Synthesis and Characterization of a Water Stable Uranyl(V) Complex

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Radmila Faizova

We have identified a polydentate aminocarboxylate ligand that stabilizes uranyl(V) in water. The mononuclear [UO2(dpaea)]X, (dpaeaH2 = Bis(pyridyl-6-methyl-2-carboxylate)-ethylamine; X = CoCp2*+ or X = K(2.2.2.cryptand) complexes have been isolated from an ...

Design of Separated Element Reflector Experiments in CROCUS: PETALE

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Pavel Frajtag, Daniel Jerôme Siefman, Stefan Radman

The present article describes the preliminary design studies for an oncoming experimental programme at the CROCUS facility. CROCUS is a teaching and research zero-power reactor operated by the Laboratory for Reactor Physics and Systems Behaviour (LRS) at t ...

Reactor Dynamics Investigation Based On Calorimetric Data

Thierry Meyer, Francis Stoessel, Michal Dabros, Charles Ibrahim Guinand

A simple and general procedure has been developed to determine the thermal behaviour of a reactor based on heat balance, PID temperature control, and jacket behaviour. Using only temperature heating/cooling ramps followed by isothermal stages, such a proce ...

Future experimental programmes in the CROCUS reactor

Andreas Pautz, Mathieu Hursin, Vincent Pierre Lamirand, Oskari Ville Pakari, Pavel Frajtag

CROCUS is a teaching and research zero-power reactor operated by the Laboratory for Reactor Physics and Systems Behaviour (LRS) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL). Three new experimental programmes are scheduled for the forthcoming years. ...

Study of Hypochlorite Reduction Related to the Sodium Chlorate Process

Michael Markus Busch

Reduction of hypochlorite is the most important side reaction in the sodium chlorate reactor leading to high energy losses. Today chromate is added to the reactor solution to minimize the hypochlorite reduction but a replacement is necessary due to health ...

Nondiffusive transport regimes for suprathermal ions in turbulent plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Kyle Gustafson, Alexandre Dominique Bovet

The understanding of the transport of suprathermal ions in the presence of turbulence is important for fusion plasmas in the burning regime that will characterize reactors, and for space plasmas to understand the physics of particle acceleration. Here, thr ...

Dynamic aggregation of the mid-sized gadolinium complex {Ph-4[Gd(DTTA)(H2O)(2)](-)(3)}

Lothar Helm, Pascal Miéville, Hugues Jaccard

A compound binding three Gd3+ ions, {Ph-4Gd(DTTA)(H2O)(2) (3)} (where H(5)DTTA is diethylenetriaminetetraacetic acid), has been synthesized around a hydrophobic center made up of four phenyl rings. In aqueous solution the molecules start to self-aggre ...

Gamma-ray spectrometric measurements of fission rate ratios between fresh and burnt fuel following irradiation in a zero-power reactor

Rakesh Chawla

The gamma-ray activity from short-lived fission products has been measured in fresh and burnt UO2 fuel samples after irradiation in a zero-power reactor. For the first time, short-lived gamma-ray activity from fresh and burnt fuel has been compared and fre ...

Bromate catalytic reduction in continuous mode using metal catalysts supported on monoliths coated with carbon nanofibers

Lioubov Kiwi

Nitrogen-doped and un-doped carbon nanofibers layers, denoted as N-CNFs and CNFs respectively, coating the walls of cordierite monoliths have been used as support for Pd and Ru catalyst. They have been tested in bromate reduction in batch and continuous op ...
