Pyrometallurgical Purification of Plutonium Reactor Fuels

Résumé du livre

Pyrometallurgical methods studied are liquation, self-drossing and filtration, slagging by the addition of oxide, carbide, or halide, liquid metal extraction, complete conversion to halide, followed by filtration and selective reduction of the plutonium, and electrorefining. Experimental techniques and results are presented for each method. (auth).
