LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS IN SUPPORT OF FLUID-BED FLUORIDE VOLATILITY PROCESSES. PART XVI. THE FLUORINATION OF UO$sub 2$--PuO$sub 2$-FISSION-PRODUCT OXIDE PELLETS WITH FLUORINE IN A 2-INCH-DIAMETER FLUID-BED REACTOR.
“…Anastasia et al (1967;1969) have shown that the fluorination of PuF 6 in a fluidized-bed reactor is affected by the conditions used in the fluorination of uranium with fluorine, by the conditions used for the fluorination of plutonium, and by the presence of the added fission products (Gendre 1962;Steindler and Steidl 1957;Vandenbussche 1966). Use of aggressive fluorinating reagents essentially should fluorinate everything such that the plutonium should be last to be removed in the overall design of a fluoride volatility reprocessing scheme.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
