Abstract

Fission products are removed from a nuclear reactor fuel comprising a homogeneous aqueous solution of uranyl sulphate by adding to the solution a chemical substance which increases the rate of formation of a separate phase containing the fission products. Addition of a sulphate of cerium, aluminium, chromium, or iron assists the precipitation of rare earth sulphates; the rate of precipitation of fission product strontium and barium sulphates is increased by adding barium sulphate. To remove halogens, silver sulphate, with or without iodine, is added to precipitate silver halides; alternatively iodine may be separated as a gaseous phase by feeding a gaseous stream of natural iodine through the solution.
