level gamma-irradiation facility are discussed.
