Title: C-616 UF$sub 6$ HYDROLYSIS FUMES

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4212871· OSTI ID:4212871

Experiments were carried out to determine how fast the concentration of suspended material decreases in fumes produced by the hydrolysis of UF/sub 6/ vapor in damp air. The rate of aggregation is a function chiefly of the number of particles per unit gas volume, but depends also on the chemical composition, size and shape of the particles, the temperature and pressure, and the degree of agitation. The rate of settling depends on the weight and shape of the particles and the viscosity of the gas. (W.L.H.)
