ANODIC PROCESS OF ELECTROREFINING PENT NUCLEAR FUEL IN MOLTEN LICl-KCl-UCl_3

摘要

The need for the treatment of spent nuclear fuel has increased substantially over the last decade.Several methods of treatment are being investigated throughout the nuclear industry [1-3].Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) has developed and demonstrated an electrometallurgical process for the Department of Energy (DOE) to treat sodium bonded spent nuclear fuels [4].
