Savannah River National Laboratory will determine through literature search and laboratory experimentation the flowsheet parameters necessary to safely and effectively dissolve, process, and neutralize used nuclear fuel by blending with High Aluminum/Low Uranium used nuclear fuel in H-Canyon. The flowsheet will include fuels similar to the University of Missouri Research Reactor fuel bundles that can safely be charged to the dissolver without exceeding hydrogen Lower Flammability Limit.
