Waste Minimization - Column Waste Recycle to Dissolver

SRNL will determine through literature search and laboratory experimentation the flowsheet parameters necessary to safely and effectively dissolve, process, and neutralize used nuclear fuel (UNF) by blending with High Aluminum/Low Uranium (HA/LU) UNF in H-Canyon. The flowsheet will include fuels similar to the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) fuel bundles that can safely be charged to the dissolver without exceeding hydrogen Lower Flammability Limit (LFL). This task will simulate the dissolver solutions using non-rad components.
