Abstract
The intermetallic compound of aluminum-dispersed UsSi, is used for
Hanaro Reactor(Korea Multipurpose Research Reactor, KMRR) and
U-Zr alloy nuclear fuel is under the development for a Liquid Metal
Reactor in KAERI. Depleted uranium wastes are generated in forms of
chips, scraps and powder during the manufacturing processes of
alloy-type nuclear fuels. As a radioactive waste treatment method has
not yet been fixed for these wastes, they are currently being stored in
a temporary storage house for later treatment. When storing
depleted uranium wastes, careful handling is required due to their very
high oxidation rates.
To determine the oxidation mechanism and the oxidation rate of
depleted uranium wastes, and to find important factors to be considered
in their treatment, an experiment was carried out by varying the
heating rates of an Air-Controlled Oxidizer. The experiment showed
that depleted uranium wastes are pulverized by oxidation because of
the density difference and then converted to U3O8. The grain size of
pulverized powder decreases with increased temperature.
The oxidation rate is different depending on the alloy composition of
the wastes. The oxidation rate of the U~Si alloy waste per unit area
against temperature is as follows :[ -85.8W/>«o/|
dwldt = 6.92 x 106 e\ RT I mg/ cm2 h
That for U-Zr alloy waste is as follows '•I -57.Q2/fe//mo/|
dwl dt = 8.46 x 10 7 e \ RT I mg/ cm2 h

Abstract
When storing depleted tiranium wastes, careful handling is required due to
their very high oxidation rates.
To determine the oxidation mechanism and oxidation rate of depleted
uranium wastes, the most important factors to be considered in their treatment
, an experiment was carried out by varying the heating rates of the
Air-Controlled Oxidizer. The experiment, showed that depleted uranium
wastes are pulverized after complete oxidation because of the density difference
and then converted to UO2, U3O7, U3O8. The grain size of pulverized powder
decreases with increased temperature.
Subject Keywords
