Dissolution of U-Al alloy and Th metal with Evaluation of Gas Generation and Evaluation for the Neutralization of Sodium Reactor Experiment (SRE) Fuel Simulant

SRNL will determine through literature search and laboratory experimentation the flowsheet parameters necessary to safely and effectively dissolve, process, and neutralize the Sodium Reactor Experiment (SRE) used nuclear fuel (UNF) by blending with High Aluminum/Low Uranium (HA/LU) UNF in H-Canyon. The flowsheet will include the number of fuel bundles that can safely be charged to the dissolver without exceeding hydrogen Lower Flammability Limit (LFL).
