One of the main characteristics of heavy water research reactors is their high production of plutonium. This work demonstrates the possibility of reduction of plutonium production and other actinides in heavy water research reactors. Among the many ways for reducing plutonium production in a heavy water reactor, in this research, changing the fuel from natural uranium to thorium-uranium mixed f...
متن کاملEvaluation of Radon ́s Emission in Ornamental Rocks
The representative organizations of the sector of ornamental rocks had looked the Commission of Nuclear Energy by means of the Center of Mineral Technology Espirito Santo (CETEM-ES) requesting aid how much the evaluation of levels of radiation in Brazilian ornamental rocks, exported to U.S.A. for use as material coverings in residences. Exhalation of radon (Rn) from these exotic granites may ex...
متن کاملSimultaneous spectrophotometric determination of uranium and thorium by flow injection analysis using selective masking.
A flow injection system for the simultaneous determination of uranium and thorium has been developed by using selective masking and a spectrophotometric detector with two flow cells aligned with the same optical path. The injected sample solution was first mixed with a reagent solution containing Chromazurol S (CAS) and cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTMAC), and the total absorbance of uraniu...
متن کاملNatural Radioactivity and Radon Concentrations in Parenteral Nutrition Samples Utilized in Iraqi Hospitals
Introduction: This study was conducted to measure the gamma emitters (e.g., uranium-238 [238U], thorium-232 [232Th], and potassium-40[40K]) and alpha emitters (e.g., radon-222 [222Rn] and radium), and also to evaluate the radiation hazard indices of radionuclides in parenteral nutrition samples utilized in the hospitals of Iraq. Material and Methods: The measurements were accomplished using ga...
متن کاملComparison of (Th-233U) O2 and (Th-235U) O2 fuel burn up into a thermal research reactor using MCNPX 2.6 code
Background: Decrease of economically accessible uranium resources motivates consideration of breeding of fertile elements such as thorium. Material and Method: Thorium oxide fuel burn up calculation of a simulated research reactor cooled heavy water has been proposed in the present work using MCNPX 2.6 code. Two 233U and 235U isotopes have been used as fissile element of thorium oxide fuel. 135...
