Modeling of Water Radiolysis at Spallation Neutron Sources

In spallation neutron sources neutrons are produced when a beam of high-energy particles (e.g., I GeV protons) collides with a (watercooled) heavy metal target such as tungsten. The resulting spallation reactions produce a complex radiation environment (which differs from typical conditions at fission and fusion reactors) leading to the radiolysis of water molecules. Most water radiolysis produ...

The Corrosion of Materials in Spallation Neutron Sources

During the past 30 years numerous particle accelerators have been developed around the world: the Fermi proton/anti-proton ring in Illinois, the KEK proton synchrotron in Japan, the CERN proton synchrotron in France, and the ISIS pulsed neutron spallation source in Oxford, to name a few. The world’s highest current spallation neutron source is the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) at L...

Water radiolysis by gamma –irradiation for high quality synthesis of Nickel Oxide nano sheet

A simple, time effective and cost effective, methos was reported for synthesis of nickel oxide nanostructure. The NiO nanostructure was synthesized by gamma-irradiation method from NiSO4 precursor. The solution was irradiated by 60Co gamma-ray source at the dose rate of 40 Gy/min for determined time. The synthesized powders are characterized by means of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Energy-di...

A Review of Radiolysis Concerns for Water Shielding in Fission Surface Power Applications

This paper presents an overview of radiolysis concerns with regard to water shields for fission surface power. A review of the radiolysis process is presented and key parameters and trends are identified. From this understanding of the radiolytic decomposition of water, shield pressurization and corrosion are identified as the primary concerns. Existing experimental and modeling data addressing...

Experimental Determination of Hydroxyl Radical Reactivity in Supercritical Water Using Pulse Radiolysis

Complete mineralization of hazardous organic compounds to innocuous products can be achieved using supercritical water oxidation (SCWO). At typical SCWO process conditions (500 – 650 °C), free radical chemistry has been shown to be the dominant reaction path. Detailed Chemical Kinetic Mechanisms (DCKM), consisting of elementary free-radical reactions, have been used to model the oxidation of a ...
