Description/Abstract:
REPORTS EXPERIMENTS PERFORMED TO DEMONSTRATE THE UTILITY OF ISOTOPE DILUTION AS A MEANS OF IMPROVING ZR DECONTAMINATION IN THE PUREX SYSTEM. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DISTRIBUTION COEFFLUENT OF TRACER ZE AND 0.1 UNDERLINED M ZR WAS ABOUT 3. ON THE BASIS OF THE HIGH ZR CONCENTRATION NECESSARY TO ACHEIVE THIS EFFECT, ISOTOPE DILUTION DOES NOT APPEARS AN ATTRACTIVE WAY OF IMPROVING ZR DECONTAMINATION IN PUREX.
