Requirement of decontamination factor for near-surface disposal of PEACER wastes

Three-dimensional multispecies current density simulation of molten-salt electrorefining

“…Uranium throughput is determined by electrorefiner geometry, the chemical state of electrolytic cell, and operating conditions such as mixing effect, applied current, and cell voltage [15]. Uranium in final waste stream from pyroprocessing should be decontaminated with TRU for reducing radioactive hazard and management periods [16]. To increase process throughput and prevent local TRU deposition at the cathode, it is important to achieve high applied current with uniform distribution.…”
