Reaction of formaldehyde and nitric acid in a remotely operated thermosiphon evaporator

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6341723
; ;
Conditions have been developed for the safe and successful use of a method for reacting formaldehyde with excess nitric acid, while simulataneously concentrating a fissile uranium nitrate solution. This process, which is being conducted in a remotely operated thermosiphon evaporator, has been adapted to plant scale and is being used to process multikilogram batches.
