BURN-LEACH PROCESSES FOR GRAPHITE-BASE

2017-2-3  Processing of graphite-base high-temperature gas-cooled reactor fuels containing carbon-coated carbide or oxide particles is discussed. The most promising process consists of burning of the fuel in a fluidized-bed of inert alumina followed by leaching of the product bed with Thorex reagent to recover the uranium and thorium.

2017-6-1  Abstract. Since its first successful use in the CP-1 nuclear reactor in 1942, nuclear graphite has played an important role in nuclear reactors especially the high temperature gas-cooled type (HTGRs) owing to its outstanding comprehensive nuclear properties. As the most promising candidate for generation IV reactors, HTGRs have two main designs ...

Hydrogen Production in Methane Decomposition Reactor

This study investigates the decomposition of methane using solar thermal energy as a heat source. Instead of the direct thermal decomposition of the methane at a temperature of 1200 °C or higher, a catalyst coated with carbon black on a metal foam was used to lower the temperature and activation energy required for the reaction, and to increase the yield. To supply solar heat during the ...
