OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SEPARATION OF ELEMENTS IN MULTICOMPONENT MIXTURE UNDER HEATING
Abstract
Considered the elemental and isotopic composition of fission products in spent nuclear fuel. Analyzed thermal characteristics (melting point, evaporation temperature, the binding energy, the value of the vapor pressure) of the elements of spent nuclear fuel, and consider the possibility of removing impurities at the stage of thermal heating. Proposed simulation environment for the separation of spent nuclear fuel.
