The original goal of the micro-SHINE experiments was to confirm that precipitation of uranyl peroxide can be prevented by adding a catalyst such as FeSO₄ to destroy peroxide. After successfully demonstrating that FeSO₄ is an effective catalyst for peroxide destruction, subsequent micro-SHINE solutions were used as tracers to perform a Mo-separation and recovery column experiment, a sulfate-to-nitrate conversion, and iodine speciation experiments.
